INSTALLATION

• Install the freezer away from heat sources. Installation in a
hot place, direct exposure to sunlight or placing it near a
heat source (radiators, cookers) will increase energy
consumption and should therefore be avoided.
• If this is not possible, the following minimum distances must
be respected:
• 30 cm from coal or oil stoves;
• 3 cm from electric and/or gas cookers.
• Install in a dry and well-ventilated place.
• Clean the inside (see "Defrosting and cleaning the
freezer").
• Fit the accessories supplied.
• Fit the spacers (Fig. 1, 2, or 3, depending on the model)

with local regulations.
• Data regarding voltage and electrical absorption are
specified on the rating plate inside the appliance.
Earthing of the appliance is compulsory by law
•
The Manufacturer declines any liability for injury to
persons and animals or damage due to non-
compliance with the above regulations.

socket replaced by a qualified technician.
• Do not use extension leads or multi-adapters.
Electrical disconnection
It must be possible to electrically disconnect the appliance by
unplugging it or by means of a double-pole switch installed
upstream of the socket.
Door reversibility
