INSTALLATION

Before installing

- If you plan to REHANG the doors, do it
now. See the instructions.
- It is advisable to CLEAN the appliance
inside and out before starting.
Always use NON-ABRASIVE products
and avoid the use of SOLVENTS.

Levelling

The appliance has two rear CASTORS to aid
moving and positioning.
Level the appliance by adjusting the
LEVELLING FEET located at the bottom front
(figure 4).
We recommend that you have the appliance
TILTED very slightly backwards so that the
doors close without effort.

avoid VIBRATION AND RATTLE. It also
extends the life of the compressor.

HOURS before STARTING the appliance.

DATA PLATE is the same as your SUPPLY
voltage.
