WARNING! The appliance should be kept in a vertical position when transported, handled or stored and should
not be inclined for more than 45° (Fig. 1). If any such phases entail placing the product in a different position
to that recommended, wait at least 3 hours before starting the appliance once it is in the correct vertical

placed to avoid damaging the compressor.

Upon removing the packaging, check whether the appliance is intact and that no parts are missing. In the event of
defects or missing components, notify the dealer within the time limits specified by the law.

it is potentially dangerous.
