LOCATION
■ The appliance should be installed well away from sources of heat such as
radiators, boilers, direct sunlight, and so on. Ensure that air can circulate freely
around the back of the appliance cabinet. To ensure the best performance, the
minimum distance between the top of the appliance and any overhanging wall
unit is at least 50 mm. Ideally, the appliance should not be positioned below any
overhanging wall units.
■ Accurate levelling is ensured by one or more adjustable feet at the base of the
appliance cabinet.
■ This refrigerating appliance is not intended to be used as a built-in appliance.
Warning! It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the mains power
supply; the electrical plug must, therefore, be easily accessible after installation. This
refrigerating appliance is not intended to be used as a built-in appliance.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

shown on the rating plate corresponds with your domestic power supply. The
appliance must be grounded/earthed. The power supply cable plug is provided
with a contact for this purpose. If the domestic power supply socket is not
grounded, connect the appliance to a separate earth in compliance with current
regulations. Consult a qualified electrician.
■ The manufacturer declines all responsibility if the above safety precautions are
not observed.
■ This appliance complies with the E.E.C. Directives.
5/ USE
FIRST USE
Cleaning the Interior
Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal
accessories with lukewarm water and a neutral soap. Dry thoroughly. This will clear
the typical smell of a brand-new product.
Important! Do not use detergents or abrasive powders as these will damage the
finish.
Temperature Setting
■ Plug in your appliance. The internal temperature is controlled by a thermostat.
There are three settings available (see Figure 12) MIN, NORMAL, and MAX. MIN is
the warmest temperature and MAX is the coldest temperature setting.
■ The appliance may not operate at the correct temperature if it is in a particularly
hot location or if you open the door frequently.
