CAUTION:
the operations described below should be carried out in com-

is suitable for the weight of the appliance.
B.1.1 REMOVING THE PACKAGING
B.1.1.1 Removing the packaging and handling
Cut the straps and remove the protective film, taking care not to
scratch the sheet metal if scissors or blades are used. Remove
the top (in cardboard), the polystyrene corners and the vertical
protection pieces. For appliances with stainless-steel cabinets,
carefully remove the protective film without tearing it, to avoid
leaving glue stuck to the surface.
Should this happen, remove the traces of glue with a non-
corrosive solvent, rinsing it off and drying carefully. It is advisable
to go over all the s/steel surfaces with a rag soaked in vaseline
oil, in order to form a protective film. Use a transpallet or fork-
lift truck to lift appliances. Inserting the forks under the pallet, lift
the appliance and carry it to the place of installation, making sure
that the load is balanced.
WARNING:
during handling do not push or pull the unit: it may tip over or be
damaged.

binding laws in the country where the appliance is to be used.

B.2.1 POSITIONING
Install the equipment, taking all the safety precautions
required for this type of operation, also respecting
the relevant fire-prevention instructions.
Place the appliance in a ventilated room and away
from heat sources such as radiators or air-
conditioning systems, in order to allow the cooling
of the refrigerating unit components.
Never cover the condenser, not even temporarily, as
this may jeopardise the operation of both the
condenser and the appliance.
Make sure to position the appliance taking into consideration
the space needed for door opening.
Pay particular attention to levelling of the floor on which the
appliance stands, in order to ensure its optimal operation.
IMPORTANT:
level the appliance, otherwise its operation could be
compromised.
Use the height-adjustable feet to make sure the appliance is
level, and at the same time check that the door closes properly.

Should the appliance be installed in rooms where there are
corrosive substances (chlorine, etc.), it is advisable to go over
all the stainless steel surfaces with a cloth coated with vaseline
oil, in order to form a protective film.
