Installation
! Before placing your new appliance into operation
please read these operating instructions carefully.
They contain important information for safe use, for
installation and for care of the appliance.
! Please keep these operating instructions for future
reference. Pass them on to possible new owners of
the appliance.
Positioning and connection
Positioning
1. Place the appliance in a well-ventilated humidity-
free room.
2. Do not obstruct the rear fan grills. The compressor
and condenser give off heat and require good
ventilation to operate correctly and save energy.
3. Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of
heat (direct sunlight, electric stove, etc.).
Levelling
1. Install the appliance on a level and rigid floor.
2. If the floor is not perfectly horizontal, adjust the
refrigerator by tightening or loosening the front
feet.
Electrical connections
After the appliance has been transported, carefully
place it vertically and wait at least 3 hours before
connecting it to the electricity mains. Before
inserting the plug into the electrical socket ensure
the following:
• The appliance is earthed and the plug is
compliant with the law.
• The socket can withstand the maximum power of
the appliance, which is indicated on the data
plate located on the right side of the horizontal
surface in the top compartment, under the
thermostat (e.g. 150 W).
• The voltage is within the range of values indicated
on the data plate located on the right side of the
horizontal surface in the top compartment, under
the thermostat (e.g. 220-240V).
• The socket is compatible with the plug of the
appliance.
If the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an
authorised technician to replace it (
see
Assistance
). Do not use extension cords or
multiple sockets.
! Once the appliance has been installed, the power
supply cable and the electrical socket must be
easily accessible.
! The cable must not be bent or compressed.
! The cable must be checked regularly and replaced
by authorised technicians only (see Assistance).
! The manufacturer declines any liability should
these safety measures not be observed.
Your appliance is supplied with a 13amp fused plug
that can be plugged into a 13amp socket for
immediate use. Before using the appliance please
read the instructions below.
WARNING:
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
Replacing fuse covers:
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13amp ASTA
approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be used
and the fuse cover re-fitted.
If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used
until a replacement is obtained.
Replacement fuse covers:
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of
the correct colour as indicated by the coloured
marking or the colour that is embossed in words on
the base of the plug.
Changing the plug:
Removing the plug
If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug
and you should wish to remove it to add a longer
cable or to re-route the mains cable through
partitions, units etc. please ensure that either:
- The plug is replaced by a fused 13amp re-
wireable plug bearing the BSI mark of approval.
or
- The mains cable is wired directly into a 13amp
cable outlet, controlled by a switch (in compliance
with BS 5733) which is accessible without moving
the appliance.
Disposing of the plug
Cut off and dispose of the supplied plug if it does
not fit your socket. The cable should be cut as close
as possible to the moulded plug.
Remove the fuse.
WARNING:
To avoid a shock hazard do not insert the
discarded plug into a socket anywhere else.
