•
Always place the appliance on a moisture-resistant and
dry surface.
•
Place the appliance on a firm and flat surface (floor)
so that it is stable, otherwise vibrations and noise may
occur. When placing the appliance on floor coverings
such as carpets, straw mats or polyvinyl chloride (PVC),
place a solid sheet or cover under the appliance to
prevent colour change due to heat dissipation.
4. Clean
Before putting the appliance into use, clean the interior and
all associated accessories with lukewarm water and neutral
soap. Dry everything carefully. Do not use solvents or abrasive
powders; these may damage the coating.
5. Wait
On first installation (or after turning the door) wait at least four hours before plugging in the appliance. This allows
the oil to flow back into the compressor.
6. Switch on
Before plugging in the power cable, check that the voltage and frequency of the type plate match your power
supply network. Only connect the appliance to an earthed power socket. After one hour, open the door of the
appliance. If the temperature in the appliance is noticeably lower, this indicates that the cooling system is operating
normally.
7. Storing food
See Section 4 "Use".
