Installation warnings

Before using your freezer for the rst time, please pay attention to the following points:

• The operating voltage for your freezer is 220-240 V at 50Hz.

• The plug must be accessible after installation.

• Your freezer may have an odour when it is operated for the rst time. This is normal and

the odour will fade when your freezer starts to cool.

• Before connecting your freezer, ensure that the information on the data plate (voltage

and connected load) matches that of the mains electricity supply. If in doubt, consult a

qualied electrician.

• Insert the plug into a socket with an e󰀩cient ground connection. If the socket has no

ground contact or the plug does not match, we recommend you consult a qualied

electrician for assistance.

• The appliance must be connected with a properly installed fused socket. The power

supply (AC) and voltage at the operating point must match with the details on the name

plate of the appliance (the name plate is located on the inside left of the appliance).

• We do not accept responsibility for any damages that occur due to

ungrounded usage.

• Place your freezer where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight.

• Your freezer must never be used outdoors or exposed to rain.

• Your appliance must be at least 50 cm away from stoves, gas ovens and

heater cores, and at least 5 cm away from electrical ovens.

• If your freezer is placed next to a deep freezer, there must be at least 2 cm between

them to prevent humidity forming on the outer surface.

• Do not cover the body or top of freezer with lace. This will a󰀨ect the performance of your

freezer.

• Clearance of at least 150 mm is required at the top of your appliance. Do not place

anything on top of your appliance.

• Clean the appliance thoroughly before use (see Cleaning and Maintenance).

• Before using your freezer, wipe all parts with a solution of warm water and a teaspoon of

sodium bicarbonate. Then, rinse with clean water and dry. Return all parts to the freezer

after cleaning.

• Use the adjustable front legs to make sure your appliance is level and stable. You can

adjust the legs by turning them in either direction. This must be done before placing food

in the appliance.

• Install the two plastic distance guides (the parts on the black vanes -condenser- at the

rear) by turning it 90° (as shown in the gure) to prevent the condenser

from touching the wall.

• The distance between the appliance and back wall must be a maximum
