5.1 Installation
Unpacking / Positioning
•Unpack the appliance, remove all external and internal packaging elements and
shipment safeguards.
CAUTION!
Choking hazard!
Prevent children from accessing package materials, for instance: plastic
bags and EPS.
•If the appliance is covered with a protective film, remove it. Remove the film
slowly, so no glue residues are left. Remove any glue residues with the use of a
suitable solvent.
•Be careful not to damage the rating plate and warning labels fixed on the
appliance.
•Never place the appliance in humid or wet environment.
•Place the appliance in a way making the connections easily accessible, so that
they may be quickly disconnected if such a need arises.
•The appliance should be placed on surfaces that are:
–even, with sufficient bearing capacity, resistant to water, dry and resistant
to high temperatures;
–sufficiently large, and thus enabling usage of the appliance with no
problems;
–easily accessible;
–well ventilated.
•Nie należy umieszcz ać urządzeni a w gorącym o toczeniu ani w pobliżu materiał ów łatwopalnych.
•The appliance requir ess ufficient airflow for proper operation. Assure a minimum lateral cl earance of the appliance of 10c m.
•DieÖ ffnungen am Gerät niemals abdecken o derbl ockieren.
•Do not place the appliance in direct sunlight or in the vicinity of heat sources
(cooker, radiator, heating devices, etc.). Heat sources may negatively affect
power consumption, and restrict functions of the appliance, too.
•Place the appliance so that sufficient air circulation is ensured. Leave 10 cm
clearance from walls and other objects.

Installation and operation

•In order to avoid damage to the compressor, do not tilt the appliance more than
45° when positioning or transporting it.
•If the appliance is to be relocated, follow the instructions below:
–switch the appliance off;
–disconnect the plug from the socket;
–take out contents of the appliance;
–tape firmly all loose elements in the internal chamber and tape the door;
–the appliance may only be transported in vertical position.

•Do not position the appliance in high humidity locations. Air relative humidity in
the place of installation should not exceed 60%. Excessive humidity may cause
rust and influence negatively the refrigerating efficiency of the device.
•The appliance should be installed only in rooms, in which ambient temperature
falls within the range of 10°C –25°C.
Changing the hinge side
WARNING!
Before changing the door's hinge side, disconnect the appliance and pull
the plug out of the socket.
Do not place the appliance in horizontal position in order to change the
door's hinge side.
The hinges may be changed from right to left, as needed. Engage at least one more
person to change the door's hinge side.
NOTE!
Detailed instruction of changing the hinge side may be requested. Please
contact our technical service.

Installation and operation
700807 13 / 24
EN
Power supply connection
•Verify if technical data of the appliance (see rating plate) correspond with the
local electric power grid specification.
•Connect the appliance to a single, properly grounded mains socket with
protective contact. Do not connect the appliance to a multi-socket.
•The power cord should be laid in a way preventing anyone from threading on it
or tripping against it.
•Prior to first use, the appliance should be installed and left standing upright for at
least 12 hours, before it is connected to power supply.
•After a power failure or when the plug is removed from the socket, do not
reconnect the appliance to power supply for at least 5 minutes.
5.2 Operation
Tips for the user
•Shelves may be positioned at various heights. Arrange them adequately to the
size of beverage/containers with food product, so that the inner space of the
appliance is used optimally.
•Beverages and food products in containers should be arranged on the shelves
so that proper distances between them allow for sufficient air circulation inside
the appliance. Insufficient distances hinder the cooling effect.
•To limit loss of cold air minimize the opening time of door during operation. Also,
do not open the door too frequently.
•If possible, in the event of a sudden power failure, avoid opening doors in order
to avoid loss of cool air.
•The power supply to the refrigerator should not be interrupted for more than 10
minutes.
•If the appliance is switched off for a longer period of time, the door of the
refrigerator should remain open.

Installation and operation
14 / 24 700807

Storing food in the refrigerator
For your appliance to operate the best way, follow the indications below:
•When inserting the food products, pay attention to free air circulation inside the
appliance.
•The more items in the refrigerator, and the longer the door kept open, the higher
the energy consumption.
•Food products or beverages should first be cooled to the suitable storage
temperature.
•If the food products are not cooled sufficiently prior to storing, the operating
efficiency of the appliance deteriorates and it may negatively influence the
cooled food products. Thus, avoid storing food products in rooms that are not
cool, for the cold might be lost when they are inserted in the refrigerator.
•The food products stored in the refrigerator should be packaged or covered.
•The food products with specific aromas, e.g.: fresh fish, foie gras, cheese,
should be stored in properly closed containers.
•Do not store bananas in the refrigerator because they are sensitive to low
temperatures.
