3. Installation
After unpacking, check the cabinet for any damage caused during transportation. In
the event of damage, please contact the forwarding company.
Allow the merchandiser to stand upright for at least 1 hour prior to connection to the
mains supply. This gives the oil time to run back to the compressor after transit and
installation.
This appliance is not intended for use by young children or
handicapped or infirm persons unless they are adequately
supervised by a responsible person who will ensure the safe
operation of the appliance on their part. Young children
should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
3.1 Installation instructions
Improper leveling might result in cabin deformation affecting
cooler performance.
a. Always ensure that your merchandiser is installed on level floor / counter. There
are 4 adjustable feet at the front and back under the chassis. Please adjust until
the ICM levels. Check using a spirit, if available.

4. Maintenance
PRIOR TO ANY CLEANING OR MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE,
UNPLUG THE ICM!
DO NOT DAMAGE THE REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT.

ENG
4.1 Preventive maintenance
xClean the condenser once or twice yearly using a vacuum cleaner.
xUse mildly soapy water to clean the interior of the ICM. Use a window-cleaning
agent to clean the glass surface. Use gloves when you clean the glass.
xPay the appropriate attention during the transportation of the cooler so that you
do not damage the LED/lamp, the front grille or the glass door.
Do not use alcohol/acid based cleaning agents.
4.2 Cleaning
Tend the area of the cooler and keep it clean and dry.
It is important to clean the merchandiser twice a year. In order to avoid mould
formation, odours, etc. product compartments must also be thoroughly cleaned. The
interior of the ICM has to be cleaned with a mild soapy cloth.
Keep the cooler in a stable position during cleaning.
For your safety, during cleaning the unit should be
unplugged from the wall socket.
Do not remove the safety devices (grates, guards, earthlings,
etc.).
Keep the cooler in a stable position during cleaning, do not
step on or lean over the cooler.
If one or more of the bottles break while in the appliance and
liquid spills inside the cabinet or the space surrounding the
appliance gets wet, unplug the cooler before you clean the
liquid around and inside the cooler. Remember to take all
necessary actions to protect yourselves from broken glass
(use protective gloves when cleaning).
4.3 General user information
The thermostat is located on the back side of the ICM. The thermostat is factory set to
approx. +2.5°C. If you require a higher temperature (warmer), turn the thermostat
knob anticlockwise. If you require a lower temperature (colder), turn the thermostat
knob clockwise.
4.4 Operation
Energy saving tips:
For energy saving and for the ICM’s better performance:
xLoad your ICM at night-time so that the drinks are cold once you get there in the
morning.
xStore your back-up stock in a cool and/or dark place so that when reloaded, the
ICMwill need much less time to cool them down.
xWipe moisture off the products before you place them in the ICM.
xAvoid opening the door for long periods of time.

7. Disposal of the unit
For detailed information regarding the recycling of this product, please contact your
local city office, your waste disposal service or the manufacturer through its service
agent. By ensuring this product is disposed of properly, you will help prevent potential
negative consequences for the environment and human health, which could otherwise
incur by this product’s inappropriate disposal.
8. Warranty
The appliance is covered by a warranty as this has been agreed upon sale.
9. Recycling information
1. Based on the objectives of environmental policy according to the European
Community (EC) directives for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE)1which aim to preserve, protect and improve the quality of the
environment, protect human health and utilize natural resources prudently and
rationally, as an end user, you are kindly requested to do the following:
xIf the appliance has stopped working, even after troubleshooting; first check if it
can be repaired, before disposing it. Contact your distributor or supplier for
further information on possible repairs of your appliance, if in doubt.
xIf the appliance has reached its “End of Lifecycle” (EOL), in other words, the
appliance is not repairable or re-usable, do not dispose of the appliance as
1References:
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) European Community (EC) Directive Nr.
2008/34/EC

ENG
unsorted municipal waste. Instead, please contact your local city office, your
waste disposal service or the manufacturer through its service agent to
separately collect the appliance for treatment and recycling.
Note: The disposal of electronic and electrical appliances in landfill sites or through
incineration creates a number of environmental problems. When obsolete materials
are not recycled, raw materials have to be processed to make new products. This
represents significant loss of resources as the energy, transport and environmental
damage caused by these processes is considerable.
Another problem is that these types of appliances may contain gases such as
hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) used as the refrigeration coolant. HFCs are greenhouse
gases which when emitted into the atmosphere contribute to climate change.
Fluorescent lighting from the appliance may contain potentially harmful substances
such as toxic heavy metals, in particular mercury, cadmium and lead. If they enter the
body, these substances can cause damage to liver, kidneys and the brain. Mercury is
also a neurotoxin and has the ability to build up in the food chain.
xTo help in the recovery and recycling process of this appliance, do not dismantle
or break parts off the appliance prior to collection. By removing parts off the
appliance, you can reduce its recyclability rate.
2. The symbol below, which is also on the Product Label inside the appliance,
indicates the need for separate collection of electrical and electronic equipment
based on the European Community (EC) WEEE Directive.
Crossed-Out Wheeled Bin
Note: As an end-user, it is your responsibility and contribution to recycling to ensure
that the appliance is not thrown away with unsorted municipal waste, but is collected
separately from a recycling company. Please contact the relevant recycling company
or the local Frigoglass Sales Office for further information regarding collection
arrangements
3. Finally, observe any recycling laws applicable to your community or country.
