Points to be considered
when re-transporting your
freezer
1. Your freezer must be emptied and
cleaned prior to any transportation.
2. Shelves, accessories, etc. have to be
fastened securely by adhesive tape
against any jolt before packaging the
freezer.
3. The packaging must be tied with
thick tapes and strong ropes and the
rules of transportation printed on the
package must be followed.
Please do not forget…
That recycled material is an
indispensable source for the nature
and for our national resources.
If you would like to contribute to the
recycling of the packaging materials,
you can get further information from
the environmental bodies or local
authorities.
Before operating your
freezer
#FGPSFTUBSUJOHUPVTFZPVSGSFF[FScheck the following:
1. The interior of the freezer has to be
dry and it is possible for the air to
circulate freely at the back of the
appliance.
2. You can install the 2 spacers as
illustrated in the figure. The spacers
will provide the required distance
between your freezer and the wall in
order to allow the air to circulate. (The
illustrated figure is only an example
and does not match exactly with your
product.)
3. Clean the interior of the freezer as
recommended in the "Maintenance
and cleaning" section.
4. Plug the freezer into the outlet. When
the door is open the interior light in the
freezer compartment will be switched
on.
5. You will hear a noise as the
compressor starts up. The liquid and
gases sealed within the refrigeration
system may also give rise to noise,
even if the compressor is not running
and this is quite normal.
6. The front edges of the freezer may
feel warm. This is normal. These areas
are designed to be warm to avoid
condensation.

Placing and Installation
1. There must be appropriate air

Adjusting the legs
If your freezer is unbalanced you can
balance the freezer by turning the front
legs as shown in the illustration below.
The corner where the leg is placed is
lowered when you turn the leg in the
direction of the black arrow and raised
when you turn the leg in the opposite
direction. Getting help from someone
to slightly lift the freezer will facilitate this
process.
