Hoover HV-RCF287 User manual

Installation
• Before you start installing the freezer, wipe the interior surfaces
and accessories with a damp cloth to remove any dust from transit
and storage. Dry thoroughly.
• Tilt the freezer carefully – not more than 45 degrees – and move it
to its designated place. Use the roll wheels under the back corners
to help you position it in place and the levelling feet at the front for
adjustment, if necessary.
• Avoid areas where the freezer would be exposed to direct sunlight,
heat, extreme cold ambient temperatures or excessive moisture
and high humidity. Installing it in the coolest area of the room will
save energy consumption and running costs. Allow at least 10 cm
clear space at the back and sides of the unit, and 70 cm above
(Fig. 1), so air can circulate freely around the freezer.
Welcome to your new Hoover freezer! We hope that this product brings you many years of enjoyment.
Comprehensive installation instructions, diagrams and safety advice are provided in the supplied
instruction manual.
CAUTION! The freezer is heavy - transport it with care! To avoid back or other injury, we recommend you
ask someone for help or use a mechanical aid when moving it.
