condenser give off heat and require good ventilation to
operate correctly and save energy.
3. Leave a space of at least 10 cm etween the top part
of the appliance and any furniture a ove it, and at least 5
cm etween the sides and any furniture/side walls.
4. Ensure the appliance is far away from any sources of

refrigerator y tightening or loosening the rear feet.
Electrical connections
After transportation of the appliance, carefully place it
vertically and wait at least 3 hours efore connecting it to
the electricity mains. Before inserting the plug into the
electrical socket ensure the following:
The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with
the law.
The socket can withstand the maximum power of the
appliance, which is indicated on the data plate located
on the ottom left side of the fridge (e.g. 150 W).
The voltage must e in the range etween the values
indicated on the data plate located on the ottom left
side (e.g. 220-240V).
The socket is compati le with the plug of the appliance.

the connection to the water system: in this way it will e
possi le to manually interrupt the water supply during long
periods in which Aqua Care is not used.
! The water pressure inside the water system must e
etween 0.8 ar and 8 ar.
