Leveling feet
To avoid vibration, the unit must be leveled.
If required, adjust the leveling screws to compensate for the uneven oor.
The front should be slightly higher than the rear to aid in door closing.
Leveling screws can be turned easily by tipping the cabinet slightly.
Turn the leveling screws counterclockwise to raise the unit, clockwise to
lower it.
Connecting the appliance
After installing the appliance, connect the power plug into a socket outlet.
ATTENTION
After connecting the power supply cord (or plug) to the outlet, wait 2 or 3 hours before you
put food into the appliance. If you add food before the appliance has cooled completely, your
food may spoil.
Tips for energy saving
• Do not place the appliance near cookers, radiators or other heat sources. If the
ambient temperature is high, the compressor will run more frequently and for
longer, resulting in increased energy consumption.
•Ensure that there is sufcient ventilation at the base of the appliance, on the
sides of the appliance and at the back of the appliance. Never cover ventilation
openings.
• Please also observe the spacing dimensions in the chapter “Installation”.
• The arrangement of drawers, shelves and racks as shown in the illustration
offers the most efcient use of energy and should therefore be retained as far
as possible. All drawers and shelves should remain in the appliance to keep the
temperature stable and save energy.
•An evenly lled refrigerator/freezer compartment contributes to optimal
energy use. Therefore, avoid empty or half-empty compartments.
• Allow warm food to cool before placing it in the refrigerator/freezer. Food that
has already cooled down increases energy efciency.
•Open the door only as briey as necessary to minimise cold loss. Opening the
door briey and closing it properly reduces energy consumption.
• The door seals of your appliance must be perfectly intact so that the doors
close properly and energy consumption is not increased unnecessarily.
