adhesive tapes.
•When positioning the appliance in chosen location, it will move more easily into

casters. Moving or positioning the appliance do not tilt it by more than 40° from the
vertical position.
When placing, moving, lifting the appliance, do not hold the door
handles, do not pull the condenser at the rear part of the refrigerator
and do not touch the compressor unit.

out –IT IS FOR TRANSPORTATION PURPOSES ONLY.
•Take two supports 1from the bag and insert
them into the guides 2at the top back part of the
appliance (see picture).
If the appliance is brought in from the cold (temperature is not higher than +12
°C), you should wait for two hours before connecting it to the mains.
The appliance should not be connected to the mains until all packing and
transport materials aren’t removed. Suitably dispose the packaging material.
Connection to the mains
•This appliance should be connected to AC 220-240V 50Hz supply socket. The socket
must be fitted properly, and must be supplied with an earthling conduit and a 10A
fuse. It is a legal requirement that the appliance is properly earthed. The
manufacturer will not be held liable for any damage or injury which may result from
the failure to fulfil this requirement.
•Do not use adapters, multiple sockets and two-wire extension leads. If it is necessary
to use the extension lead, it must be equipped with a protection ring and a single
socket and must have a VDE/GS safety certificate.
•If an extension lead is used (with a protection ring and safety certificate), its socket
must be located at a safe distance, away from the sinks, and must not be in a place
where it could be flooded by water or waste water.
•When positioning the appliance, be careful that the electrical cord isn’t squeezed in
order to avoid its damage. Do not store heavy objects such as cooling devices,
furniture or other domestic devices next the appliance in such a way that they could
squeeze and damage the electrical cord. This can cause a short circuit and a fire.
•Make sure that the plug of the electrical cord is not squeezed by the back wall of the
