PART 2: INSTALLING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE

Before using the appliance for the rst time, you should be informed of the following tips.

Ventilation of appliance

In order to improve eciency of the cooling system and save energy, it is necessary to maintain

good ventilation around the appliance for the dissipation of heat. For this reason, sucient clear

space should be available around the refrigerator.

Suggest: It is advisable for there to be at least 75mm of space from the back to the wall, at least

100mm from its top, at last 100mm from its side to the wall and a clear space in front to allow the

doors to open 135°. As shown in following diagrams.
