Installing the appliance
Install the appliance in a dry, well
ventilated room. The installation location
should neither be exposed to direct
sunlight nor near a heat source, e.g.
acooker, radiator, etc. If installation next
to a heat source is unavoidable, use
asuitable insulating plate or observe the
following minimumdistances to a heat
source:
3 cmto an electric cooker.
30 cmto an oil or solidfuel cooker.
The floor of the installation location must
not give way; if required, reinforce floor.
Align appliance with a spirit level.
If the floor is uneven, compensate with
supports.
The appliance can be transported on its
smooth−running rollers. Fig.4
!Warning!
If required, secure the appliance to
prevent it fromrolling away
If the appliance is placed next to the wall,
there must be a minimumdistance of
70mm between the wall and rear panel
orside panels.
Removing
thetransportation
protection devices
Remove the four transportation protection
devices, Fig.3, which are attached
between the chest freezer lid and
appliance.
Insert two of these transportation
protection devices into the designated
holders at the back of the appliance.
Thismaintains the minimumdistance
between the appliance and the wall, the
chest freezer lid can be opened correctly
and ventilation is guaranteed.
Connecting
theappliance
After installing the appliance, wait at least
½hour before switching on the
appliance. During transportation the oil in
the compressor may have flowed into
therefrigeration system.
Before switching on the appliance for the
first time, clean the interior
(seeCleaning).
The socket should be freely accessible.
Connect the appliance to 220−240V/
50Hz alternating current via a correctly
installed earthed socket. The socket must
be fused with a 10 to 16 A fuse.
For appliances operated in nonEuropean
countries, the identification plate should
be checked whether the electric supply
and the current model stated match the
vales of the mains supply. These specifi
cations can be found on the rating plate.
Fig.q
The mains connection cable may be
replaced by an electrician only.
!Warning!
Never connect the appliance to electronic
energy saver plugs or to power inverters
which convert the direct current to 230V
alternating current (e.g. solar equipment,
power supplies on ships).
