Moving The Appliance
Changing The Light
Connecting The Appliance
To avoid vibration, the unit must be leveled.
If required, adjust the leveling screws to compensate for the uneven floor
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.
1. Remove all food from inside the appliance.
2. Pull the power plug out, insert, and fix it into the power plug hook at the rear or
on top of the appliance.
3. Tape parts such as shelves and door handle to prevent them from falling off while
moving the appliance.
4. Move the appliance with more than two people carefully. When transporting the
appliance over a long distance, keep the appliance upright.
5. After installing the appliance, connect the power plug to a socket out to switch on
the appliance.
ATTENTION
Precautions before operation:
Before making changes, the refrigerator must be disconnected from power.
precautions should be taken to prevent any personal injury.
• Any replacement or maintenance of the LED lamps is intended to be made by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similar qualified person.
After installing the appliance, connect the power plug into a socket outlet.
ATTENTION

the appliance. If you add food before the appliance has cooled completely, your food may spoil.
Leveling Feet

17
• 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 sufficient 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 efficient 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.
• To obtain a larger storage space (e.g., for large refrigerated/frozen goods), the middle
drawers can be removed. The top and bottom drawers and shelves should be removed last
if necessary.
• An evenly filled 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 efficiency.
• Allow frozen food to defrost in the refrigerator. The coldness of the frozen food reduces the
energy consumption in the refrigerator compartment and thus increases energy efficiency.
• Open the door only as briefly as necessary to minimize cold loss. Opening the door briefly 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.
