Before connecting to the electricity supply
leave the appliance to stand for 2 hours to
allow the cooling system to settle.
Please read through this section before
starting any work.
Choosing a location:
The power socket should be in a readily
accessible position, adjacent to the Fridge
Freezer.
Place the Fridge Freezer in a dry and regu-
larly ventilated room.
Allowed ambient temperature depends on
the model (class) of the appliance and is
stated on the rating plate.
In case the Fridge Freezer is exposed to
temperatures lower than +16°C, the opera-
tion of the refrigerator is normal, yet the
temperature in the freezer compartment is
raised, which shortens the storage time of
frozen foods.
Never place the Fridge Freezer near heat
emitting devices (eg. cooker, radiator, water
heater or similar devices) and do not
expose it to direct sunlight. In such a posi-
tion your Fridge Freezer will have to work
harder and will cost more to run and could
be damaged by the heat.
Ensure that you provide adequate air
circulation around the Fridge Freezer.
Behind, there should be at least 200cm 2 .
Any units positioned above the Fridge
Freezer should be at least 5cm away.

Place the Fridge Freezer on a solid base.
Some have adjustable feet at the front, use
them to level the Fridge Freezer.
Two spacers supplied with the Fridge
Freezer must be fitted onto the upper edge
of the condenser, preventing the Fridge
Freezer being installed too close to the wall.
You will need to adjust both spacers
depending on the distance of the condenser
from the wall. To adjust, turn spacers
accordingly and fix them to the condenser.
W WA ARRN NIIN NG G::
The appliance contains a small quantity of
the enviromentally-friendly but flammable
refrigerant R600a.
Ensure that the refrigeration tubing is not
damaged during transportation and
installation. Leaking refrigerant may cause
eye injuries or ignite.
If refrigerant is leaking out:
- Avoid naked flames and ignition sources
near the leakage.
- Unplug the appliance and ventilate the
room for several minutes.
