Installing the appliance
Transportation, unpacking
The appliance and the interior fitting are protected for transport.
Remove all packaging and any adhesive tape.
Any remnants of adhesive can be removed using white spirit.
After transportation the appliance must not be switched on for 2 hours. This is to allow the refrigerant to settle.
Cleaning
Clean the accessories and the inside of the appliance with warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0.5 litres of water). Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Do not use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products, wax polishes or cleaning products containing bleach or alcohol.
Location
The appliance should be positioned in a well ventilated, dry room.
Energy use is affected by the ambient temperature. The appliance should therefore:
not be installed next to radiators, cookers or other sources of heat
only be installed at a location where the ambient temperature corresponds to the climate classification, for which the appliance is designed.
The climate classification can be found on the serial plate.
The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for each climate classification:
Climate Classification | Ambient Temperature |
|
|
SN | +10 to +32 °C |
|
|
N | +16 to +32 °C |
|
|
ST | +18 to +38 °C |
|
|
If installation next to a source of heat is unavoidable, the following minimum clearances must be maintained at the sides of the appliance:
for electric cookers | 3 cm |
for oil and coal fired ranges | 30 cm |
