2. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

ATTENTION

If the appliance is transported in a horizontal position, the oil from the compressor may leak into the

cooling circuit. For this reason, allow the appliance to rest in a vertical position for 12 hours before
turning it on, so that the oil flows back into the compressor.

Remove the external packaging, remove the protective plastic film from the surface of the appliance (if

used) and clean the external parts of the appliance with a cleaner designed for this purpose. Do not use
steel wool or any coarse agents, which could irreparably damage the surface of the appliance.

IMPORTANT

This unit can be installed as either built-in or free-standing unit. For free-standing installation, allow at

least 4” of clearance at the back, sides and top of the unit to permit the proper air circulation to cool the
compressor and condenser. For built-in installation, certain clearances are necessary for optimal
operation. In this case, allow 3/16” on both sides, 2” at the rear and 1/16” at the top to ensure proper
ventilation. Take care that the air vent at the front of the appliance is never covered or blocked in any
way.

BEFORE INSTALLATING OF YOUR APPLIANCE

 The placement of the appliance must meet the requirements in the section operating conditions

and must include a stable floor with a load-bearing capacity corresponding to the weight of the
appliance.

 Level the appliance using the adjustable feet. Ensure there is a gap between the bottom edge of

the appliance and the ground, so that there is sufficient circulation of air. This will ensure the
optimal performance of the cooling system.

 Check whether any coolant circulation pipes have been damaged during the installation.

 Use the appliance only for the purposes for which it has been designed.

 The appliance must be located on a rigid and even surface. In this way you will ensure free

circulation of the coolant and effective operation of your appliance.

 If possible, place the appliance in a cool, well ventilated and dry room.

 Do not locate the appliance in direct sunlight or in a room with a high ambient temperature, or in

the vicinity of any sources of direct heat, such as a radiator or oven. This would cause the
compressor to work harder, resulting in a substantially higher power consumption level.
