B.1.3 POSITIONING B.1.3.1 General instructions Install the equipment, taking all the safety precautions re­quired for this type of operation, also respecting the relative fire-prevention instructions.
Place the appliance in a well-ventilated place, away from heat sources such as radiators or air-conditioning systems, in order to allow correct cooling of the refrigerating unit components. Insuf­ficient ventilation will in fact damage the appliance and prevent it from working properly. Also, if the temperature is very high, the compressor will activate more frequently and for longer periods of time, resulting in higher consumption of electrical energy. Keep the ventilation openings free of any sort of obstruction. Never cover the condenser, even temporarily, as this may com­promise its proper operation and therefore that of the appliance. If the appliance is installed in rooms where there are corrosive substances (chlorine, etc.), it is advisable to go over all the stainless steel surfaces with a cloth soaked in paraffin oil to create a protective film. The equipment’s performance is guaranteed at an ambient temperature of +38°C. In any case, the max. ambient tempera­ture at which the equipment can operate is +38°C. Adjust height and levelling by means of the levelling feet,
while at the same time checking the doors for proper closure. Align the door with the side, adjusting the hinge on the bottom of the appliance: remove screw "a" from its seat
