• Remove the wrapping protecting the appliance during
transport. Door corners are fi tted with protective spacers.
Remove the spacers and replace them with the attached pegs.
• Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, leave it
in upright position for about 2 hours. This will reduce possibility
of malfunctions in the cooling system resulting from prior
transport and handling.
• The appliance must be connected to the mains supply
in accordance with the standing regulations and local
requirements.
• The appliance must not be used in open air or exposed to
weather precipitation.
• Always disconnect the appliance from power supply (pull
the power cord from wall socket) before cleaning and before
replacing the light bulb.
• If the power supply cord is damaged, in order to avoid hazard
it must be replaced by the service or by qualifi ed personnel.

• Wrappings contain environmentally friendly materials which
can be recycled, recovered or disposed without threat to the
environment.

• Self closing door (certain models only) hinge pulls the door to
the cabinet just before closing, thereby preventing the door
to remain ajar. Equally it limits the door opening angle and
prevents damage to adjacent elements.
