INSTALLATION
HOW TO OPERATE THE REFRIGERATOR/
FREEZER COMPARTMENT
Make sure that your refrigerator is not near a heat source.
Install it in a dry and well-ventilated place.
To ensure proper ventilation leave a 1 cm space on both sides and above the refrigerator.
Clean the inside of the refrigerator before using it.
Leave the refrigerator (without moving it) for at least one hour before connecting it to the power
outlet.
The appliance must be connected to a water supply that delivers drinking or chemically purified water.
Install and level the refrigerator on a floor strong enough to take its weight and in an area suitable for
its size and use.
Do not use the refrigerator in places where the temperature can fall below 13°C.
Be careful not to damage the floors when moving the appliance (e.g. parquet).
Connect the appliance to the water supply and power supply (see Installation manual).
When the appliance is connected to the power supply, two hyphens will appear on the freezer display
until the optimum temperature is reached. The refrigerator display will show a temperature of +5°C
(factory set).
When the appliance is warm, the red alarm LED will blink and the acoustic alarm sounds, indicating that
the appliance has not yet reached the optimum temperature for preserving food.
Press the Reset button to deactivate the acoustic alarm.
The red LED will stop blinking when the freezer compartment reaches a sufficiently low
temperature for preserving food. At this point food can be placed in the freezer compartment.
After being switched on, the refrigerator needs 2/3 hours to reach the correct temperature to store a
typical volume of food in the refrigerator compartment.
IMPORTANT
: If food is introduced before the refrigerator has cooled completely, it may deteriorate.
Turning the refrigerator and freezer controls to a cooler than recommended setting will not cool the
compartments any faster.
Do not place food near the air vents in the refrigerator compartment.
A built-in exterior moisture control continuously guards against moisture build-up on the front edges;
Do not be alarmed if these edges sometimes feel warm to the touch.
The inside light switches on when both doors are opened.
