UNPACK THE REFRIGERATOR
IMPORTANT: A qualified engineer must unpack
and connect the refrigerator in accordance with
these installation instructions.
Excessive
Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in back or other
injury.
Remove the Packaging
• Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces
before turning on the refrigerator. Rub a small
amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive
with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and
dry.
• Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol,
flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove
tape or glue. Theseproducts can damage the
surface of your refrigerator. For more
information, see “Refrigerator Safety.”
When moving your refrigerator:
Your refrigerator is heavy. When moving the refri-
gerator for cleaning or service, be sure to cover
the floor with cardboard or hardboard to avoid
floor damage. Always pull the refrigerator straight
out when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the
refrigerator when trying to move it, as floor dama-
ge could occur.
• After unpacking the refrigerator, make sure it is
not damaged and that the door closes properly.
Any damage must be reported to the dealer
within 24 hours of delivery of the refrigerator.
• Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials. The
packing material which bears this symbol is
100% recyclable. For disposal, comply with the
local regulations. Keep the packing
materials (plastic bags, polystyrene
parts, etc.) out of the reach of children,
as they are a potential source of danger.
BEFORE USE
IMPORTANT:
• To ensure best use of your refrigerator, read the
operating instructions, which contain a
description of the refrigerator and other useful
advice.
• Wait at least 2 hours before turning on the
refrigerator to ensure that the refrigerant circuit
is fully efficient.
Electrical Requirements
IMPORTANT: Installation and the electrical
connection must be carried out by a qualified
technician according to the manufacturers’
instructions and in compliance with the local safety
regulations.
• The refrigerator is designed to operate on a
separate 220-240 volt, 10 amp, 50/60 Hz cycle
time.
• Make sure the voltage specified on the rating
plate corresponds to that of your home.
• It must be possible to disconnect the appliance
from the power supply by unplugging it or by
means of a mains two-pole switch installed
upstream of the socket.
• Power cable modification or replacement must
be carried out only by qualified personnel or by
After-sales Service.
Clean Before Using
After you remove all of the packaging materials,
clean the inside of your refrigerator before using it.
See the cleaning instructions in “Refrigerator
Care.”
Important information to know about glass
shelves and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm
water when they are cold. Shelves and covers may
break if exposed to sudden temperature changes
or impact, such as bumping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many
small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass
shelves and covers are heavy. Use both hands
when removing them to avoid dropping.
Food Storage
• Use the refrigerator compartment only for
storing fresh food and the freezer compartment
only for storing frozen food, freezing fresh food
and making ice cubes.
• Do not store glass containers with liquids in the
freezer compartment because they may break.
• Avoid storing unwrapped food in direct contact
with internal surfaces of the refrigerator or
freezer compartments.
