IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. The space in the room where the appliance is installed must not be smaller than 10 cubic metres. 2. See pages 14 to 15 for detailed instructions regarding reversing door opening direction. 3. This appliance has been designed to operate in ambient temperatures up to 38 degrees C (100 degrees F) and is equipped with Freezer Guard technology which ensures that even if the ambient temperature falls to -15°C, frozen food in the freezer does not thaw thanks to this. So, you may then install your appliance in a garage or an unheated room without having to worry about frozen food in the freezer being spoilt. However at low ambient temperatures mentioned above, fridge contents are likely to freeze, so check and consume food in the fridge accordingly. When the ambient temperature returns to normal, you may change the temperature setting to suit your needs. If the ambient temperature is below 0°C, the food in the fridge compartment will freeze. So, we recommend you don't use the fridge compartment in such low ambient conditions. You can continue using the freezer compartment as usual. 4. Do not place the appliance near cookers, radiators or in direct sunlight as this will cause your appliance to work harder. If installed next to a source of heat or freezer, maintain the following minimum side clearances: From Cookers 50 mm (2") From Radiators 300 mm (12") From Freezers 25 mm (1") 5. Refer to cleaning and care section to prepare your appliance for use. 6. A special receptacle is supplied to store the mains plug during transit. The receptacle is fixed at the back of the cabinet, on the side of the compressor (see diagram). Gently remove the plug from the receptacle. Never pull the mains cord, you may damage the appliance. In the case of transportation, ensure you locate the plug in the receptacle provided to avoid transit damage.
