To avoid higher energy consumption and a shorter compressor life, your refrigerated equipment should never be installed:

  • Near sources of heat such as radiators, direct or indirect sunlight or other equipment which produce heat.
  • In line with draughts coming from doors, windows or air-conditioning systems.
  1. Remove the appliance from the packaging. Make sure that all protective plastic film and coatings are thoroughly removed from all surfaces.
  2. To optimize performance and longevity, ensure a minimum clearance of 2.5cm is maintained between the unit and walls and other objects, with a minimum 20cm clearance on the top.

Cleaning, Care & Maintenance

  • Switch off and disconnect from the power supply before cleaning.
  • Clean the interior of the appliance as often as possible.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaning agents. These can leave harmful residues.
  • Always wipe dry after cleaning.

Condensation and ice will form with frequent and prolonged opening of the doors.
Operating outside of the recommend temperature range and placing next to a heat source will also increase the amount of ice and internal/external condensation. If external condensation occurs wipe the surface down with a cloth.
Excessive ice will result in longer running times that will increase energy consumption and increase the deterioration of components.

This unit is fitted with a condensate heater, however if ambient humidity rises above 75%, it may be necessary to direct the drain line (located at the rear) to a suitable drain outlet or tray.

Cleaning the Condenser
Periodically cleaning the condenser can extend the life of the appliance.
The condenser is located behind the front bottom panel.
Note: Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to clean the fins of the condenser, taking care not to damage the fins.
