INSTALLATION

Instructions for the installation location:

1. Good ventilation is required around the appliance, in order to dissipate the heat properly and to guarantee efficient cooling operation at low power consumption. Sufficient clearance is necessary. – Ensure there is a distance of approx. 12 cm between the appliance and other objects to the back and to the side walls.

   • Place the appliance so that the appliance door can open without being impeded.
   • To set the desired height of the refrigerator, adjust the feet to the base of the appliance.

2. Only install at a location with an ambient temperature.

3. Place the appliance on a steady and safe surface. If the appliance is not horizontally leveled, adjust each foot that needs adjustment accordingly, by turning them clockwise or counter­clockwise.
   Avoid the installation:

4. Near heaters, next to a stove, direct sunlight or any other heat sources

5. At locations with high humidity (e.g. outdoors, bathroom), as metal parts would be susceptible to corrosion under such circumstances

6. Near volatile or flammable materials (e.g. gas, fuel, alcohol, paint, etc.), in rooms which may have poor air circulation (e.g. garages)
   WARNING: Before connecting the appliance to the mains, let it sit down in place for at least 3 hours. This way you will avoid any malfunction of the coolant system.

BEFORE FIRST USE

CAUTION
After transportation, the appliance should be left standing upright for 2 hours before connecting to the power supply. Nonobservance could lead to malfunction of the cooling system and cause an appliance breakdown.
Clean the appliance interior including all accessory parts. Please read the instructions that we provide in the chapter “CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE”.

STARTING THE APPLIANCE

1. Connect the appliance to the power supply.
2. Operate the temperature control. See also the section “SETTINGS”.

SETTINGS
The power levels ( 1-6) regulate the different values of the internal temperature.

• Setting MIN – Lowest setting (warmest inside temperature)
• Setting NORMAL – Medium setting
• Setting MAX – Highest setting (coldest inside temperature)

Note that the temperature will change depending on the ambient temperature, frequency of door opening and the appliance loading.
During initial operation, turn the temperature control to the highest setting (MAX) for 24 to 48 hours, until the device reaches the desired operating temperature. Afterwards it is recommended to adjust the appliance to the desired working temperature. Correcting the temperature at a later point would then be easier.

NOTE:
When appliance is plugged in, a delay of 3-5 minutes may occur before starting to work, as it may need time for its initial startup.

SWITCHING OFF
To switch off the appliance, disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
If the appliance is out of use for long periods:

1. Remove all contents from the appliance.
2. Clean the appliance thoroughly (section “CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE”).
3. Let the appliance door open to prevent unpleasant odours.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING:

1. Always disconnect the appliance from the power supply before cleaning and user maintenance.
2. Do not use steam cleaners for cleaning the appliance. Moisture could enter electrical components.
3. Risk of electric shock! Hot steam could damage the plastic parts.
4. The appliance must be dry before restarting operation.

CAUTION:

• Do not use a wire brush or other sharp, abrasive items.
• Do not use any acidic or abrasive detergents.
• Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

CLEANING
