Installation
• Install the appliance away from heat sources. Installation in a hot environment, direct exposure to the
sun or installation near heat sources (heaters, radiators, cookers) will increase power consumption and
should therefore be avoided.
• If this is not possible, the following minimum distances must be respected:
• 30 cm from coal or paraffin stoves;
• 3 cm from electric and/or gas stoves.
• Fit the spacers (if supplied) on the rear of the condenser positioned at the back of the appliance.
• Install the appliance in a dry, well-ventilated place, and ensure it is level, using the front adjustment
feet if necessary.
• Clean the interior.
• Fit the accessories.
Electrical connection
• Electrical connections must be made in accordance with local regulations.
• Voltage and power consumption are indicated on the rating plate inside the appliance.
• Regulations require that the appliance be earthed. The manufacturer declines all liability for
injury to persons or animals and for damage to property resulting from failure to observe the
above procedures and reminders.
• If the plug and socket are not of the same type, have the socket replaced by a qualified electrician.
• Do not use extension leads or adapters.
Disconnecting the appliance
It must be possible to disconnect the appliance by unplugging it or by means of a two-pole switch fitted
upline of the socket.
