Check the vertical alignment of the doors and correct their position if necessary (Fig. 10 Level the front faces of the door panels by slackening the guide block screws and inserting the shims supplied, as necessary (Fig. The top of the appliance must be kept clear to allow better air circulation. If a wall unit is fitted above the appliance, there must be a gap of 50 mm between this unit and the wall and it must be at least 50 mm below the ceiling (Fig. 15 Once adjustment has been completed, open the doors and drill the door panels with a 2. 5 mm bit through the hole in the hinge; fix with the screws (Fig. 16 50 50 25 23 Fitting the plinth Alignment height of 820 mm If using a 140 to 170 mm plinth, make a cut-out as shown (Fig. If using a plinth higher than 100 mm but less than 140 mm, cut the height compensation strip supplied with the appliance to the required depth and fit it between the plinth and the ventilation grille, pressing it into position below this grille (Fig. If using a 100 mm plinth, fit the complete height compensation strip (Fig. 19 820 870 170 220 30 100 0 100 150 90 140 30 190 100 Alignment height of 870 mm If using a 190 to 220 mm plinth, make a cut-out as shown (Fig. 22 Do not place hot food or drinks in the refrigerator; wait until they have cooled to room temperature. Always cover foods, especially those which are strong-smelling or aromatic.

If the bottom of the compartment becomes covered with too much frost, turn the thermostat knob slowly towards a warmer setting until the compressor starts to cut out periodically. It is important to periodically clean the defrost water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator compartment channel to prevent the water overflowing and dripping onto the food inside. [. . . ]
