Remove all securing tapes. Wash the inside of the appliance with lukewarm
water with a little bicarbonate of soda added (5ml to 0,5 litre of water). Do not use soap or detergent as the smell maylinger. Dry the appliance thoroughly. Do not use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products, wax, polishes or products containing alcohol.
Check that the drain hose at the rear of the cabinet
discharges into the drip tray. Before inserting the power plug into the outlet and switching on the cabinet for the first time, leave it standing upright for about 30 minutes, or for 4 hours if it was transported horizontally. Otherwise the compressor may sustain damage. This time will allow the oil sufficient time to return to the compressor.
To start the fridge and thermostat control
Turn the thermostat control to the desired position. 1: The lowest position of the thermostat control results in the highest temperature inside the cabinet. 6: The highest position of the thermostat control results in the lowest temperature inside the cabinet. 0: Off. Allow the cabinet to run for a period of 24 hours whenever the temperature setting is changed. This will allow the temperature to stabilise inside the cabinet. A suitable temperature inside the fridge is approx. 5°C. If the thermostat control is set too cold, food with a high water content may start to freeze if it has been placed in the coldest places in the fridge. The picture shows the coldest and warmest places inside the fridge. (+ warm, - cold) Meat, fish and milk should be put in the coldest part of the cabinet. The temperature will be affecteed by:  How often the door is opened  How much food is stored  Position of the appliance (See chapter Installation)
