Unpacking

1. Carefully remove all packaging materials, including tape and protective films.

Placement

• Place the unit on a firm, level floor capable of supporting its weight when fully loaded.
• Ensure adequate clearance around the unit for proper ventilation (minimum 10 cm on sides and rear, 30 cm above).

Initial Cleaning

Before first use, clean the interior and exterior surfaces with a mild detergent and warm water. Wipe dry thoroughly.

Power Connection

After placement and leveling, wait at least 2-4 hours before plugging the unit into a grounded electrical outlet. This allows the refrigerant to settle. Connect to a dedicated circuit if possible.
