3. Setup and Installation

3.1 Unpacking

Carefully remove all packaging materials. Inspect the appliance for any damage incurred during transit. Report any damage to your retailer immediately.

3.2 Placement

Place the refrigerator on a firm, level surface away from direct sunlight, heat sources (e.g., ovens, radiators), and extreme cold. Ensure adequate ventilation around the appliance. Maintain a minimum clearance of 5 cm from walls and other furniture.

3.3 Door Reversibility

The doors of the Candy CCE4T620EX are reversible, allowing you to change the opening direction to suit your kitchen layout. Refer to the detailed instructions provided in the separate installation guide for the door reversal procedure. This process typically involves moving hinges and covers from one side to the other.

Before contacting customer service, review the following common issues and their potential solutions:
