Instructions for the Installer

3. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION

3.1 Choosing the site

Always place the refrigerator in a dry place with satisfactory ventilation. Never expose it to direct sunlight

or install it outdoors. Depending on its climate class (stated on the nameplate inside the refrigerator

compartment), the appliance can be used in different temperature conditions:

Class Ambient temperature

SN (Subnormal) from +10°C to +32°C

N (Normal) from + 16° C to + 32° C

ST (Subtropical) from + 18° C to + 38° C

T (Tropical) from + 18° C to + 43° C

Never place the refrigerator close to heat sources. If this is unavoidable, a suitable insulating panel must

be used to allow the appliance to function properly. Otherwise, place the appliance at least 3 cm from

electric or gas cookers and at least 30 cm from combustion or radiation heating systems.

To allow proper cooling of the condenser, the refrigerator must not be placed

too close to the wall. To prevent this, the appliance comes complete with two

plastic spacers which must be fitted to the top of the condenser. If the

refrigerator is installed underneath a wall cupboard, the distance between the

two must be at least 5 cm.

Take care not to scratch or damage the floor when installing the appliance on

parquet or linoleum. If necessary, when positioning slide the refrigerator over

pieces of wood or a mat to the point decided for connection to the electrical mains.

3.2 Positioning and levelling the appliance

Place the fridge on a stable and level floor. In case the floor is not perfectly level, use the two adjustable

feet on the front part of the fridge (pict. 1). To ensure major stability, easier movement and a correct

positioning of the product, two additional wheels (pict. 2) are present at the rear. In any case we

recommend to move the fridge very carefully in order to avoid floor damage (especially in case of

wooden floor).

1) 2)

3.3 Electrical connection

Before switching the refrigerator on for the first time, leave it vertical for at least two hours. Then connect

the appliance's power supply lead to a mains socket with earth contact, installed in accordance with

electrical safety regulations. The rated voltage and frequency are stated on the nameplate inside the

refrigerator compartment. The appliance must be connected to the electrical mains and earthed in

compliance with the relevant regulations and requirements. The appliance is able to withstand short

fluctuations in voltage of no more than 15% less or 10% more than the rated voltage stated on the

nameplate. If the power supply lead has to be replaced, this operation must only be carried out by an

authorised Smeg technical service engineer.

The socket must be accessible after the appliance has been placed.

With most refrigerators a higher setting means the machine will cool harder. With a lower setting, the machine will cool less hard and the temperature in the refrigerator will be higher.

My refrigerator makes a bubbling sound, is that normal? Verified

Modern refrigerators make use of an environmentally friendly cooling agent. During the cooling process this substance turns into a gas, which can cause a bubbling and/or hissing sound. This is perfectly normal.

Is it normal that water or ice drops are forming on the back wall of my refrigerator? Verified

Yes, this a completely normal phenomenom. The moisture that enters the refrigerator with warm air or products will settle on the coldest part, being the back wall. Because the back wall can reach temperatures below freezing, the drops will freeze from time to time. When the refrigerator is idle the drops will thaw and flow to the drain of the refrigerator.

De door of my refrigerator will not close properly, why is that? Verified

The two most common causes are that the refrigerator is not level and that the door seal is damaged or has food remains on it. Make sure the refrigerator is level and check the door seal. Replace the seal if neccesary.

This was helpful (609) Read more

I bought a new refrigerator, can I turn it on immediately? Verified

No, the refrigerator needs to stand in an upright position for at least 4 hours before it can be turned on. This is because the coolant liquid needs to settle.

This was helpful (499) Read more

How much space should I leave betwee my refrigerator and the wall? Verified

To ensure a good ventilation it's best to leave at least 5cm of free space on both sides and the back of the refrigerator.

This was helpful (427) Read more

How long does it take for my refrigerator to reach the set temperature after I turn it on? Verified

This depends on the size, age and model of the refrigerator. It may take several hours to 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the set temperature. The process can be accelerated by placing non-perishable goods in the refrigerator. The temperature in the refrigerator cannot be measured properly by feeling the air inside. The best way to tell if the refrigerator has reached the set temperature is to place a glass of water in the refrigerator with a thermometer in it.

This was helpful (334) Read more

There is condensation in my refrigerator, why is that? Verified

There can be several causes. The door gasket can be defective, allowing outside air into the refrigerator. It's also possible that the refrigerator is not level, preventing the door from closing correctly. Another cause is a large difference between the temperature inside the refrigerator and outside while the door is being opened frequently.

This was helpful (254) Read more

Can I put warm food or drinks in my refrigerator? Verified

Preferably not. The temperature in your refrigerator will rise, which negatively impacts the other items that are stored inside.

What is R-410A? Verified

R-410A is a cooling agent that is used in appliances that cool up to 0°C, like refrigerators and air conditioners. It is the replacement of older cooling agents and does not damage the ozon layer.

This was helpful (201) Read more

There is mold on the rubber seals of my refrigerator, what should I do? Verified

The rubber seals are not actually inside the refrigerator and are therefore warmer. This allows bacteria to grow and mold to form. Clean the rubbers regularly to prevent this.
