Wait about 24 hours before switching it on [#6509753][#6509799] One reply says the fridge should stand for about an hour after transport so the oil settles, and after you turn it on it should run empty for about an hour before you put food in [#6509757] Another reply mentions that some delivery people say only up to 3 hours, but the most repeated advice in the thread is still 24 hours [#6509819][#6509753]

The refrigerator should be in an hour so that the oil settles after transport , and after turning it on, it should also work empty for an hour, and then we can put food in
There is no point in keeping the fridge for so long, you can go ahead and turn it on only for an hour, it must work empty, I'll tell you that everyone who delivers the fridge always says something else, max is up to 3 hours but not 24 or 8 hours
I just turned it on and waited. The back of the refrigerator is already cold. However, nothing is happening in the freezer yet. This is a Liebherr CN 30330 refrigerator.
