Q: Should I keep or remove the plastic cover above the compressor of the PKM GK212 SI refrigerator?

The plastic cover should remain in place. This protection is factory-installed by PKM and serves several essential functions: Protection of the compressor against dust and dirt Thermal insulation to reduce heat loss Safety: prevents accidental contact with hot or moving parts of the motor You should not remove anything. However, please ensure that the appliance has a minimum of 50 mm of free space around the compressor (especially at the back and on the sides) for proper ventilation. Do not embed your refrigerator too close to a wall. Before the first connection, observe a resting period of 4 to 6 hours if the transport was done in a lying position, to allow the compressor to stabilize its operation.
