ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Before you insert the plug into the wall
socket make sure that the voltage and the frequency shown on the rating plate inside the appliance corresponds to yourelectricity supply.
Rating label is on the left hand side of
fridge inner liner. We recommend that this appliance be
connected to the mains supply via a suitable switched and fused socket. The
appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.
Should the mains lead of the appliance
become damaged or should it need replacing at any time, it must be
replaced by a special purpose made mains lead which can only be obtained
from a BLOMBERG Authorised Service Agent.
WARNING! THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
If the fitted moulded plug is not suitable for your socket, then the plug should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted. Destroy the old plug which is cut off as a plug with bared cord could cause a
shock hazard if inserted into a socket
elsewhere in the house. The moulded plug on this appliance
incorporates a 13 A fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced an ASTABEAB approved BS 1362 fuse of the same
rating must be used. Do not forget to refit the fuse cover. In the event of losing the fuse cover the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been fitted. Colour of the replacement fuse cover must be the same colour as that visible on the pin face of the plug. Fuse covers are available from any good electrical store.

IMPORTANT! FITTING A DIFFERENT PLUG
As the colours of the wires in the
mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in
your plug proceed as follows: (See diagram).
1. Connect the green-yellow or green
(Earth) wire to the terminal in the plug
marked ‘E’ or with the symbol or coloured green and yellow or green.
2. Connect the blue (Neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or
coloured black.
3. Connect the brown (Live) wire to
the terminal in the plug marked ‘L’ or coloured red.
With alternative plugs a 13 A fuse must
be fitted either in the plug or adaptor or in the main fuse box. If in doubt contact a qualified electrician.

Rotating Middle Section
Rotating middle section is intended
to prevent the cold air inside your refrigerator from escaping outside.
Rotating middle section aids in
sealing since the gaskets on the door
presses on the surface of the Rotating
middle section when the doors of the fridge compartment are closed.
Another reason that your refrigerator
is equipped with a rotating middle section is that it increases the net volume of the fridge compartment.
Standard middle sections occupy
some non-usable volume in the refrigerator.
The rotating middle section must be closed while the left door of the fridge compartment is open. It must not be opened manually, it is rotating by meas of a plastic part mounted on the cabinet.
Multi Zone Storage Compartment
The Multi Zone Storage Compartment
of your refrigerator may be used in any desired mode by adjusting it to
fridge (2/4/6/8 °C) or freezer (-18/­20/-22/-24) temperatures. You can
keep the compartment in the desired
temperature with the Multi Zone Storage Compartment Temperature Setting Button. The temperature of the Multi Zone Storage Compartment
may be set to 0 and 10 degrees in
addition to the fridge compartment temperatures and to -6 degrees in
addition to the freezer compartment
temperatures. 0 degree is used to store the deli products longer, and -6 degrees is used to keep the meats up to 2 weeks in an easily cuttable condition.
C The feature of switching to a Fridge
or Freezer compartment is provided by
a cooling element located in the closed
section (Compressor Compartment)
behind the refrigerator. During operation of this element, sounds similar to the sound of seconds heard from an analog clock may be heard. This is normal and is not fault cause.
Blue light
Foodstuff stored in the crispers that are enlightened with a blue light continue their photosynthesis by means of the wavelength effect of blue light and thus, preserve their freshness and increase their vitamin content.
