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 your electricity 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

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).

Energy saving tips

3. Do not leave the door (s) of your appliance open longer than necessary and ensure they are closed properly after each opening.

4. Defrost frozen food in the fridge compartment, so that frozen food acts as an ice pack to assist cooling in the fridge.

5. Energy consumption of this appliance is measured while freezer compartment is loaded without use of top shelf lid and the drawers except the bottom drawer. It is advised that freezer compartment is loaded without use of drawers except the bottom drawer in order to achieve maximum loading capacity.
