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
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.
4. 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.

Energy Saving Tips
1. Ensure your appliance is installed in a
well ventilated area.
2. Ensure the time between buying
chilled/frozen food and placing
them in your appliance is kept at
minimum, particularly in summer. We
recommend you use a cool bag or
a special carrier bag to carry frozen
food.
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, so
that frozen food acts as an ice pack
to assist cooling in fridge.
