If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Unplug the appliance before cleaning and before changing the light bulb (when fitted) to avoid electric shock.
Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling the electrical cord as this may damage it. Grip the plug firmly and pull straight out.
Choose a location for your refrigerator that isn’t too cold. The ambient room temperature should be above 10°C.
Stand your refrigerator in a dry place – avoid areas of high moisture or humidity.
Don’t put the refrigerator in frosty or unprotected areas like a garage or on the verandah.
Don’t plug your refrigerator into a timer fitted to the powerpoint.
Do not put the refrigerator in direct sunlight, near stoves, fires or heaters.

Never store fizzy drinks in the freezer compartment.
Never try to repair the refrigerator yourself, only use a qualified or authorised service person for repairs.
Never use electric heaters or dryers to defrost the freezer because you can receive an electric shock.
When transporting and installing the refrigerator, care should be taken to ensure that no parts of the refrigerating circuit are damaged.
Keep ventilation openings in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure clear of obstruction.
When installed correctly, your refrigerator should:
–Have adequate space at the back and sides for air circulation (refer to page 5).
–Be vertically aligned to the surrounding cupboards.
–Have doors that will self-close from a partially open position.
NOTE: You must read these warnings carefully before installing or using the refrigerator. If you need assistance, contact your Customer Care Department. The manufacturer will not accept liability, should these
instructions or any other safety instructions incorporated in this book be ignored.
INSTALLING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE
Clean the refrigerator thoroughly according to instructions and wipe away any dust that has accumulated
during shipping.
Check that the floor is level. If it is not, adjust the stabilising foot so that the refrigerator is level and stable.
We recommend that the refrigerator be turned on and left to run for two to three hours before placing any food inside it. This will allow you to check that it is operating properly and there is adequate cool air in the freezer.
Installation clearances
•Allow a minimum of 30mm clearance on both sides of the refrigerator.
•Allow a minimum of 50mm clearance at the back of the refrigerator.
•Allow a minimum of 50mm (X) clearance above the refrigerator.
•If you do not have a cupboard above the fridge with a rear gap of minimum 100mm (Y), recommended clearance at the top of the refrigerator increases from 50mm to 90mm (x)
•When positioned in a corner, the clearance must be at least 300mm on the hinge side to allow the door to open smoothly so that bins and shelves can
be removed easily. For easy removal of Crisper it is recommended to remove bottle door bin first if
minimum clearance in the corner on hinge side is less than 350mm.

NOTE: Refrigerator doors on all models are designed
to sit proud of cabinetry (not flush). The refrigerator should be placed against a wall of cabinetry and the clearance between the rear of the refrigerator and the wall should not be greater than 75mm.
Initial start up
Refrigerators work by transferring heat from the food inside to the outside air. This operation makes the back and sides of the refrigerator feel warm or even hot particularly at start-up and on warm days.
Your refrigeration uses energy efficient components that may produce differnet noises compared to older refrigerators. Please see troubleshooting guide for more information.
A light frosting will occasionally occur on the cold interior of the freezer if the door is opened frequently. This is normal and the frost will disappear after a few days in
most climates.

Operating tips
Avoid placing food against air outlets as this will impede air circulation.
Make sure that the freezer and fresh food doors are fully closed after you have loaded or removed food from these compartments. If the doors are left partly opened, a heavy frost will coat the inside of the freezer. If this occurs, remove the frost. Ensure that all doors are properly closed to prevent frost from reappearing.
Cleaning
Exterior
Clean the refrigerator with only lukewarm soapy water and a soft cloth. Rinse with clean water and then wipe the
surface with a soft clean cloth to remove any soap residue. Interior
Clean the refrigerator interior regularly. Turn power off. Wipe the interior with a soft cloth and lukewarm soapy water. Thoroughly dry all surfaces and removable parts. Avoid getting water on the refrigerator controls. If you have taken out any removable parts, replace them and switch on the power before re-stocking the refrigerator. Wipe away thoroughly any food spills.
Keep door seals clean
Ensure that the door seals are always clean. Sticky food and drinks can cause seals to adhere to the cabinet and may cause the seals to tear when opening the door.
Wash seals with lukewarm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
CAUTION!
Never use hot water, solvents, commercial kitchen cleaners, aerosol cleaners, metal polishers, caustic or abrasive cleaners or scourers to clean the appliance as they will damage it. Many commercially available cleaning products and detergents contain solvents that will damage your refrigerator. When cleaning, use only a soft cloth and lukewarm soapy water.
WARNING!
EBE models are fitted with Long life LED lighting. In the unlikely event the LED lights should ever fail,
Then they should be serviced by the manufacture, it’s service agent or similar qualified person. Refer page 15 for contact details.
