Installation
! Before operating your new appliance, please read GB these operating instructions carefully. They contain
important information for safe use, installation and care of the appliance.
! Please keep these operating instructions for future reference. Pass them on to possible new owners of the appliance.
Positioning and connection
Positioning
1.Place the appliance in a well-ventilated humidity-free room.
2.Do not obstruct the airflow under and behind the appliance. The compressor and condenser give off heat and require good ventilation to operate correctly and save energy.
3.Ensure the appliance is far away from any sources of heat (direct sunlight, electric stove, etc.).
Electrical connections
After transportation of the appliance, carefully place it vertically and wait at least 3 hours before connecting it to the electricity mains. Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket ensure the following:
•The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with the law.
•The socket can withstand the maximum power of the appliance, which is indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left side of the fridge (e.g. 150 W).
•The voltage must be in the range between the values indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left side (e.g. 220-240V, 50Hz).
•The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance.
If the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an authorised technician to replace it (see After Sales Service). Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.
!Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply cable and the electrical socket must be easily accessible.
!The cable must not be bent or compressed.
!The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by authorised technicians only (see After Sales Service).
!The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety measures not be observed.
Your appliance is supplied with a 13amp fused plug that can be plugged into a 13amp socket for immediate use. Before using the appliance please read the instructions below.
WARNING:
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
Replacing fuse covers:
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13amp ASTA approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be used and the fuse cover re-fitted.
If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained.
Replacement fuse covers:
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the correct colour as indicated by the coloured marking or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug.
Changing the plug:
Removing the plug
If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug and you should wish to remove it to add a longer cable or to re-route the mains cable through partitions, units etc. please ensure that either:
-The plug is replaced by a fused 13amp rewireable plug bearing the BSI mark of approval.
or
-The mains cable is wired directly into a 13amp cable outlet, controlled by a switch (in compliance with BS 5733) which is accessible without moving the appliance.
Disposing of the plug
Cut off and dispose of the supplied plug if it does not fit your socket. The cable should be cut as close as possible to the moulded plug.
Remove the fuse.
WARNING:
To avoid a shock hazard do not insert the discarded plug into a socket anywhere else.

Fitting a new plug
IMPORTANT:
WIRES IN THE MAINS LEAD ARE COLOURED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE...
Green and Yellow |
- Earth |
Blue |
- Neutral |
Brown |
- Live |
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
-Connect Green and Yellow wire to terminal marked 'E' or 
or coloured Green and Yellow.
-Connect Brown wire to terminal marked 'L' or coloured red or brown.
-Connect Blue wire to terminal marked 'N' or coloured Black or Blue.
If a 13amp plug (BS 1363) is used it must be fitted with a 13amp fuse. A 15amp plug must be
protected by a 15amp fuse, either in the plug or adaptor or at the distribution board.
If you are in any doubt about the electrical supply to your machine, consult a qualified electrician before use.
