Safety Precautions & Instructions

To prevent injury to the user and property damage, the following precautions and instructions must be followed. Incorrect operation due to ignoring of precautions and instruction will cause harm or damage.

Important Safety Precautions:

1.Do not modify the power cord length or sharing of outlet with other appliances and don't replace the power cord with the damaged or unspecified power cord.

It will cause electric shock or fire. If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by authorized service person as specified by the manufacturer.

2.Plug in the power socket properly.

Loose plug-in causes electric shock or fire due to heat generation.

3.Do not switch ON/OFF the refrigerator with wet hands.

It may cause electric shock.

4.Use only dedicated power socket for supply to refrigerator.

Do not use an extension cord; otherwise it will cause overloading and intermittent tripping of other appliances or household lights.

5.Never splash water on your refrigerator.

It may cause short circuit.

6.Do not store.

Do not store explosive and chemicals inside the refrigerator.

7.Grounding (Earthing).

In the event of an electric short circuit, grounding (Earthing) reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. In order to prevent possible electric shock, this appliance must be grounded. Consult a qualified electrician or service person if you have doubts on whether the appliance is properly grounded. Improper use of the grounding plug can result in an electric shock.

Important Safety Instructions:

1. Before use, refrigerator must be properly installed and located as per the installation instructions.

2. Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull it straight out from the outlet. 3. When moving your appliance away from the wall, be careful not to roll over the power cord or damage it in any way.

4. Unplug the power cord from outlet for cleaning or other requirements. Never touch it with wet hands because you can get an electric shock or be hurt.

5.Never damage, process, pull out, or twist the power cord, because damage of power cord may cause a fire or electric shock.

6.After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surface in the freezer compartment, particularly when your hands are damp or wet. Skin could adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.

7. Never place glass utensils or products, which contains liquid items in the freezer compartment, because the expansion of liquid items due to freezing causes the breakage of glass utensils or products.
