Safety instructions (continued)
Ensure that the refrigerator is plugged into an earthed mains socket. DO NOT plug into an unearthed mains
socket.
Make sure the mains lead and plug are not squashed or damaged.
• A damaged mains plug or lead can cause short-circuit, re or electric shock.
• If the mains lead is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualied persons
in order to avoid a hazard.
• DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPLACE IT YOURSELF.
Remove any dirt or dust from the mains plug’s pins before connecting to the power supply.
• Dust build-up on the mains plug can cause insulation failure, especially in humid conditions. This can cause short
circuit, re or electric shock. Unplug the mains lead and wipe it with a dry cloth. Never use a wet or damp cloth.
Plug your appliance into the socket, making sure the connection is secure.
• A loosely connected mains plug can cause re or electric shock.
Install the refrigerator in a well-ventilated area.
• The more refrigerant there is in an appliance, the larger the room it should be installed in. If there’s a refrigerant uid
leak, and the appliance is in a small room, the build up of combustible gases is more likely. This can cause re or
explosion. As a guide, for every 8
inside the appliance tells you how much refrigerant your refrigerator contains.
The refrigerant (R600a) used in the refrigerator and the gases in the insulation material (cyclopentane) are both
ammable. They also require special disposal procedures.
• Before you dispose of the appliance, make sure none of the pipes on the back are damaged. Refrigerant or gas leaks
can cause re or explosion.
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and servicing.
• Failure to do this can cause electric shock.
If you smell burning or see smoke coming from the refrigerator, disconnect the power immediately and please
consult authorized service centre.

Installation
This section explains how to install your appliance for the most energy-efcient, safe and quiet operation.
Dimensions
W601 x D648 x H1898 (mm)
Unpacking your appliance
Remove all packaging and tape.
Choosing the right location
Ventilation
As the appliance gives off heat during operation, it should be installed
in a well-ventilated, dry room with plenty of space above and behind it,
as shown in Figure 1.
If you can hear it vibrating, it needs more space.
Temperature
The room temperature affects the refrigerator’s energy-efciency, i.e.
how much electricity it uses to chill and freeze foods.
For the best results, install your refrigerator:
● away from direct sunlight
● away from radiators, cookers or other heat sources
● where the room temperature corresponds to the climate classication
for which the appliance is designed. Refer to the Specications
Section for your appliance’s climate classication.
Level
Install on a level oor that’s strong enough to support a fully loaded
refrigerator.
You can adjust the level of the refrigerator by screwing or unscrewing
the two adjustable front legs as shown in Figure 2.
This prevents vibration and noise.
If the appliance is to stand on a carpeted or vinyl oor, put a solid board
underneath it rst. This will protect your oor against possible colour
change due to heat given off by the appliance.

home, please contact our service centre listed on the
attached sheet or access to our Web site
(http://panasonic.net).
We could not be held responsible if you replace the
hinges by yourself.
Installing the spacers
Install the spacers on the back panel of the refrigerator to ensure the minimum
amount of space required to allow the heat generated by the refrigerator.
Attach to the back panel of the refrigerator after
removing the double-sided tape's release liner.

Installation (continued)
Cleaning
After installation, wipe the appliance clean with warm water.
Connecting the mains plug to the household mains socket
You can connect the mains plug immediately after installation.
When the mains plug is connected to the household mains socket, the temperature display starts
ashing as shown in the gure on the right, and cooling starts inside the refrigerator.
The temperatures displayed at this time are not the actual temperatures.
When the temperature of the fridge reaches 8 °C, the freezer reaches -12 °C and the Vitamin-Safe
Zone reaches 8 °C, the temperature display stops ashing and lights, and it shows the actual
temperature.
It takes about half a day to reach the set temperatures (when the room temperature is around
32 °C, there is no food inside the refrigerator, and the doors are closed).
The actual temperatures may not be displayed for a while after the temperature display stops
ashing.
Place food inside the refrigerator only after conrming that the refrigerator compartment has been cooled.
Notes:
• Cooling may take longer in the summer months or at other times when the room temperature is higher.
• While the temperature display is ashing, the alarm sounds to warn that the temperature has risen. The alarm can be
turned off by pressing
• If you need to unplug the refrigerator, wait at least 10 minutes before you plug it back in again. If not, you might damage
the compressor.
Ambient room temperature
You’ll nd your refrigerator’s climate classication on the rating plate in the left side of the refrigerator compartment. It
shows the room temperature the appliance is designed to work in.
Climate classication Permitted ambient temperature
SN (Extended Temperate) +10°C to 32°C
N (Temperate) +16°C to 32°C
ST (Subtropical) +16°C to 38°C
T (Tropical) +16°C to 43°C
.
For saving energy
1. Install the refrigerator in a dry, cool and well-ventilated location. The colder the ambient temperature, the better the
efciency. (Please refer to Page 5 for dimensions and clearance)
2. The combination of drawers and shelves that result in the largest in volume and the most efcient use of energy for the
refrigerator.
• Remove all drawers in the freezer.
• Attach the drawers and shelves in the refrigerator to the positions illustrated on the section of “Parts” (P.7).
3. Do not over ll the refrigerator to allow the air to circulate.
4. Open the doors only when necessary and as briey as possible.
5. Occasionally clean the ventilation openings at the bottom of the refrigerator with a vacuum cleaner, etc.
(Take care not to damage the refrigerant pipe inside the cover)
6. When setting to “Super Freeze Mode”, power consumption will be increased.
