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-efciency, 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

classication for which the appliance is designed. Refer to the Specications Section for your appliance’s climate classication.

● Extreme temperatures or environmental conditions may have

negative impact on its performance.

Stored food may spoil.

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.

FAQs

If you feel that the refrigerator is not working properly, check out the following points rst. If the trouble persists, disconnect the mains plug and contact your dealer or an authorized service centre.

General

You hear unusual sounds from the refrigerator.

You hear a sound after the compressor has shut down.

You hear a sound after you have opened or closed the door.

You hear the sound of air or water owing after you have opened the door.

You hear a continuous whining sound.

The compressor is quite loud. • Has the food been packed too tightly together or is the room temperature high?

The compressor has been running for a long time.

Condensation forms on the outside of the refrigerator.

The outside of the refrigerator feels hot to the touch.

The controls on the control panel cannot be operated.

The alarm sounds. • The fridge door has been left ajar. Close the doors.

• Has the refrigerator been installed on a sturdy and level oor?

• Have sufcient clearances been provided around the refrigerator?

• Is anything vibrating on the top of the refrigerator?

• It’s normal to hear some noises when the refrigerator starts or stops operation.

• This is normal, and is often caused by refrigerant owing back to the compressor.

• This is normal, and is due to the difference in air pressure between the inside and outside of the refrigerator.

• This is caused by refrigerant owing the internal pipework.

• This sound is heard while the fan for circulating the cold air is operating.

• Has the food been packed too tightly together or is the room temperature high? In cases like these, the fan for circulating the cold air runs at high speed so it makes a loud noise.

In cases like these, the compressor runs hard so it’s normal for the compressor to be louder.

• When the mains plug has been connected for the rst time, the compressor runs longer than usual in order to cool down the inside of the refrigerator until the set temperatures are reached.

• Has Super Freeze Mode or Super Cool Mode been set?

• Have the doors been opened and closed frequently? Are the doors completely shut?

• Have the food items been packed too tightly together or is the room temperature high?

• When many food items are placed in the refrigerator at one time, the compressor will need to run for a longer period.

• Condensation may form when the humidity in the room is high and is normal. Wipe it off using a dry cloth.

• After the power of the refrigerator is turned on, the refrigerator may become warm until the interior of the compartment is sufciently cooled down.
