safety information _5
•
In order to avoid the creation of a
ammable gas-air mixture if a leak in the
refrigerating circuit occurs, the size of the
room in which the appliance may be sited
depends on the amount of refrigerant used.
Never start up an appliance showing any
signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your
dealer.
The room must be 1m³ in size for every 8g
of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance.
The amount of refrigerant in your particular
appliance is shown on the identification
plate inside the appliance.
ADDITIONAL TIPS FOR
PROPER USAGE
• In the event of a power failure, call the local
office of your Electricity Company and ask how
long it is going to last.
- Most power failures that are corrected in an
hour or two will not affect your refrigerator
temperatures.
However, you should minimize the number of
door openings while the power is off.
• If the key is provided with refrigerator, the keys
should be kept out of the reach of children and
not in vicinity of the appliance.
• The appliance might not operate consistently
(possibility of temperature becoming too warm
in refrigerator) when sited for an extended
period of time below the cold end of the range
of temperatures for which the refrigerating
appliance is designed.
• Do not store food which spoils easily at low
temperature, such as bananas, melons.
• Your appliance is frost free, which means there
is no need to manually defrost your appliance,
as this will be carried out automatically.
Saving Energy Tips
- Install the appliance in a cool, dry room with
adequate ventilation.
Ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight
and never put it near a direct source of heat
(radiator, for example).
- Never block any vents or grilles on the
appliance.
- Allow warm food to cool down before placing it
in the appliance.
- Put frozen food in the refrigerator to thaw.
You can then use the low temperatures of the
frozen products to cool food in the refrigerator.
- Do not keep the door of the appliance open for
too long when putting food in or taking food out.
The shorter time for which the door is open, the
less ice will form in the freezer.
- Clean the rear of the refrigerator regularly.
Dust increases energy consumption.
- Do not set temperature colder than necessary.
- Ensure sufficient air exhaust at the refrigerator
base and at the back wall of the refrigerator.
Do not cover air vent openings.
- Allow clearance to the right, left, back and top
when installing.
This will help reduce power consumption and
keep your energy bills lower.
