Safety Precautions
DO NOT use the fridge/freezer if
it is faulty or damaged. Unplug it
from the power supply and call
your local service centre.
If the power cord is damaged,
have it replaced by the manu-
facturer, an approved service
centre or a qualified electrician.
DO NOT expose the fridge/
freezer to direct sunlight.
DO NOT install it next to a
source of heat (oven, radiator).
If you must install the fridge/
freezer near a source of heat,
ensure that there is sufficient
insulation between the two
appliances.
DO NOT allow water to splash or
run on to the back of the fridge/
freezer.
Water impairs the insulation of
the electrical parts and may
cause an electric short circuit or
risk of electric shock.
DO NOT allow children to:
◆ Play in or around the fridge/
freezer
◆ Hang on the refrigerator
door
Children may be injured and the
appliance may be damaged.
To maintain the efficiency of your
fridge/freezer, DO NOT leave the
doors open for any longer than
necessary.
Make sure that the doors are
carefully pushed closed at all
times.
DO NOT store volatile chemicals,
such as ether and benzene, in
the fridge/freezer. Besides
damaging the food, the fumes
can build up and cause an
explosion.
DO NOT use flammable sprays,
such as lacquer or paint, near
the fridge/freezer.
The appliance must be positioned
so that the plug is accessible after
installation
The appliance is not intended for
use by young children or infirm
persons without supervision.

Main Features
Your fridge/freezer is fitted with several useful features, to help you store food as efficiently and as
hygienically as possible.
Feature Description
Auto-defrost When sufficient frost has accumulated in the fridge/freezer, the auto-defrost feature
starts up automatically. The frost is thawed and the thaw water is collected in an
evaporation tray, which allows it to evaporate.
This operation is fully automatic and requires no intervention by you.
Bio-deodorizer This integrated ventilation system helps remove odor from the refrigerator, by moving
(OPTION) the air in such a way that smells cannot collect and contaminate the food. The
bio-deodorizer is located at the top of fresh food compartment.
Chiller compartment The chiller compartment freezes only the surface of the food to help:
(OPTION)
◆ Preserve the taste of the food
◆ Prolong the freshness
Adjustable shelves The accessories inside your fridge/freezer can be placed in the positions that best suit
and containers your requirements and the food to be stored. The specially large compartments in the
bottom of the door are very practical when chilling bottles of drinks for example.

Various factors must be taken into account when choosing where to install your fridge/freezer.
For the personal safety of you and your family, your fridge/freezer
must be:
◆ Plugged into its own individual wall outlet with the
correct voltage and frequency, as indicated inside the
refrigerator door
◆ Properly earthed (do not ground the fridge/freezer with a
telephone line, gas pipe, and so on)
To minimise the possibility of electric shocks from the appliance, the
wall outlet must also be earthed; have it checked by a qualified
electrician. If it is not earthed, it is your personal responsibility and
obligation to have it replaced with a properly earthed outlet, or use a
different power point.
If the power cord is damaged, avoid a hazard by
replacing it through the manufacturer or its service
agent or a similarly qualified person.
In case of power plug without ground terminal.
◆ Connect one side of the ground wire (yellow/green
or green color) with the ground screw, another side
of the ground terminal with steel or copper pipe such
as water pipe tap.
