Installing and operating your fridge freezer

Before using your fridge freezer for the first time, please pay attention to the following points:

• The plug must be accessible after installation.

• Your fridge freezer may have an odour when it is operated for the first time. This is normal

and the odour will fade when your fridge freezer starts to cool.

• Before connecting your fridge freezer, ensure that the information on the data plate (voltage and connected load) matches that of the mains electricity supply. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

• Insert the plug into a socket with an efficient ground connection. If the socket has no ground contact or the plug does not match, we recommend you consult a qualified electrician for assistance.

• The appliance must be connected with a properly installed fused socket. The power supply (AC) and voltage at the operating point must match with the details on the name plate of the appliance (the name plate is located on the inside left of the appliance).

• We do not accept responsibility for any damages that occur due to ungrounded usage.

• Place your fridge freezer where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight.

• Your fridge freezer must never be used outdoors or exposed to rain.

• Your appliance must be at least 50 cm away from stoves, gas ovens and heater cores,

and at least 5 cm away from electrical ovens.

• If your fridge freezer is placed next to a deep freezer, there must be at least 2 cm between them to prevent humidity forming on the outer surface.

• Do not cover the body or top of fridge freezer with lace. This will affect the performance of your fridge freezer.

If your refrigerator includes a fan condenser

The condenser of your fridge is placed at the bottom of cabinet. As a result of that, assemble the spacer by fixing it to holes on the cover bottom panel and turn 90° that’s shown below figure for arranging the distance between the refrigerator and the back wall at where you place the fridge. You can move the fridge towards the back wall until that point.

The distance between the appliance and back wall must be a maximum of 75 mm.

Plastic for distance setting

Before Using your Fridge
