Electrical Installation
Before connecting your refrigerator, make sure that the voltage from
the outlet where it will be connected is the same as indicated on the
label located next to the plug (in the power cord), or in the refrigerator
nameplate. Turn your refrigerator on to an exclusive outlet, do not use
extension cords or T-type connectors. This type of connection can
cause overload on the power grid, affecting the operation of your
refrigerator and resulting in accidents.
Make sure that the refrigerator is not resting on the power cord.
For your safety, ask an electrician you trust
to check the power grid condition on the
installation place and, for more information,
contact the Technical Service.
If the aplliance’s power voltage is
outside the limits given in allowable
voltage variation table, ask the power
dealership adequacy of voltage
levels and install a voltage regulator
(stabilizer) with power not less than
2000 VA. Damage to the aplliance may
occur if there is, at the installation
place, voltage range out the specified
limits (see table below) or frequent
blackouts. If this happens, remove the
plug from the outlet for 5 minutes and
then reconnect it (check the chapter
Fault and Solutions of this manual).

Ground wire
For your safety, the ground wire must be
installed to an efficient ground and can not be
connected directly to the mains or water, gas
pipes, electricity, telephone, lightning rods,
etc., avoiding possible electrical discharges.
Ask for an electrician you trust to install the
ground wire properly in your residence.
Your aplliance is equipped with 3-pin plug. The
grounding pin power cord can not be cut.
