C.
Sufficient performance may not be obtained, if the room temperature is too low or too high.
3. Do not install where the refrigerator is exposed on a direct sunlight or other heat sources.
4. Install in a atmosphere which is dry or has air ventilation.
5. The refrigerator requires enough air ventilation space around the cabinet to have efficient cooling performance
space of at least 5 cm over the top and 5 cm at rear and 1 cm at both sides for proper air circulation.
6. Ground the refrigerator to prevent electric shock and noise interference. Always ground this refrigerator
when using it in places with high humidity or moisture. (Please consult with retailers or HITACHI service centre.)
7. Adjusting the adjustable legs to keep the left/right refrigerator door level.

Preparations before Use
Beginning
1. Cleaning inside the refrigerator. Wipe the surface gently with soft cloth.
2. Connect the refrigerator to an exclusive wall power outlet.
The refrigerator can be connected to an outlet soon after it is installed.
Surely use with the rated voltage and exclusive power outlet.
3. The compressor will start running in approximately 30 seconds,
if inside is not cold.
4. Allow enough duration for sufficient cooling before storing food.
It may take about 4 hours to fully cool down and could even take about
24 hours when the ambient temperature is high.
1. Keep enough space between food. Several food placed to
close together may obstruct the flow of cold air.
2. Make food cool enough before putting it in the refrigerator.
Putting warm food in the refrigerator raises the inside temperature and wastes electricity.
3. Do not block the cold air vent. This will adversely affect the cold air flow and may not keep
the temperature inside even. Moreover, it could result in food near the vent freezing.
4. Using food wrap or sealed containers prevent the food from drying or transition of smells.
