CHAPTER -1: SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using your Fridge
• Before setting up your fridge, check for any visible damage. Do not install or use your fridge if it is damaged.
• When using your fridge for the first time, keep it in an upright position for at least 3 hours before plugging
into the mains. This will allow efficient operation and prevents damage to the compressor.
• You may notice a light odor when using your fridge for the first time. This is perfectly normal and will fade
away as the fridge starts to cool.
