Before connecting your refrigerator, be sure to use a properly grounded wall outlet, and
verify the proper voltage and frequency for the electrical supply, as indicated on the
technical specifications label located over the back panel.
(Fig N°1)
If the wall outlet does not fit the plug, do not under any circumstance modify or replace
it, and do not use a plug adapter without a grounding connection.
Do not use an extension cord to connect your refrigerator.
Performance may be affected if voltage varies by 10% or more, and it can damage the
compressor.
Never connect other appliances to the same wall outlet as your refrigerator to avoid
voltage variations.
Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly
and pull straight out from the receptacle to prevent damaging the power cord.
