FIRST TIME USE
Power Source and Grounding
It’s recommended to use the fridge on its own dedicated power outlet for both convenience and safety.
The power outlet must be grounded.
Important! If the supply cord is damaged, cease use and ensure the appliance is completely disconnected
from the power supply.
The power cord must be replaced by Glen Dimplex or an authorised service agent on Glen Dimplex’s
behalf before it is reconnected.
Cleaning Before Use
Wipe the inside of the unit with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda, then rinse with warm water using a
soft fibre cloth or sponge. Wash the shelves and drawers in warm soapy water and dry completely before
replacing in the unit. Clean the exterior of the unit with a damp cloth. Further cleaning instructions and tips
can be found on page 14.
