Before using the appliance, you should pay attention to the following points
:
• The
operating voltage for your fridge is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
• The plug must be accessible after installation.
• Before connecting your fridge freezer, ensure that the information on the data plate (voltage and
connected load) matches that of the mains electricity supply. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
• Insert the plug into a socket with an efficient ground connection. If the socket has no ground contact or the
plug does not match, we recommend you consult a qualified electrician for assistance.
• The appliance must be connected with a properly installed fused socket. The power supply (AC) and voltage
at the operating point must match with the details on the name plate of the appliance (the name plate is
located on the inside left of the appliance).
• We do not accept responsibility for any damages that occur due to ungrounded usage.
• Place your fridge where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Your appliance should be at least 50 cm away from stoves, gas ovens and heater cores, and at lea
st 5 cm
away from electrical ovens.
• Your fridge should never be used outdoors or exposed to rain.
• When your fridge is placed next to a deep freezer, there should be at least 2 cm between them to prevent
humidity forming on the outer surface.
• Do not p
lace anything on your fridge, and install your fridge in a suitable place so that at least 15 cm of free
space is available above it.
• Use the adjustable front legs to make sure your appliance is level and stable. You can adjust the legs by
turning them in either direction. This should be done before placing food in the fridge.
• Before using your fridge, wipe all parts with a solution of warm water and a teaspoon of sodium
bicarbonate, then rinse with clean water and dry. Place all parts in the fridge after cleaning.
• Install the plastic distance guide (the part with black vanes at the rear) by turning it 90° (as shown in the
figure) to prevent the condenser from touching the wall.
• The refrigerator should be placed against a wall with a free s
pace not exceeding 75 mm.
Before using the appliance
•
When using your fridge for the first time, or after transportation, keep it in an upright position for at least
3 hours before plugging into the mains. This allows efficient operation and prevents damage to the
compressor.
• Your fridge may have a smell when it is operated for the first time. This is normal and the smell will fade
away when your fridge starts to cool.
