BEFORE USING YOUR FRIDGE
tops are tightly closed.
• When removing ice from the ice-making compartment, do not touch it. Ice
may cause frost burns and/or cuts.
• Do not touch frozen goods with wet hands. Do not eat ice-cream or ice cubes
immediately after you have taken them out of the ice-making compartment.
• Do not re-freeze frozen goods after they have defrosted. This may cause health issues
such as food poisoning.
• Secure any accessories in the fridge during transportation to prevent damage to the
accessories.
• Do not use plug adapter.
1.4 Installing and Operating your Fridge
Before starting to use your fridge, you should pay attention to the following points.
• The operating voltage for your fridge is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
• CAUTION! Never replace any electrical parts inside the refrigerator. In cases requiring
replacement, contact Authorised Technical Service.
• 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 least 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 place heavy items on the appliance.
• Do not place 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.
• No carpets, rugs, etc. which may obstruct air circulation should be laid
under the refrigerator.
• 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 space not
exceeding 75 mm.
