1.2 Installation warnings
Before using your fridge for the first
time, please pay attention to the
following points:
• The operating voltage for your fridge
is 240 V at 50Hz.
• The plug must be accessible after
installation.
• Your fridge may have an odour when
it is operated for the first time. This is
normal and the odour will fade when
your fridge starts to cool.
•
Before connecting your fridge, 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 fridge must never be used out-
doors or exposed to rain.
• Your appliance must be at least 50 cm
away from stoves, gas ovens and
heater cores, and at least 5 cm away
from electrical ovens.
• If your fridge is placed next to a deep
freezer, there must be at least 2 cm
between them to prevent humidity
forming on the outer surface.
• Do not cover the body or top of fridge
with lace. This will affect the perfor-
mance of your fridge.
• Clearance of at least 150 mm is requi-
red at the top of your appliance. Do
not place anything on top of your
appliance.
• Do not place heavy items on the
appliance.
• Clean the appliance thoroughly before
use (see Cleaning and Maintenance).
• 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. Return
all parts to the fridge after cleaning.
• The installation procedure into a kit-
chen unit is given in the installation
manual. This product is intended to be
used in proper kitchen units only.
1.3 During Usage
• Do not connect your fridge to the
mains electricity supply using an
extension lead.
• Do not use damaged, torn or old
plugs.
• Do not pull, bend or damage the cord.
• Do not use plug adapter.
• This appliance is designed for use by
adults. Do not allow children to play
with the appliance or hang off the
door.
• Never touch the power cord/plug with
wet hands. This may cause a short
circuit or electric shock.
• Do not place explosive or flammable
material in your fridge. Place drinks
with high alcohol content vertically in
the fridge compartment and make
sure their tops are tightly closed.
Old and Out-of-order Fridges
• If your old fridge or freezer has a lock,
break or remove the lock before
discarding it, because children may
get trapped inside it and may cause
an accident.
• Old fridges and freezers contain iso-
lation material and refrigerant with
CFC. Therefore, take care not to harm
environment when you are discarding
your old fridges.
