Important Safety Information
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using your refrigerator, follow the precautions listed below:
ELECTRICAL
REQUIREMENTS
WARNING
Improper use of the grounding plug
can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or
serviceman if the grounding instruc-
tions are not completely understood,
or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
CAUTIONS
FOR HOUSEHOLD
REFRIGERATING
APPLIANCES
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short cir-
cuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape
wire for the electrical current.
This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
Use an exclusive wall outlet. Do not connect your refrigerator to exten-
sion cords or together with any other appliance in the same wall outlet.
Do not splice the cord.
IMPORTANT WARNING: An empty freezer/refrigerator is a very
dangerous attraction to children. Remove either the gasket, latches,
lids or doors from unused appliances, or take some other action that
will guarantee it harmless.
DANGER: Risk of Child Entrapment! Before you throw away your
old refrigerator/freezer:
• Take off the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb
inside.
DON'T WAIT! DO IT NOW!
- Storing too much food or opening the door too frequently will cause the
refrigerator to use more electrical consumption which can lead to a
malfunction.
- Do not place objects on the work top that are heavy, sharp or
corrosive.
- Anytime the power is disconnected from the unit wait 5-10 minutes
before plugging back in.
- Do not store bottled drinks in the freezer, in order to keep the bottle
from breaking and damaging the refrigerator.
- Open the door as little as possible during power failures.
- When defrosting, never use any sharp or metallic objects to remove the
frost on the surface of the evaporator as it will damage the evaporator.
- Do not touch foods and containers in the freezer compartment with wet
hands.
- Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is wet
and hot. Once you open the door close it as soon as possible.
- Every now and then check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated
(adequate air circulation behind the appliance).
- For household refrigerating appliances the recommended setting for the
thermostate is the medium setting.
- Before loading the appliance with packages of fresh foods, make sure
they are cooled to ambient temperature.
- Ice and frost layers increase energy consumption, so defrost the
appliance as soon as the layer is 3-4 mm thick.
- If it is the outer condenser, the rear wall should be always clean free of
dust or any impurities.
