BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

Installing and operating your fridge

Before using your fridge, you should pay attention to the following 

points:

• 

The operating voltage for your fridge is 220-240 V at 50Hz.

•  The mains cord of your fridge is fitted with a grounded plug. This 

plug should be used with a grounded receptacle that has a 16 

ampere fuse minimum. If you don’t have a receptacle which 

conforms to this, contact a qualified electrician. 

• 

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 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 space 

not exceeding 75 mm.

Before using your fridge

•  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.
