Installing and Operating your Fridge
Before making the connection to the power supply, ensure that the voltage on the
nameplate corresponds to the voltage of the electrical system at your home.
Operating voltage for your fridge is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
Before starting to use your fridge, please contact the nearest authorized servicer if
help is needed with the installation, operation and usage of your fridge.
The main power cord of your fridge has a grounded plug. This
plug should be used with a grounded receptacle that has a 16
amper fuse minimum. If you don’t have a receptacle conforming
with this, please have one installed by a qualified electrician.
We do not take responsibility for any damages that occur due to
ungrounded usage.
Place your fridge in a place where it is not exposed to direct
sunlight.
Your appliance should be at least 50 cm away from stoves,
ovens and heater cores, and should be at least 5 cm away from
electrical ovens.
This appliance should never be used outdoors or left under the
rain.
Fit the plastic wall spacers to the condenser on the back of the refrigerator in order to
prevent it from touching the wall and affecting performance.
When your fridge is placed next to a deep freezer, there should be at least 2 cm
between the appliances to prevent humidity on the outer surface. Do not place anything
on your fridge, and install your fridge in a suitable place where there is at least 15 cm
of clearance space available on the upper side.
If you place your fridge next to your kitchen cabinets, leave a
space of 2 cm between the appliance and the cabinets.
Install the distance adjustment plastic (the part with black vanes
at the rear) by turning it 90° to prevent the condenser from
touching the wall.
The adjustable front legs should be set at an appropriate height to allow your fridge
to operate in a stable and proper way. You can adjust the legs by turning them
clockwise or counter-clockwise. This should be done before placing food in the fridge.
Before using your fridge, wipe all parts with warm water mixed with a teaspoonful of
sodium bicarbonate and then rinse with clean water and dry. After cleaning, replace
all parts in their proper locations in the fridge.
Before Using your Fridge
When operated for the first time or after transportation, keep your
fridge in the upright position for at least 3 hours before plugging it
in to allow efficient operation. Otherwise, you may damage the
compressor.
Your fridge may have a slight odor when it is operated for the first time. The odor will
fade away when your fridge starts to cool.
