IMPORTANT INFORMATION 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Do not lay your fridge on its back, top or sides or at any angle exceeding 30º. If your fridge has been handled 
this way, stand the fridge upright for 12 hrs to allow the internal fluids to redistribute evenly before use. 
Never operate your fridge directly from a 240 V or AC power supply.  
Do not use a modified sine wave inverter to operate your fridge.

securing tapes from the fridge. To avoid injury and causing damage to the appliance, be extremely cautious 
when using sharp or pointed tools to complete this task. Do not connect an appliance that has been damaged,
