1.2 Installation warnings
Before using your fridge freezer for
the first time, please pay attention to
the following points:
•
The operating voltage for your fridge
freezer is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
•
The plug must be accessible after ins-
tallation.
•
Your fridge freezer may have an odour
when it is operated for the first time.
This is normal and the odour will fade
when your fridge freezer starts to
cool.
•
Before connecting your fridge freezer,
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 un-
grounded usage.
•
Place your fridge freezer where it will
not be exposed to direct sunlight.
•
Your fridge freezer must never be
used outdoors 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 freezer 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
freezer with lace. This will affect the
performance of your fridge freezer.
•
Clearance of at least 150 mm is re-
quired 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 freezer, wipe
all parts with a solution of warm water
and a teaspoon of sodium bicarbo-
nate. Then, rinse with clean water and
dry. Return all parts to the fridge free-
zer after cleaning.
