In order to allow your fridge to reach the operating temperature after being
connected to mains, do not open the doors frequently or place large quantities of
food in the fridge. Please note that, depending on the ambient temperature, it
may take 24 hours for your fridge to reach the operating temperature.

A 5 minute delay function is applied to prevent damage to the compressor of your
fridge when connecting or disconnecting to mains, or when an energy breakdown
occurs. Your fridge will begin to operate normally after 5 minutes.

Important installation instructions
This appliance is designed to work in difficult climate conditions (up to 43 degrees C or 110
degrees F) and is powered with ‘Freezer Shield’ technology which ensures that the frozen
food in the freezer will not defrost even if the ambient temperature falls as low as -15 °C. So
you may then install your appliance in an unheated room without having to worry about
frozen food in the freezer being spoilt. When the ambient temperature returns to normal,
you may continue using the appliance as usual.
Lighting
When the product is plugged in for the first time, the interior lights may turn on 1 minute
late due to opening tests.
