From installing to running your refrigerator
Where to install your fridge
●
Install in a place where there is no direct
sunlight or heat, and with good ventilation.
This protects against a decrease in cooling power
and saves on electricity bills.
●
Install in a place with low humidity.
This prevents rust, electric shock or fires from
occurring.
●
Install on a solid and level floor.
This prevents vibrations, noise, and partially
open doors or doors left ajar.
Prevent changes or discoloring by its
mass or heat.
※
If the refrigerator adjustment feet sink easily
into the flooring material, please lay a strong
board on top of the flooring.
●
Install away from other appliances.
This prevents noise or image disturbances to
the television, etc.
●
Leave a space of more than 2 cm to
the left and right, and more than 10 cm
from the ceiling, and more than 5 cm
from the back.
This is to allow heat to escape from the top,
the back and sides.
※
If refrigerator is too near to the wall,
it will cause the sound.
Please care the dust within the gap.
Installation
Do not install in an outdoor area
where water can get on it or
where there is a lot of moisture.
Due to insulation failure, it may
cause an electric shock or fire.
Do not get wet
Allow some space around
the refrigerator.
If the refrigerant (gas) leaks, it can
remain in the area and there’s a risk
that it may cause a fire or explosion.
Always follow
instructions
Turning on the power /
installing an earth wire
●
Turn on the power of the refrigerator as soon as possible.
The refrigerator will not be damaged even if you turn on the power
immediately after the installation.
Use a dedicated outlet for the power supply that
meets the rating specified on the rating label.
(The rating label is located on the door-liner
of the refrigerator compartment.)
●
To prevent electric shock, installing an earth wire is
recommended.
Install an earth wire or an earth leakage circuit breaker, especially
when installing takes place where there is a lot of dampness
(wooden floor, washing room, basement, etc.).
How to connect the earth wire
If there is an earth terminal
Connect the earth wire to the earth connection screw ( ), and attach
the earth terminal. Also, for the earth wire (copper wire, diameter 1.6mm),
please purchase at the store where you purchased your refrigerator.
If you do not have an earth terminal
Request one at the store where you purchased your refrigerator and
have the earthing done. (D-class earthing/grounding – to be paid for
by customer.)
(due to risk of electric shock,
explosion.)
Water pipes, gas pipes
(dangerous if lightening strikes.)
Telephone lines or a lightening rod earth
