• Connect your refrigerator to a separate power point. Avoid sharing the power point with other appliances. Do not
use extension cords and double adaptors as the combined weight of two power cords can pull the double
adaptor from the power outlet.
• For power requirements, refer to the information on the serial plate located at the front bottom right-hand side of
the refrigerator when the door is open.
• Ensure your appliance is properly grounded (earthed).
• Connect the appliance to the electrical supply (220V – 240V 50Hz) with the fitted plug and lead.
• Connections to the mains supply should be in accordance with local regulations.
Location
• Do not place your refrigerator in direct sunlight or beside any heat generating appliance such as a cooktop, oven
or dishwasher.

trained and supported service technician as incorrect plumbing can lead to water leaks.

faulty installation or plumbing.
