Installation; Electrical Connections - Mitsubishi Electric MR-508EK Series Operating Instructions Manual

2. Installation

Install on a completely flat and rigid surface.
Using the two front adjustable feet, ensure that the
refrigerator is positioned firmly and level on the floor.
Now open the doors approximately half way,
and extend the front adjustable feet equally until
the doors close by themselves.
To ensure adequate ventilation for your refrigerator,
spaces of 20mm on both sides, 50mm at the rear,
and 100mm above the refrigerator are recommended.
Insufficient spacing will decrease cooling efficiency,
resulting in unnecessary energy consumption.
Choose a location which is not exposed to sunlight,
is relatively free from dust, heat and humidity,
and offers good ventilation in order to guarantee
that heat radiation will not be impaired.
Use in hot spring areas
Corrosion control treatment may be required for the refrigerant circuit (pipe) due to generation of corrosive gases.
Contact the retail store where you purchased the refrigerator.
Warning
Do not obstruct the refrigerator vents or the space around the refrigerator.
If refrigerant leaks, it may accumulate and catch fire or explode.
How to remove the energy label
Remove the energy label carefully. A glue residue may remain,
particularly if the label has been in place for a long period of time.
Apply either Eucalyptus or Tea Tree oil directly on any residue.
Do not allow the oil to run or drip onto plastic parts as it may
cause the plastic to degrade and potentially crack over time.
Allow the oil to sit for approximately 1-2 minutes,
or until the glue residue has softened.
Wipe off with a damp cloth.
If any residue remains, repeat the above process.
Rinse with clear water.
Dry thoroughly.
Do not damage the refrigerant circuit (pipes) or drive screws into it.
Although R600a refrigerants are combustible, the refrigerant circuit is hermetically sealed and normally leaks will not occur.
Warning
Should the refrigerant circuit be damaged:
1. Do not use flames or electrical appliances nearby.
2. Open the windows to fully ventilate the room.
Then, contact the retail store where you purchased the refrigerator.

3. Electrical Connections

Important: For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet.
This is recommended for best performance and also in order to prevent the overloading of household wiring
circuits, which may cause a fire hazard. Extension cords are not recommended.
Make sure that the outlet provides the correct voltage.
If your refrigerator has a grounding plug, use it correctly. The 3-point plug must be inserted into a mating
3-point grounded receptacle. If the installation location does not have a proper 3-point grounding wall
receptacle, the proper type must be installed. The ground point should never be cut or removed.
If your refrigerator has an ungrounding plug, connect the ground wire to the ground connection screw
provided at the lower rear side of the refrigerator.
