Electrical connection
• WARNING!
It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply; the plug must
therefore be easily accessible after installation.
• Before plugging in your new fridge, let it stand upright for at least 2 hours. This will allow the refrigerant
gases to settle into the compressor and reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system.
• The appliance must be earthed. The plug of the power supply cord is equipped with a contact for this
purpose. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (earth) prong from the power cord.
If the plug does not fit your outlet, consult a licensed electrician for advice to have the outlet changed.
• Plug the unit into a dedicated, properly earthed wall outlet. Ensure that your outlet voltage and circuit
frequency correspond to the voltage stated on the rating label.
• Secure the fridge's supply cord behind the unit. Do not leave it exposed or dangling to prevent injury and
accidental disconnection from the power supply.
• Adjust the temperature control as described below.
• When first starting up, and after a period out of use, allow the unit to cool down for at least 2–3 hours
(4 hours if starting up during warm weather in summer) before placing food in the fridge.
