Transporting Your Refrigerator (Transport For Moving) - Hitachi R-F7300XS How To Use Manual

Plug the power cord.
4
It is not a problem to plug in the power cord soon after installing the refrigerator.
Use a wall outlet exclusively when connecting the power cord. (Alternating current 220 - 240V, rated 10A or more)
● Check that the power plug or the cord is not wedged between the back of the refrigerator and the wall in order to prevent the cord from getting hot.
Cooling inside the refrigerator starts.
● It may take more than 4 hours to cool well the inside of the refrigerator, depending on conditions such as the ambient
temperature or storage state of foods. It may take 24 hours or more in summer, etc.
Do not put ice cream, uncooled foods or perishable foods in it until the inside of the refrigerator is cooled well.
● Perform " Ice Maker Cleaning " when using the automatic ice making function for the first time.
● A series of ice making operation will start automatically after the inside of the refrigerator is cooled well.
(When using for the first time, it may take 24 hours and more to make ice.)
Notice
● If you wish to install the refrigerator in a hot spring area exposed to sulfide gas, you may need to apply anti-rust
treatment to the piping. Contact your dealer in advance. Failure caused by sulfide gas will not be covered under
guarantee.
● After inserting the power plug into a wall outlet, you will hear noise from the refrigerator, which is preparing for
operation. You may also hear a louder noise from the compressor or fan until the inside is cooled down enough.
● It may smell of plastics in the beginning when you start to use. Keep the room well-ventilated.
Such smell will disappear gradually.
● Do not peel off the seal on the back or plastics at the lower part of the side.
● When a magnet or suction cup is attached on the side of the body or the surface of a door, it may
leave a mark.
● When you attach a paper sheet on the door surface in a high ambient temperature, dew may
form on the door surface, or the paper may absorb moisture.
