2. Positioning Your Appliance

Choosing the right location

This appliance should be installed in a room, which is dry and
well ventilated.
In order to ensure adequate ventilation, the appliance should
be at least 15 mm clear on all sides from kitchen cabinets,
and any units placed above the appliance must be clear by
15 mm – allowing adequate ventilation for the appliance. See
clearance diagram.

�����
If located close to a corner adequate spacing must be left for
door opening and removal of shelves. Refer to diagram.
This appliance should be 10 cm at least from any electric or
gas cooker and 30 cm from any coal or oil stove. If this is not
possible, ensure that appropriate insulation is used.
Avoid exposing the appliance to direct sunlight, and sources
of heat (radiators, heaters, cookers, etc.).

If this appliance is situated in a cold environment (shed, out
house, garage etc.) it will affect its performance. You may find
that the performance of the appliance is not consistent and
this may damage foods. A consistent ambient temperature of
10°C or above is recommended.

Connection to the electricity supply

Connect the appliance to the electrical supply (220 – 240V ~
50Hz) with the plug and lead, which are fitted. Connections
to the mains supply should be in accordance with local
regulations.
This appliance will operate within a range of 187-

253V. Operation outside this range may result
in damage to the control panel, thermostat or
compressor, unless a regulator with a capacity of
750W, or higher, is installed.
The appliance must be plugged into an earthed

socket.
• Always make sure that the plug is accessible after the
appliance has been positioned.
• The refrigerator is supplied with a standard three-pin
plug, of which the one for grounding should never be
removed.
Care for the external cable

unplugging the refrigerator.
• Ensure that the refrigerator does not trap the electric
cable.
