IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electri-
cal short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical
shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical
current.
This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding
wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
Use an exclusive wall outlet. Do not connect your refrigerator
to extension cords or together with any other appliance in the
same wall outlet. Do not splice the cord.
IMPORTANT WARNING: An empty refrigerator is a very
dangerous attraction to children. Remove either the gasket,
latches, lids or doors from unused appliances, or take some
other action that will guarantee it harmless.
DANGER: Risk of Child Entrapment! Before you throw
away your old refrigerator/freezer:
• Take off the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily
climb inside.
DON’T WAIT! DO IT NOW!
Before connecting the appliance to an electrical power
supply, let it stand for about 2 hours, which will reduce the
possibility of malfunctions in the cooling system due to trans-
port handling.
Clean the appliance thoroughly, especially in the interior (See
Care and Maintenance section).
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
These instructions for use are intended for the user. They
describe the appliance and the correct operating procedures
for safe use.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Try not to open the door too often, especially when the
weather is hot and humid. Once you open the door, close it
as soon as possible.
Every now and then check if the appliance is sufficiently ven-
tilated (adequate air circulation behind the appliance).
Set the thermostat from cooler to warmer settings as soon as
possible (depends on how loaded the appliance is, ambient
temperatures etc.)
Before loading the appliance with packages of fresh foods,
make sure that they are cooled to ambient temperature.
(excluding soups)
Ice and frost layers increase energy consumption, so clean
the appliance as soon as the frost layer is 3-5mm thick.
If the gasket is damaged or the door seal is poor, energy
consumption is substantially higher. To restore efficiency,
replace the gasket.
Always consider instructions stated in sections Positioning
and Energy Saving Tips, otherwise the energy consumption
is substantially higher.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
WARNING:
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk
of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or
serviceman if the grounding instructions are not com-
pletely understood or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
