Allow an adequate space and install the fridge/freezer on a firm, level floor.
• If the appliance is not level, there may be unusual noises and poor cooling.
• Wait for at least one hour before plugging the appliance in.
Clean the fridge/freezer.
• Wipe and clean the appliance inside and outside with a damp cloth.
Plug the fridge/freezer into a wall socket used exclusively by this appliance.
• This appliance must be properly earthed.
Use of an earthed socket exclusively for the appliance:
• If you are using a socket with an earthing terminal, you
do not require a separate earthing connection.
Use of a non-earthed socket:
• Connect the “earthing wire” to the copper plate and bury
it at a depth of at least 25 cm in the ground.
If the front of the appliance is slightly higher than the rear, the door can be opened and closed more easily.
Place the food in the fridge/freezer.
• Set the temperature control to the colder temperature and let the refrigerator operate for one
hour. The freezer should get slightly chilled and the motor should run smoothly with a soft hum
and no noise. Your fridge/freezer is operated by a compressor which switches “on and off” to
maintain the internal temperature. When the compressor is new, it requires running in for a period
of up to five months. During this period, it may be slightly noisy. This is quite normal and does not
represent a fault.
