Safety instructions (continued)
Ensure that the refrigerator is plugged into an earthed mains socket. DO NOT plug into an unearthed mains
socket.
Make sure the mains lead and plug are not squashed or damaged.
• A damaged mains plug or lead can cause short-circuit, re or electric shock.
• If the mains lead is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualied persons
in order to avoid a hazard.
• DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPLACE IT YOURSELF.
Remove any dirt or dust from the mains plug’s pins before connecting to the power supply.
• Dust build-up on the mains plug can cause insulation failure, especially in humid conditions. This can cause short
circuit, re or electric shock. Unplug the mains lead and wipe it with a dry cloth. Never use a wet or damp cloth.
Plug your appliance into the socket, making sure the connection is secure.
• A loosely connected mains plug can cause re or electric shock.
Install the refrigerator in a well-ventilated area.
• The more refrigerant there is in an appliance, the larger the room it should be installed in. If there’s a refrigerant uid
leak, and the appliance is in a small room, the build up of combustible gases is more likely. This can cause re or
explosion. As a guide, for every 8
g of coolant, you’ll need at least 1 cubic metre of space in the room. The data plate
inside the appliance tells you how much refrigerant your refrigerator contains.
The refrigerant (R600a) used in the refrigerator and the gases in the insulation material (cyclopentane) are both
ammable. They also require special disposal procedures.
• Before you dispose of the appliance, make sure none of the pipes on the back are damaged. Refrigerant or gas leaks
can cause re or explosion.
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and servicing.
• Failure to do this can cause electric shock.
If you smell burning or see smoke coming from the refrigerator, disconnect the power immediately and please
consult authorized service centre.

CAUTION
Indicates risk of injury or damage to property.
Do not put glass bottles or containers in the freezer.

Do not open or close the doors by taking hold of the door handles with both hands.
• This may cause personal injury.
If there’s a power cut, avoid opening the refrigerator frequently or putting unchilled
food in it.
• This can cause the temperature in the refrigerator to rise and spoil food stored inside.
If you’re not going to use the refrigerator for a long time, unplug it from the mains.
Also, be careful of the gap between the fridge and freezer doors, especially if they
are both open at the same time.
