Electrical safety
• Voltage: Before connecting and turning on the fridge, ensure the electrical voltage
and circuit frequency correspond to those indicated on the appliance rating label.
• Connection: Plug the appliance into a properly earthed, 3-prong, 220~240V AC
50Hz wall outlet with an electrical fuse protection of at least 10A at the mains. Use
an electrical outlet that cannot easily be turned off accidentally. It is recommended
that a separate circuit, serving only your appliance be provided.
• Power plug: Do not modify the cord and plug provided with the appliance. Improper
use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electric shock. If the plug does not
fit your power outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
• Power cord: Do not kink or damage the power cord; do not leave it exposed or
dangling. Secure it at the back so no one steps on or places anything on the cord or
against it. Keep the cord out of reach of children. When moving the appliance, make
sure not to damage the power cord.
• No adaptor, no extension cord: Do not use an adaptor or an extension cord. Do
not overload the electrical circuit.
• Protect from moisture: To protect against the risk of electric shock, do not
immerse the unit, cord, or plug in water or spray any other liquid. Do not connect or
disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
• WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or personal injury, always
unplug the appliance from the socket when not in use, when moving and before
cleaning or servicing.
• Disconnect: Never unplug the unit by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug
firmly and pull straight out from the power point.
• Electrical work: Any electrical work required for the installation of this appliance
should be carried out by a qualified electrician.
