    CE Notice
    This product has been determined to be in 
    compliance with the Low Voltage Directive 
    (2006/95/EC), the Electromagnetic Compatibility 
    Directive (2004/108/EC) and the Eco-Design

    SEVERE WARNING SIGNS 
    FOR TRANSPORTATION 
    AND SITE
    •  When transporting and installing the 
    appliance, care should be taken to ensure 
    that no parts of the refrigerating circuit are 
    damaged.
    -  Refrigerant leaking from the pipe work could 
    ignite or cause an eye injury. If a leak is detected, 
    avoid any naked fl ames or potential sources of 
    ignition and air the room in which the appliance 
    is standing for several minutes.
    •  In order to avoid the creation of a fl ammable 
    gas-air mixture if a leak in the refrigerating 
    circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the 
    appliance may be sited depends on the amount 
    of refrigerant used.
    •  Never start up an appliance showing any signs 
    of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer. The 
    room where the refrigerator will be sited must 
    be 1m³ in size for every 8g of R600a refrigerant 
    inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant 
    in your particular appliance is shown on the 
    identifi cation plate inside the appliance.

    FOR DISPOSAL
    •  Ensure that none of the pipes on the back 
    of the appliance are damaged prior to 
    disposal.
    •  R600a or R134a is used as a refrigerant. 
    Check the compressor label on the rear of 
    the appliance or the rating label inside the 
    refrigerator to see which refrigerant is used for 
    your refrigerator. When this product contains 
    fl ammable gas (Refrigerant R600a), contact your 
    local authority in regard to safe disposal of this 
    product. Cyclopentane is used as a insulation 
    blowing gas. The gases in insulation material 
    require special disposal procedure. Please 
    contact your local authorities in regard to the 
    environmentally safe disposal of this product. 
    Ensure that none of the pipes on the back of the 
    appliances are damaged prior to disposal. The 
    pipes shall be broke in the open space.
    •  If the appliance contains iso-butane refrigerant 
    (R600a), a natural gas with high environmental 
    compatibility that is, however, also combustible. 
    When transporting and installing the appliance, 
    care should be taken to ensure that no parts of 
    the refrigerating circuit are damaged.
    •  When disposing of this product or other refrigerators, remove the door/door seals, door 
    latch so that small children or animals cannot 
    become trapped inside. Leave the shelves in 
    place so that children may not easily climb 
    inside. Children should be supervised to ensure 
    that they do not play with the old appliance.
    •  
    Please  dispose of the packaging material for this 
    product in an environmentally friendly manner.
    ADDITIONAL TIPS FOR PROPER 
    USAGE
    •  In the event of a power failure, call the local offi ce 
    of your Electricity Company and ask how long it is 
    going to last.
    -  Most power failures that are corrected within 
    an hour or two will not affect your refrigerator 
    temperatures. However, you should minimize the 
    number of door openings while the power is off.
    -  Should the power failure last more than 2 hours, 
    remove all ice in the Ice Bucket.
    -  Should the power failure last more than 24 hours, 
    remove all frozen food.
    •  If  keys are provided with the refrigerator, the 
    keys should be kept out of the reach of children 
    and not in vicinity of the appliance.
    •  The appliance might not operate consistently 
    (possibility of temperature becoming too warm 
    in refrigerator) when sited for an extended period 
    of time below the cold end of the range of 
    temperature for which the refrigerating appliance 
    is designed.
    •  Do not store food which spoils easily at low 
    temperature, such as bananas, melons.
    •  Your appliance is frost free, which means there 
    is no need to manually defrost your appliance, 
    as this will be carried out automatically.
    •  Temperature rising during the defrost can 
    comply with ISO requirement. But if you want 
    to prevent an undue rise in the temperature of 
    the frozen food while defrosting the appliance, 
    please wrap the frozen food in several layers of 
    newspaper.
    •  Any increase in temperature of frozen food 
    during defrosting can shorten its storage life.

    Saving Energy Tips
    -  Install the appliance in a cool, dry room with 
    adequate ventilation.
    Ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight and 
    never put it near a direct source of heat (radiator, for 
    example).
    - Never block any vents or grilles on the appliance.
    -  Allow warm food to cool down before placing it in 
    the appliance.
    -  Put frozen food in the refrigerator to thaw.
    You can then use the low temperatures of the 
    frozen products to cool food in the refrigerator.
    -  Do not keep the door of the appliance open for too 
    long when putting food in or taking food out.
    The shorter time for which the door is open, the less 
    ice will form in the freezer.
    -  Clean the rear of the refrigerator regularly. Dust 
    increases energy consumption.
    - Do not set temperature colder than necessary.
    -   
     
    Ensure suffi cient air exhaust at the refrigerator base 
    and at the back wall of the refrigerator.
    Do not cover air vent openings.
    -  Allow clearance to the right, left, back and top when 
    installing.
    This will help reduce power consumption and keep 
    your energy bills lower.
