Air Circulation
The compressor and the condenser produce heat when
they are working, so you should create an efficient air
circulation in order to prevent excessive heating. In
order to ventilate the area where you have installed your
refrigerator, there should be a window at the place
which you should open every now and then in order to
provide the necessary air circulation. This will also
guarantee the moisture of the room to drop.
In order for your refrigerator to work efficiently, take
make sure that you do the following:
- If you want to place your refrigerator at a place with a
closed ceiling, you should leave a space of at least 10
cm distance from its top to the ceiling.
- You should leave a space of at least 5 cm distance from
its sides to the wall.
- You should leave a space of at least 5 cm distance
from its back to the wall. You should use the
distance plastics that have been provided for this
purpose.
Protect your refrigerator from direct heat
sources
Do not place your refrigerator at the direct sun shine
and near to heat sources, like ovens.
Installing your refrigerator
Pay attention that the place you install your refrigerator
is even and level. If the place you place your refrigerator
is not exactly even, use the legs of your refrigerator and
set them in order to fix your refrigerator and make it
stand secure on the ground.
Grounding
Before you make the power connections of your
refrigerator, control if and make sure that the mains
connection at your home is compliant with the voltage
value specifications that are stated on the data plate at
the inside of your refrigerator. For your own safety, use
grounded connections for powering your refrigerator. If
there is no grounded connection at the electric socket,
we recommend you to call a professional electrician.
Before you connect your refrigerator to the
power connection
After your refrigerator has arrived at your home, keep it
straight and wait for 3 hours. After you have connected
its power cable to the mains connection, let it work for
at least 4 hours before you put any food into it.
Ensure that the power supply voltage complies with the
figures stated on the rating plate inside the fridge
compartment.
The operational voltage of your refrigerator is 220 Volt.
