General Safety Instructions
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
Read this manual thoroughly before first use, even if you are familiar with this type of product. The safety
precautions enclosed herein reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury when correctly adhered to. Keep the
manual in a safe place for future reference, along with the completed warranty card, purchase receipt and carton. If
applicable, pass these instructions on to the next owner of the appliance.
Pay particular attention to messages that follow this safety alert symbol or the words DANGER, WARNING or
CAUTION. These words are used to alert you to a potential hazard that can seriously injure you and others. The
instructions will tell you how to reduce the chance of injury and let you know what can happen if the instructions are
not followed.
This symbol alerts you to take care as the appliance contains flammable materials: isobutane as refrigerant
and cyclopentane as insulation blowing gas. While isobutane (R600a) is a gas with a high level of environmental
compatibility, it is nevertheless flammable. Do not expose the appliance to high heat, sparks and open flames.
During transport and installation, ensure that none of the components of the refrigerant circuit become damaged.
Refrigerant matters
WARNING: Do not damage the refrigerant circuit! Never use an appliance with a damaged refrigerant circuit! If the
refrigerant circuit becomes damaged, avoid proximity to open fires and all types of heat and ignition sources.
Thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is located. The room for installing the appliance must be at
least 1m³ per 8g of refrigerant. The amount and type of refrigerant in the appliance can be found in the Technical
Specifications on the ‘Basic Instructions Page’ and on the appliance rating plate.
It is hazardous for anyone other than an authorised service person to service
this appliance. In Queensland, the authorised service person MUST hold a Gas
Work Authorisation for hydrocarbon refrigerants to carry out servicing or
repairs which involve the removal of covers and the opening of refrigeration
piping system.
Responsible disposal
At the end of its working life, do not throw this appliance out with your household rubbish. Electrical and electronic
products contain substances that can have a detrimental effect on the environment and human health if disposed of
inappropriately. Observe any local regulations regarding the disposal of electrical consumer goods and dispose of it
appropriately for recycling and recovery of the refrigerant and blowing agent. Contact your municipal authorities for
advice on recycling facilities in your area.
WARNING! This refrigeration appliance contains flammable refrigerants and insulation blowing gases, which must be
removed before disposal. Contact your municipal authorities for any codes or regulations concerning the disposal of
such materials. DANGER! Risk of child entrapment: When discarding this or another refrigerator, make sure to take
off the door and leave the shelves/racks/drawers in place so that children cannot easily climb in and get trapped
inside.
Electrical safety
• Voltage: Plug the appliance in a 220-240V, 50Hz, properly earthed power outlet, which must be in good
working order. Make sure your outlet voltage and circuit frequency correspond to the voltage stated on the appliance
rating label.
• Power connection: Do not use an adaptor; do not use an extension cord. Plug the power plug directly into a
separate power point that cannot easily be turned off accidentally, and that is easily accessible so you can switch it
off when required.
• Power cord: Do not kink or damage the power supply cord. Do not leave it exposed or dangling. Secure it
behind the appliance so no one steps on or places anything on the power supply cord or against it. A squashed or
damaged power plug may overheat and cause a fire.
