Electrical Requirements
Before you insert the plug into the wall socket make sure that the voltage and the frequency is shown on the rating plate inside the appliance corresponds to your electricity supply.
The rating label is on the left-hand side of the inner liner.
We recommend that this appliance be connected to the mains supply via a suitable switched and fused socket. The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.
Should the mains lead of the appliance become damaged or should it need replacing at any time, it must be replaced by a special purpose made mains lead which can only be obtained from a BLOMBERG Authorised  Service Agent.

Warning! This Appliance Must Be Earthed
If the fitted molded plug is not suitable for your socket, then the plug should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted. Destroy the old plug which is cut off as a plug with ared cord could cause a shock hazard if inserted into a socket elsewhere in the house.
The molded plug on this appliance incorporates a 13 A fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced an ASTABEAB approved BS 1362 fuse of the same rating must be used. Do not forget to refit the fuse cover. In the event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been fitted. The Colour of the replacement fuse cover must be the same color as that visible on the pin face of the plug. Fuse overs are available from any good electrical store.
Important! Fitting A Different Plug
As the colors of the wires in  the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the colored markings identifying the terminals in your plug proceed as follows: (See
diagram).

1.  Connect the green-yellow or green (Earth) wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’ or with the symbol or colored green and yellow or green.
   

2.  Connect the blue (Neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or colored black.

3. Connect the brown (Live) wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘L’ or colored red.

4.  With alternative plugs a 13 A fuse must be fitted either in the plug or adaptor or in the main fuse box. If in doubt contact a qualified electrician.

Energy Saving Tips

1. Ensure your appliance is installed in a well-ventilated area.
2.  Ensure the time between buying chilled/frozen food and placing them in your appliance s kept at a minimum, particularly in summer. We recommend you use a cool bag or a special carrier bag to carry perishable food.
3.  Do not leave the door (s) of your appliance open longer than necessary and ensure they are closed properly after each opening.
4. Defrost frozen food in the fridge, so that frozen food acts as an ice pack to assist cooling in the fridge.
