CSAFETY INSTRUCTIONS TO PREVENT RISK OF FIRE
BSAFETY OF CHILDREN AND VULNERABLE PERSONS
1. SAFETY INFORMATION
• It is customer’s responsibility to use the product with care and precautions as this manual does
not cover all the possible situation that may arise.
• This appliance is intended solely for household with the sole purpose of storing food and drinks
at low temperature.
• Don’t connect a fridge to the electricity supply until all packaging has been removed.
• Always ensure that the area you are placing the refrigerator is free of flammable materials such
as EPS, gas cylinder, and make sure that the
ventilation openings provided in the appliance are clear of obstructions.
• Make sure you don’t trap the mains cable beneath the fridge when putting it in position.
• After installation, the Plug of the refrigerator must be accessible to disconnect the appliance in
• Plug the appliance into a grounding socket: the appliance must be correctly connected to an
approved earthing system.
• Never use a loose power plug. It can cause an electric shock or catch fire due to an electrical
short circuit.
• Do not use single/multi adapters or extension cords.
• In order to avoid a hazard, installation and maintenance, including Power cable replacement,
must be carried out by a qualified technician, in compliance with the manufacturer’s
instructions and the local safety regulations in force. Do not repair or replace any part of the
appliance unless specifically stated in the user manual.
• Do not use a heater or any sharp edge equipment to defrost ice build up inside the freezer.
• In case of gas leakage, ventilate the room instead of unplugging the refrigerator:
case of emergency situations such as gas leakage, fire etc.
• Never block the interior or exterior ventilation openings of the refrigerator. Allow 100mm or more
clearance over wall, side and rear plate of the refrigerator for air circulation
• Indoor refrigerators should not be stored outside as they are not designed for safe operation in
an outdoor environment.
• Don’t place a refrigerator source such as cookers, radiators, OTG or in direct sunlight, as this
will affect performance of the refrigerator.
• This manual covers various models and in case of any queries, please contact IFB service
centre.
WARNING REGARDING THE REFRIGERANT
• This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), which is flammable.
• In case of transportation or installation of the appliance, meticulous care is required to prevent
any damage to the cooling system of the refrigerator. A gas leak is not hazardous
to the environment, but it could cause eye injury or fire.
• In case of a gas leak, ventilate the room thoroughly, disconnect the appliance from the power
mains, and call a service technician.
• To prevent the creation of flammable gas- air mixture from the leak in the refrigerating circuit,
should be in a room of more than 1m³ per 8g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance.
The amount of refrigerant is shown on the identification plate inside the appliance.
• This appliance is not intended to use by children without supervision and adequate
knowledge.
• This appliance can be used by children aged 8+ years and persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have
been given instructions concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the
hazards involved.
• To avoid the risk of children becoming trapped and suffocating, do not allow them to play or
hide inside the appliance.
• Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
• WARNING: Improper use can cause physical damage and personal injury.
Explosion or fire may occur.
• Never install the refrigerator at a humid place or the place where water splashes easily: Short
circuit or fire may occur if you do it.
• If there is a burning smell from the refrigerator, unplug it immediately. It is very dangerous to
leave the refrigerator running abnormally.
• Do not place heavy things on top or in close vicinity of the refrigerator ie. Liquid storage bins,
burning candles, plastic/cloth refrigerator cover as it can cause fire due to short circuit.
• Do not plug or unplug the power cord with wet hands, as there is risk of electric shock.
• Unplug and clean the plug with dry cloth if found dirty: Dusty and dirty plug may cause fire.
• Clean behind your refrigerator regularly to keep lint and dust free.
• Never use any flammable aerosol spray or any flammable substances near the appliance.

Frost formation happens inside the freezer due to the condensation of surrounding moist air on the cold surfaces of freezer. Accumulation of excess frost acts
as an insulator thus reducing the cooling efficiency of refrigerator. Before defrosting, it is necessary to remove all the stored food items from the freezer as well
as the chiller which is placed below the freezer area. Frost thickness should not exceed red color defrost indicator cap in freezer. Push the button given on the
center of the temperature control knob to initiate defrosting. Once initiated the frost will melt and changes into water which will then flow through designed path
and gets collected on the defrost water tray provided at the back of refrigerator. Refrigerator will automatically start after completing defrosting process. It is
advisable to perform defrosting after every three days. During hot & humid conditions you may increase the frequency of defrosting to reduce the frost content
in freezer. Over accumulation of frost can lead to spillage of water from defrost water tray to ground/floor after defrosting. Strictly avoid the usage of any form of
sharp edged tools such as knife, screw driver etc to scrape of frost present in the freezer as it can damage the evaporator circuit and hence the cooling
process.
