• The operating voltage for your freezer is 220-

240 V at 50Hz.

• The plug must be accessible after installation.

and connected load) matches that of the

mains electricity supply. If in doubt, consult a

qualified electrician.

• Insert the plug into a socket with an efficient

ground connection. If the socket has no

ground contact or the plug does not match,

we recommend you consult a qualified

electrician for assistance.

properly installed fused socket. The power

supply (AC) and voltage at the operating point
