- Do not use extension cords or ungrounded adapters.
- Keep ventilation openings clear of obstruction.
- Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in this appliance.
- Unplug the appliance before cleaning or performing any maintenance.

3. Setup and Installation
Unpacking
Carefully remove all packaging materials, including tape and protective films. Dispose of packaging responsibly.
Placement
Place the refrigerator on a firm, level surface away from direct sunlight, heat sources (like stoves or radiators), and moisture. Ensure adequate air circulation around the appliance. Maintain a minimum clearance of 10 cm (4 inches) from the back and sides for proper ventilation.
Leveling
Adjust the leveling feet at the bottom of the refrigerator to ensure it is stable and level. This prevents vibrations and ensures proper door sealing.
Initial Power-On
After placement, wait at least 2-4 hours before plugging in the refrigerator. This allows the refrigerant to settle. Once plugged in, allow the appliance to run for several hours (e.g., 4-6 hours) to reach optimal operating temperature before storing food.

4. Operating Instructions
Temperature Control
The refrigerator features a 'Cool Air Control' dial, typically located inside the freezer compartment. This dial allows you to adjust the cooling intensity from 'Min Cooling' to 'Max Cooling'. For normal operation, set the dial to the 'Normal' position. Adjust as needed based on ambient temperature and food load.

6-in-1 Convertible Freezer Modes
Your Godrej refrigerator offers versatile freezer modes to adapt to your storage needs. Use the control dial to select the desired mode:
- Auto Mode: Standard operation, balancing cooling and energy efficiency.
- Low Load Mode: Ideal for times when the freezer has minimal items, saving energy.
- Ice Cream Mode: Optimizes temperature for perfect ice cream consistency.
- High Load Mode: Provides extra cooling power for a fully stocked freezer or quick freezing.
- Deep Freezer Mode: Maintains very low temperatures for long-term preservation of frozen goods.
- Cold Storage Mode: Converts the freezer compartment into a regular refrigerator section for additional fresh food storage.
Freshness Technologies
- Patented Cool Shower Technology: Integrated air vents above food items ensure 360-degree superior cooling, maintaining freshness.
- Honeycomb Crisper Technology: Designed to retain moisture and prevent spoilage, keeping fruits and vegetables fresh for extended periods (up to 30 days).
- Intelligent Ambient Weather Sensing Technology: The refrigerator automatically adjusts its cooling performance based on external weather conditions, ensuring consistent internal temperatures and energy efficiency.
- Multi Inverter Technology: Combines an inverter compressor and inverter fan motor for enhanced cooling performance and reduced energy consumption.

5. Maintenance and Care
Cleaning the Interior
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning. Use a soft cloth with a mild detergent solution (e.g., baking soda and water) to clean the interior surfaces, shelves, and drawers. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
Cleaning the Exterior
Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For stainless steel finishes, use a specialized stainless steel cleaner. Keep the door gaskets clean to ensure a tight seal.
Defrosting
This is a Frost-Free refrigerator, meaning it automatically defrosts the evaporator coil. There is no need for manual defrosting of the freezer compartment.
Power Saving Tips
- Avoid opening the doors frequently or for extended periods.
- Ensure food is cooled before placing it in the refrigerator.
- Keep the condenser coils at the back clean for efficient operation.
- Do not overfill the refrigerator, as this can obstruct airflow.
