3. Setup & Installation
3.1 Unpacking
Carefully remove all packaging materials. Check that all included components are present: 1 Refrigerator unit, User Manual, and Warranty Card. Inspect the refrigerator for any damage incurred during transit.
3.2 Placement
Place the refrigerator on a firm, level surface away from direct sunlight, heat sources (like stoves or radiators), and moisture. Ensure adequate ventilation around the appliance.

3.3 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.
3.4 First Use
After placement, wait for at least 2-4 hours before plugging in the refrigerator. This allows the refrigerant to settle. Once plugged in, let the refrigerator run empty for a few hours to reach its optimal operating temperature before storing food.
4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Temperature Control (Cool Balance Technology)
Your Godrej refrigerator is equipped with Cool Balance Technology, which ensures optimal and precise cooling in every part of the fridge. The temperature control dial is typically located inside the fresh food compartment. Adjust the dial to your desired cooling level. A lower number usually indicates warmer temperatures, while a higher number indicates colder temperatures. Refer to the markings on your specific model for precise settings.

4.2 Food Storage (Nano Shield Technology & Farm Freshness)
The Nano Shield Technology provides 95%+ food surface disinfection, helping to keep your food safer. Combined with Cool Balance Technology and moisture control, your fruits and vegetables can remain farm fresh for up to 24 days.
- Fresh Food Compartment: Store fruits, vegetables, dairy products, and cooked foods. Utilize the crisper drawer for optimal humidity control for produce.
- Freezer Compartment: Ideal for frozen foods, ice, and items requiring long-term preservation.
- Always cover food items to prevent odor transfer and maintain freshness.

5. Maintenance & Care
5.1 Cleaning
- Always unplug the refrigerator before cleaning.
- Clean the interior and exterior surfaces regularly with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Wipe down door gaskets to ensure a tight seal.
- Clean the condenser coils at the back of the refrigerator periodically (at least once a year) to maintain efficiency.
5.2 Defrosting
This is a Frost Free refrigerator, meaning manual defrosting is generally not required. The appliance automatically manages frost buildup. If excessive frost accumulates due to frequent door opening or high humidity, ensure the door seals are intact and the appliance is not overloaded.
5.3 Power Saving Tips
- Avoid opening the doors too frequently or for extended periods.
- Allow hot foods to cool down before placing them in the refrigerator.
- Ensure the door seals are clean and intact to prevent cold air leakage.
- Do not overfill the refrigerator, as this can obstruct airflow.
