OPERATIONS

DEFROSTING

• Defrosting takes place automatically.
- The defrosted water flows down to the evaporating tray which is located in the lower back side of the refrigerator and is evaporated automatically.

DEODORIZER (OPTIONAL)

- Unpleasant odor of food in fresh food compartment is deodorized with no harm to the user and the food.

How to use

• As Deodorizer is located in cooling air inlet for circulating air in fresh food compartment, there is no need for any handling.
• Do not prick the cooling air inlet with a sharp tip because Deodorizer may get damaged.
• When storing food with strong odor, wrap it or store it in a container with a lid because odor may be passed on to other foods.

Re-Using of Deodorizer

• Deodorizer can be revived and re-used.
• Separate the Deodorizer from the refrigerator
• Use hair drier to remove moisture or malodor and oxidize under sunlight to decompose malodor by ultraviolet.

SUGGESTIONS ON FOOD STORAGE

STORING FOOD

• Store fresh food in the refrigerator compartment. How food is frozen and thawed is an important factor in maintaining its freshness and flavor.
• Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as bananas, pineapples, and melons.
• Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot food in the refrigerator could spoil other food, and lead to higher electric bills!
• When storing the food, cover it with vinyl wrap or store in a container with lid. This prevents moisture from evaporating and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients. This will also prevent transfer of taste and smell from one food to other.
• Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circulation of chilled air keeps refrigerator temperatures even.
• Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the refrigerator, and cause temperatures to rise.

FREEZER COMPARTMENT

• Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen.
• Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrition.
• When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on the freezer shelf, not in the door rack.
• Loading for Freezing - It is recommended to load newly introduced foods on the following position for freezing:

Newly Introduced Food

- Freezer Door Basket, marked ** is -12^ compartment, that is suitable for short term storage of frozen food (optional).

REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

• Avoid placing moist food on deep interior refrigerator shelves, it could freeze by direct contact with chilled air. To avoid this it is better to store food in the covered container.
• It is desirable to store moist food (especially vegetable and fruit) in the vegetable storage compartment. If it is necessary to store on a shelf of the refrigerator, put it close to the door away from the back wall of the refrigerator to avoid being frozen by direct contact with

Refrigerator Shelf Vegetable Drawer

• Always clean food prior to refrigeration. Vegetables and fruits should be washed and wiped, and packed food should be wiped clean, to prevent adjacent food from spoiling.

- When storing eggs in their storage rack, ensure that they are fresh, and always store them in a upright position, which keeps them fresh for longer time.

CLEANING

It is important that your refrigerator is kept clean to prevent undesirable odors. Spilled food should be wiped immediately, since it may acidify and stain plastic surfaces if allowed to settle.

Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, coarse abrasive cleaners or strong alkaline solutions on any surface.

Before you clean, remember that damp objects will stick or adhere to extremely cold surfaces. Do not touch frozen surfaces with wet or damp hands.

EXTERIOR - Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap or dish washable solution to clean the durable finish of your refrigerator. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and then dry.

INTERIOR - Regular cleaning of the interior and interior parts is recommended. Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap or dish washable solution to clean the durable finish of your refrigerator. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and then dry.

INTERIOR PARTS - Wash compartment shelves, door racks, storage trays and magnetic door seals etc. Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap or dish washable solution to clean the durable finish of your refrigerator. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and then dry.

WARNING

Always remove power cord from the wall outlet prior to cleaning. Wipe excess moisture with a sponge or cloth to prevent water or liquid from getting into any electrical part and causing electric shock. Do not use flammable or toxic cleaning liquids.

• Caution for Cleaning - Not to use : Surface active agent, Car wax, Anti-corrosive, All sorts of oil, Gasoline, Acids, Wax.
• Mild detergents, dish washable solutions and soapy water can be used
• Careless usage can lead to colour change.

GENERAL INFORMATION

VACATION TIME

During average length vacations, you will probably find it best to leave the refrigerator in operation. Place freezable items in freezer for longer life. When you plan to be away for an extended period, remove all food, disconnect the power cord, clean the interior thoroughly, and leave each door OPEN to prevent odor formation.

POWER FAILURE

Most power failures are corrected in an hour or two and will not affect your refrigerator temperatures. However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off. During power failures of longer duration, place a block of dry ice on top of your frozen packages.

IF YOU MOVE

Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside the refrigerator.

To avoid damaging the leveling screw(s), turn them all the way into the base.

ANTI-CONDENSATION PIPE

The outside wall of the refrigerator cabinet may sometimes get warm, especially just after installation.

Don't be alarmed.

This is due to the anti-condensation pipe, which pumps hot refrigerant to prevent "sweating" on the outer cabinet wall.

Caution

Electrical Shock Hazard

Before replacing a burned-out light bulb, either unplug the refrigerator or turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse box.

NOTE : Moving the control to OFF position does not remove power from the light circuit.

IMPORTANT WARNINGS

DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD

If possible, connect the refrigerator to its own individual electrical outlet to prevent it and other appliances or household lights from causing an overload that could cause a power outage.

ACCESSIBILITY OF SUPPLY PLUG

The refrigerator-freezer should in such a position that the supply plug is accessible for quick disconnection when accident happens.

SUPPLY CORD REPLACEMENT
