• The default setting of the temperature control dial for the refrigerator compartment is '4' - The default setting of the temperature control dial for freezer is '4' or '5'
- This refrigerator has a temperature sensor in the refrigerator compartment. It will start and stop the compressor automatically as needed.
SELF TEST
- Your refrigerator contains a built in diagnostic capability. If it develops a malfunction in certain areas, it will display an error code to assist the repair technician. While an error code is displayed, other control and display functions will not operate.
- If an error code is displayed, contact a service center. Do not disconnect the power cord from the outlet.
CONTROLS FOR FREEZER COMPARTMENT
• The higher number on control setting is, the lower the temperature of the freezer compartment becomes.
- Since the temperature of the refrigerator and freezer compartments is controlled with a fixed amount
of cooled air, the refrigerator compartment will be warmer if the freezer compartment becomes colder
- When the freezer compartment is not cold enough in winter, adjust the control for the freezer to High (5 / 6 / 7 / · / ·).
* For achieving temperature in Freezing, Energy and Storage Test, Freezer control may be required to set at -/6 or -/7.

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 a lid. This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients.
- 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.
- Freezer Door Basket, marked ** is -12°C 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
• 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.
Vegetable Drawer
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
ANTI-CONDENSATION PIPE
The outside wall of the refrigerator cabinet may sometimes get warm, especially just after installation. Anti-Condensation
Don't be alarmed. This is due to the anti-condensation pipe, which pumps hot refrigerant to prevent "sweating" on the outer cabinet wall.
Anti-Condensation
Caution
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
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
ABOUT GROUNDING (EARTHING)
In the event of an electric short circuit, grounding (earthing) reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. In order to prevent possible electric shock, this appliance must be grounded.
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in an electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if you have doubts on whether the appliance is properly grounded.
DO NOT MODIFY OR EXTEND THE POWER CORD LENGTH.
It will cause electric shock or fire.
An empty refrigerator can be a dangerous attraction to children. Remove either gaskets, latches, lids or the entire door from your unused appliance, or take some other action to make it harmless.
This appliance must be grounded (earthed).
DON'T WAIT! DO IT NOW!
Do not store inflammable materials, explosives or chemicals in the refrigerator.
