- Spare enough space for convenient opening of the doors and drawers or statement by the distributor.

2.6 Energy saving tips

• The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
• Let hot food cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading the appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Food that freezes too slow may lose quality or spoil.
• Properly wrap food and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the appliance.
• Appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the appliance less efficient.
• Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.

4. Maintenance and care of the appliance

4.1 Overall cleaning

• Dust behind the refrigerator and on the floor must be cleaned to improve the cooling effect and energy saving.
• Regularly check the door gasket to make sure there is no debris. Clean the door gasket with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or diluted detergent.
• The interior of the refrigerator should be cleaned regularly to avoid odor.
• Turn the power off before cleaning the interior. Remove all food, drinks, shelves, drawers, etc.
• To clean the interior of the refrigerator, use a soft cloth or sponge with two tablespoons of baking soda and a quart of warm water. Then, rinse with water and wipe clean. After cleaning, open the door and let it dry naturally before turning on the power.
• For areas that are difficult to clean in the refrigerator (such as narrow spaces, gaps, or corners), it is recommended to wipe them regularly with a soft rag, soft brush, etc. and when necessary, combined with some auxiliary tools (such as thin sticks) to ensure no contaminants or bacteria accumulated in these areas.
• Do not use soap, detergent, scrub powder, spray cleaner, etc., as these may cause odors in the interior of the refrigerator or contaminate food.
• Clean the bottle frame, shelves and drawers with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or diluted detergent. Dry with a soft cloth or dry naturally.
• Wipe the refrigerator's outer surface with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water, detergent, etc., and then wipe dry.

- Do not use hard brushes, clean steel balls, wire brushes, abrasives (such as toothpastes), organic solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, banana oil, etc.), boiling water, acid or alkaline items, which may damage the fridge surface and interior. Boiling water and organic solvents such as benzene may deform or damage plastic parts.

- Do not rinse directly with water or other liquids during cleaning to avoid short circuits or affect electrical insulation after immersion.

Please unplug the refrigerator for defrost and cleaning.

4.3 Defrosting

- The refrigerator is made based on the air-cooling principle and thus has automatic defrosting function. Frost formed due to change of season or temperature may also be manually removed by disconnection of the appliance from power supply or by wiping with a dry towel.

4.4 Out of operation

• Power failure: In case of power failure, even in the summer, food inside the appliance can be kept for several hours. During the power failure, the amount of time the door opens should be reduced and no more fresh food should be put into the appliance.
• Long-time nonuse: The appliance should be unplugged and then cleaned; then the doors are left open to prevent odor.
• Moving: Before the refrigerator is moved, take all objects from the inside, out, fix the glass partitions, vegetable holder, freezing chamber drawers etc. with tape, and tighten the leveling feet the doors and fix them with tape. During moving, the appliance should not be laid upside down, horizontally, or be vibrated. The inclination during movement should be no more than 45^ .

The appliance should run continuously once it is started. Generally, the operation of the appliance should not be interrupted; otherwise, the service life may be impaired.

5 Troubleshooting

5.1 You may try to solve the following simple problems by yourself. If the problems cannot be solved, contact the after-sales department.

Failed operation	-Check whether the appliance is connected to power or whether the plug is in well contact-Check whether the voltage is too low-Check whether there is a power failure or partial circuits have tripped
Odor	-Odorous food should be tightly wrapped-Check whether there is any rotten food-Clean the inside of the refrigerator
Long-time operation of the compressor	-Long operation of the refrigerator is normal in summer when the ambient temperature is high-It is not recommended having too much food in the appliance at the same time-Food should be cool before being put into the appliance-The doors are opened too frequently
Light fails to light	-Check whether the refrigerator is connected to power supply and whether the illuminating light is damaged-Have the light replaced by a specialist
Doors cannot be properly closed	-The door is stuck by food packages-The refrigerator is tilted
Loud noise	-Check whether the floor is level and whether the refrigerator is placed stably-Check whether accessories are placed at proper locations
Door seal fails to be tight	-Remove foreign matters on the door seal-Heat the door seal and then cool it for restoration (or blow it with an electrical drier or use a hot towel for heating)
Water pan overflows	There is too much food in the chamber or food stored contains too much water, resulting in heavy defrosting.-The doors are not closed properly, resulting in frosting due to entry of air and increased water due to defrosting.
Hot housing	-Heat dissipation of the built-in condenser via the housing, which is normal-When housing becomes hot due to high ambient temperature and of storing too much food, provide sound ventilation to facilitate heat dissipation.
Surface condensation	Condensation on the exterior surface and door seals of the refrigerator is normal when the ambient humidity is too high. Just wipe the condensate with a clean towel.
Abnormal noise	Buzz: The compressor may produce buzzes during operation, and the buzzes are loud particularly upon start or stop. This is normal.Creak: Refrigerant flowing inside of the appliance may produce creak, which is normal.
