Adjust the feet and clear the outside and inside of the refrigerator with warm cloth. Do not start the refrigerator immediately after vertical placement. Only start it after around 4 hours standing to ensure its proper operation. To prevent damage to the power cord and any consequence incidents, the power cord should be not covered by the refrigerator or other objects. Before switching on the refrigerator, please check the voltage range of refrigerator carefully if the same as that of the power supply. When the refrigerator is first installed, allow it stabilize at normal operating temperatures for 2-3 hours prior to filling it with fresh or frozen foods. If operation is interrupted, wait for 5 minutes before restarting. 30cm 50-75mm 30cm -39-TEMPERATURE CONTROL The fridge is controlled with a temperature control knob located inside it, towards the upper right‐hand corner. Adjust the control knob as desired to suit your individual preference. 0=off setting 1=cold setting 7=coldest setting

• In the off position (0) the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched off), but power supply is not interrupted.

• The running time and temperature are affected by where the fridge is located, how often the door is opened and the temperature of the room the fridge is located in. Clean the parts of the refrigerator with lukewarm water on a soft cloth or with a neutral detergent and with clear water, then wipe them dry. Notes: Electric parts of the refrigerator can only be wiped by dry cloth. Turn the thermostat knob on the "3" position and turn on electricity. The compressor begins to work. Close the door and wait 30 minutes. If the temperature in the freezer compartment decreased obviously, it shows that the refrigerator system works well. When the refrigerator operates for a period of time, the temperature controller will automatically set the temperature on conditions that the door is not too often opened. If the above steps are successful, the trial operations are finished. The refrigerator works normally. TEST -40-· When you use the appliance for the first time or after defrosting, adjust the control knob to the coldest setting for at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust to the middle setting. Set the thermostat knob to "3-4"position for a normal use. Note: the temperature will impact the storage time of food. Set the temperature as necessary. Warmer will accelerate food spoilage and colder will frozen food bad. Thus food to be wasted.

Your appliance has the accessories as the “Structure illustration” showed in general, with this part instruction you can have the right way to storage your food. Note: Food is not allowed to touch directly all surface inside the appliance, and should be stored in proper containers. Storing food in the refrigerator compartment The fridge freezer compartment helps to extend the storage times of fresh perishable foods. Fresh food care for best results:

• Store foods that are very fresh and of good quality.

• Ensure that food is well wrapped or covered before it is stored. This will prevent food from dehydrating, deteriorating in colour or losing taste and will help maintain freshness. It will also prevent odour transfer. Vegetables and fruit need not be wrapped if they are stored in the vegetable container of the fridge compartment.

• Make sure that strong smelling foods are wrapped or covered and stored away from foods such as butter, milk and cream which can be tainted by strong odours. The glass shelves and crisper can be removed to store food if needed. -41-· Cool hot foods down before placing them in the fridge compartment. Dairy foods and eggs

• Most pre-packed dairy foods have a recommended 'use by /best before/best by/ date stamped on them. Store them in the fridge compartment and use within the recommended time.

• Butter can become tainted by strong smelling foods so it is best stored in a sealed container.

• Eggs should be stored in the fridge compartment. Red meat

• Place fresh red meat on a plate and loosely cover with plastic wrap or foil.

• Store cooked and raw meat on separate plates. This will prevent any juice lost from the raw meat from contaminating the cooked product. Fish and seafood

• Until required, refrigerate on a plate loosely covered with plastic wrap, waxed paper or foil.

• Whole fish should be rinsed in cold water to remove loose scales and dirt and then patted dry with paper towels. Place whole fish or fillets in a sealed plastic bag.

• Keep shellfish chilled at all times. Use within 1-2 days. Cooked food

• These should be stored in suitable covered containers so that the food will not dry out.

• Keep for only 1-2 days. Vegetable container

-48-COLDEST ZONE IN THE REFRIGERATOR

This symbol indicates the location of the coldest zone of the refrigerator, The area is bounded below by the glass crisper, and above by the symbol or the rack positioned at the same height. To ensure the temperature in this area, do not change the positioning of the shelf. In forced air refrigerators (equipped with a fan or No Frost models), the symbol of the coldest zone is not represented because the temperature inside is homogeneous. Temperature indicator setting To help you set your refrigerator well, it is equipped with a temperature indicator that will monitor the average temperature in the coldest zone.

WARNING: This indicator is intended to work only with your

refrigerator, do not use it in another refrigerator (in fact, the coldest zone is not the same), or for any other use. Checking the temperature in the coldest zone With the temperature indicator, you can check regularly that the temperature of the coldest zone is correct. Indeed, the internal temperature of the refrigerator depends on several factors such as the ambient temperature of the room, the amount of food stored and the frequency of door opening. Take these factors into consideration when setting the device. When the indicator shows « OK », this means that your thermostat is well adjusted and the internal temperature correct.

49-OK If the indicator of temperature turns WHITE, this means that the temperature is too high; in this case, increase the refrigerator temperature control setting and wait for 12 hours before performing a new visual inspection of the indicator. When fresh food has been introduced or the door has been left open, it is possible for the indicator of temperature to turn WHITE after a while.
