• Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity required.
• Wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight.
• Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in temperature of the latter.
• Lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones; salt reduces the storage life of food.
• Water ices, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt.
• It is advisable to show the freezing-in date on each individual pack to enable you to remove it from the freezer compartment, as it can possibly cause the skin to be freeze-burnt;
• It is advisable to show the freezing-in date on each individual pack to enable you to keep track of the storage time.

Hints for storage of frozen food

To obtain the best performance from this appliance, you should:

• Make sure that the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer; - Be sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the food store to the freezer in the shortest possible time; - Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary; - Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly and cannot be refrozen; - Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the food manufacturer.

How to Use Dispenser

When using the refrigerator for the first time or when not using it for an extended period of time:

1. Please dispense several cups of water to flush the lines before use.
2. Discard the ice that the ice maker has produced for approximately one day.

The following sounds are generated during normal operation:

1. Sounds of ice cubes falling from ice maker to ice storage box.....issued around every two hours (click).
2. Sounds of motor running when taking ice/breaking ice...... (hoot)
3. Sounds of knife pushing out/breaking ice when taking it/breaking it.....(kerchikerchi)

To get cold water:

1. The dispensed water is cool, not icy cold. If you want colder water, dispense ice before dispensing water.
2. Frequent intake of water will increase the temperature of the water.

To get ice:

The cup/container must be close to the dispenser outlet to prevent ice from scattering.

How to remove the ice storage box:

1. Lift up the ice storage box with both hands.
2. Pull the ice storage box out slowly as shown in the figure.

When the ice dispenser does not operate properly:

1. If you do not dispense ice for a long time, ice may clump in the ice storage box; in this case, please remove the ice storage box and discard the ice inside.
2. If ice does not come out, some ice may get stuck in the chute. Please check and remove it. You should regularly check the chute and clear any obstacles.

Warning!

1. Do not put hands or any other things into the ice storage box, since the blade inside could hurt you.
2. Do not use fragile or thin glass cups to take ice, in case the cup breaks and hurts you.
3. Do not block the dispenser outlet with your hands or other things.
