Preparations prior to use

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 foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading the appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.

Be sure to wrap foods properly, 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.

Non-failures

Phenomenon: Fever or hot on two sides and spacing part surface between refrigerating chamber and freezing chamber.

Cause: Refrigerator pipes (condenser, anti-fog pipes) are on two sides and front part of refrigerator for heat dissipation and to prevent from condensation.

Phenomenon:The door is too tight and not easy to open

Cause: Reopening of the door immediately after closing it is hard because hot air enters the refrigerator and contracts to produce pressure difference. It is easy to open the door after a while.

Phenomenon: There is water ripple in refrigerator

Cause: When starting or stopping the compressor, the refrigerant will make such sound; Water produced after defrosting will also make such sound.

Phenomenon: There is "Click" sound or tick sound in refrigerator

Cause: Shrinkage and swelling of case will make such sound; When the case is cold or the door is opened, this sound will occur; Phenomenon: There is hum sound in refrigerator

Cause: Running of compressor will make such sound (if the refrigerator is not leveled, this sound will be louder)

Phenomenon: There is condensation or frosting freezing chamber door surface or food surface

Cause: Temperature or humidity around the refrigerator is high; The door is opened for too long time; The foods with too much water are not sealed or tightly wrapped

Phenomenon: There is condensation on the built-in light surface

Cause: Light will produce heat after being lit, and the door is opened for too long time. So there is temperature difference, and thus the light case will have condensation.

Phenomenon: There is condensation and water mist on body

Cause: Humidity around refrigerator is high, and the moisture in the air will gather in the case to form condensation
