• If there is a power failure, do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the failure lasts for less than 18 hours. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked and either eaten immediately or cooked and then re-frozen.

START Testing

1. Standing time

After the refrigerator is properly installed and well cleaned, do not switch it on immediately. Make sure to energize the refrigerator after more than 1 hour's standing, so as to ensure its normal operation.

2. Cleaning

Confirm the accessory parts inside the refrigerator and wipe the inside with a soft cloth.

3. Power-on

Insert the plug into the solid socket to start the compressor. After 1 hour, open the refrigerator door, if the temperature inside the refrigerator compartment drops obviously, it indicates the refrigeration system is working normally.

4. Storage of food

After the refrigerator runs for a period of time, the internal temperature of the refrigerator will be automatically controlled according to the user's temperature setting. After the refrigerator is fully cooled, put in foods, which usually need 2\~3 hours to be fully cooled. In summer, when the temperature is high, it takes more than 4 hours for the foods to be fully cooled (Try to open the refrigerator door as less as possible before the internal temperature cools down).

If the refrigerator is installed in the moisture place, make sure to check whether the ground wire and leakage circuit breaker are normal. If vibration noises are produced due to the refrigerator contacting the wall or if the wall gets blackened by air convection around the compressor, move the refrigerator away from the wall. Setting up the refrigerator may cause jamming noise or image chaos to the mobile phone, fixed-line telephone, radio receiver, television surrounding it, so try to keep the refrigerator as far away as possible in such case.

Instructions for food storage

Precautions for use

• The appliance might not operate consistently (there is possibility of defrosting or temperature becoming too warm in the frozen food compartment) when sited for an extended period of time below the cold limit of the temperature range for which the refrigerating appliance is designed
• The information of climate type of the appliance is provided on the rating plate.

- The in ternal temperature could be affected by such factors as the location of refrigerating appliance, ambient temperature, and frequency of door open, etc., and if appropriate, a warning that setting of any temperature control device might have to be varied to allow for these factors should be made. - Effervescent drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartment or the low-temperature compartment, and some products such as water ices should not be consumed too cold.

Food storage

In the fridge mode: It is suitable for the storage of such foods as need not to be frozen, the cooked food, beer, eggs, some condiments that need cold preservation, milk, fruit juice, etc. In the freezer mode, it is suitable for the storage of ice cream, frozen food and the foods to be preserved for a long time.

Fridge shelf: When removing the shelf, lift it up first, and then pull it out; and when installing the shelf, place it into position before putting it down.

Crisper box: Pull out the crisper box for access to food.

Cautions for food storage (in the fridge mode)

You'd better clean the foods and wipe them dry before storing them inside the refrigerator. Before foods are put in the refrigerator, it is advisable to seal them up, so as to prevent water evaporation to keep fresh fruits and vegetables on one hand, and prevent taint of odor on the other hand.

Do not put too many or too weight foods inside the refrigerator. Keep enough space between foods; if too close, the cold air flow

will be blocked, thus affecting the refrigeration effect. Do not store excessive or overweight foods, to avoid the shelf from being crushed. When storing the foods, keep a distance away from the inner wall; and do not place the water-rich foods too close to the fridge rear wall, lest they get frozen on the inner wall.

Categorized storage of foods: Foods should be stored by category, with the foods you eat every day placed in front of the shelf, so that the door open duration can be shortened and food spoilage due to expiration can be avoid.

In the freezer mode: These times vary depending on the type of food. The food that you freeze can be preserved from 1 to 12 (minimum at -18°C).

Food	Storage time
Bacon, casseroles, milk	1 month
Bread, ice cream, sausages, pies, prepared shellfish, oily fish	2 months
Non-oily fish, shellfish, pizza, scones and muffins	3 months
Ham, cakes, biscuits, beef and lamb chops, poultry pieces	4 months
Butter, vegetables (blanched), eggs whole and yolks, cooked crayfish, minced meat (raw), pork (raw)	6 months
Fruit (dry or in syrup), egg whites, beef (raw), whole chicken, lamb (raw), fruit cakes	12 months

In the fridge mode: 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.

Food	Recommended storage temperature and time
Butter, cheese	Set appliance at +4°C, using it within 5 days
Eggs	Set appliance at +4°C, using it within 5 days
Fruit, vegetables, salad	Set appliance at +4°C, using it within 5 days
Meat, sausage, cheese, milk	Set appliance at +4°C, using it within 2 days
Dairy products, canned food, cans	Set appliance at +4°C, using it within 7 days
Drinks, bottles, tubes	Set appliance at +4°C, using it within 7 days

Energy-saving tips: Allow the hot food cool down to the room temperature before putting it in the refrigerator. Put the frozen food in the fresh food compartment to thaw, using the low temperature of the frozen food to cool the fresh food, thus saving energy.

Storage of fruits and vegetables

In the case of refrigerating appliances with chill compartment, a statement to the effect that some types of fresh vegetables and fruits are sensitive to cold and therefore are not suitable for storage in this kind of compartment should be made.

In the freezer mode

The freezer temperature is controlled below -18^ , and it is advisable to store the food for long-term preservation in the freezer compartment, but the storage duration indicated on the food packaging should be adhered to.

The freezer drawers are used to store food that needs to be frozen. Fish and meat of large block size should be cut into small pieces and packed into fresh-keeping bags before they are evenly distributed inside the freezer drawers.

Fast freezing

1. Refer to the description about fast freezing function in the "Function" section.
2. Compared with the normal freezing, fast freezing enables food to pass through the maximum ice crystal formation zone at the fastest speed. Fast freezing can freeze the food water content into fine ice crystals, without damaging the cell membrane, so cell juice will not be lost when thawing, and the original freshness and nutrition of food can be maintained.
3. The fast-freezing function is designed to preserve nutrition of the frozen food, with the food thoroughly frozen in the shortest time. Fast freezing consumes more energy than the normal freezing does.
4. Allow the hot foods to cool down to the room temperature before putting them in the freezer compartment.
5. Do not put a glass container with liquid or the canned liquid that is sealed in the freezer compartment, so as to avoid burst due to volume expansion after the liquid gets frozen up.
6. Divide the food into appropriately small portions
7. You 'd better pack the food up before freezing it, and the packing bag used should be dry, in case the packing bags are frozen together. Foods should be packed or covered by such suitable materials as are firm, tasteless, impervious to air and water, non-toxic and pollution-free, to avoid cross-contamination and transfer of odor.

Tips for shopping the frozen foods

1. When you are buying frozen food, look at the Storage Guidelines on the packaging. You will be able to store each item of frozen food for the period shown against the star rating. This is usually the period stated as "Best to use them before×", found on the front of the packaging.
2. Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop where you buy the frozen foods.
3. Make sure the frozen food package is in perfect condition.
4. Always buy frozen products last on your shopping trip or visit to the supermarket.
5. Try to keep frozen food together whilst shopping and on the journey home, as this will help to keep the food cooler.
6. Don't buy frozen food unless you can freeze it straight away. Special insulated bags can be bought from most supermarkets and hardware shops. These keep the frozen foods cold longer.
7. For some foods, thawing before cooking is unnecessary. Vegetables and pasta can be added directly to boiling water or steam cooked. Frozen sauces and soups can be put into a saucepan and heated gently until thawed.
8. Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. When foods are frozen in small quantities, it will take less than for them to freeze up and thaw.
9. Estimate the amount of foods to be frozen up. When freezing large amounts of fresh food, adjust the temperature control knob to the low mode, with the freezer temperature lowered. So, foods can be frozen up in fast manner, with the food freshness well kept.

Energy-saving tips

• Install the fridge or freezer in a cool place out of direct sunlight and away from cookers, heaters, dishwashers or any hot air emitting items.
- Do not set the fridge and freezer temperatures lower than necessary. Set the internal temperature within the correct range e.g. adjust the thermostat at middle position for 4^ in the fridge compartment and -18^ in the freezer respectively.
- Let pre-cooked foods cool down before placing them in the fridge or freezer. This will prevent the internal temperature of the fridge from rising.
- Keep your fridge full, but not over crowded, this helps reduce «cold» air loss. Meanwhile, avoid overloading the fridge or freezer. Try to leave about 20% free space for air circulation.
- To prevent cold air escaping, limit the frequency of opening door. When retuning from shopping, sort foods to be kept in your fridge before opening the door. Only open the door to put food in or take it out.
- Make sure the door seal is clean and in good condition. It should hold a piece of paper tightly in place when shut.
- Defr ost regularly or when ice is more than 5mm thick. Thick ice covering the inner sides significantly increases energy use.
- The combination of the drawers, baskets and shelves shown in the device description is optimal for efficient energy savings. Changing the combination proposition could alter the efficiency.
