Refrigerator compartment

Storing foods

Store fresh food in the refrigerator compartment. How food is frozen and thawed is an important factor in maintaining its freshness and flavor.
Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as bananas, and melons.
- Allow hot food to cool prior to storing, placing hot food in the refrigerator could spoil other food, and lead to higher energy consumption.
When storing the food, cover it with vinyl wrap or store in a container with a lid. This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients.
Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circulation of chilled air keeps refrigerator temperatures even.
Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the refrigerator, and cause temperatures to rise.
Never keep too much food in door rack because they may push against by inner racks so that the door cannot be fully closed.

n Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen.
Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrient.
When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on the freezer shelf, not in the door rack.

Avoid placing moist food in top refrigerator shelves, it could freeze from direct contact with chilled air.
Always clean food prior to refrigeration. Vegetables and fruits should be washed and wiped, and packed food should be wiped, to prevent adjacent food from spoiling.
- When storing eggs in their storage rack or box, ensure that they are fresh, and always store them in an upright position, which keeps them fresh longer.

NOTE

- If you keep the refrigerator in a hot and humid place, frequent opening of the door or storing a lot of vegetables in it may cause dew to form which has no effect on its performance. Remove the dew with dust cloth free from care.

How to dismantle parts

NOTE

- Dismantling is done in the reverse sequence of assembly. Be sure to unplug the power plug before dismantling and assembly. Never apply severe force to dismantle parts. Parts may be damaged.

Vacation time

General information

During average length vacations, you will probably find it best to leave the refrigerator in operation. Place freezable items in freezer for longer life.

When you plan not to operate, remove all food, disconnect the power cord, clean the interior thoroughly, and leave each door OPEN to prevent odor formation.

Power failure

Most power failures that are corrected in an hour or two will not affect your refrigerator temperatures.

However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off.

If you move

Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside the refrigerator.

To avoid damaging the height adjusting screws, turn them all the way into the base.

Anti condensation pipe

The outside wall of the refrigerator cabinet may sometimes get warm, especially just after installation.

Don't be alarmed. This is due to the anti-condensation pipe, which pumps hot refrigerator to prevent "sweating" on the outer cabinet wall.

Cleaning

It is important that your refrigerator be kept clean to prevent undesirable odors. Spilled food should be wiped up immediately, since it may acidify and stain plastic surfaces if allowed to settle.

Exterior

Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap or detergent to clean the durable finish of your refrigerator.

Wipe with a clean damp cloth and then dry.

Interior

Regular cleaning is recommended. Wash all compartments a baking soda solution or a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry.

After cleaning

Please verify that the power cord is not damaged, power plug is not overheated, or power plug is well inserted into the power consent.

Warning

Always remove power cord from the wall outlet prior to cleaning in the vicinity of electrical parts (lamps, switches, controls, etc.).

Wipe up excess moisture with a sponge or cloth to prevent water or liquid from getting into any electrical part and causing an electric shock.

Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, coarse abrasive cleaners, strong alkaline solutions, flammable or toxic cleaning liquids on any surface.

Do not touch frozen surfaces with wet or damp hands, because damp object will stick or adhere to extremely cold surfaces.
