Light bulb

Refrigerating storage precautions

When loading or unloading the dairy bin, open and close same as illustrated below.		Allow warm foods to cool down before putting them into the refrigerator.
Make sure food is clean and any drips of water are wiped away before storing.		Wrap or cover food before storing.This will help prevent the loss of water contents, keep fruit and vegetables fresh, and avoid any unpleasant odors.
Sorting before storageSort the foods by category. Place foods to be used up soon at the front of the shelf so as to avoid food deterioration as a result of frequent and prolonged door openings.		Do not overfill your refrigerator.Leave enough space between foods stored in the refrigerator to keep good air-circulation for better refrigeration.

NOTE

Greasy foods may gradually cause corrosion of lining materials. Keep them away from the walls of the inner compartment. Keep the inner compartment clean and free of oil stains.

Useful Tips

Remove leaves of carrots and radishes before adding them to the refrigerator, to prevent loss of nutrients.

Foods which preserve their freshness at room temperature, such as onions, garlic and other roots, need not be stored in the refrigerator.

Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator compartment; this will help the cooling performance of the refrigerator compartment and save energy.

Fruits such as rice melon, Chinese quince, sweet melon, banana and pineapple ripen faster at lower temperatures, as as a result are not suitable for refrigerated storage unless you need them to ripen sooner.

Freezer Storage Compartment

The Freezer is intended for long-term food storage. The temperature in the freezer is very low, making it ideal for the storage of frozen food. Freeze food that you expect to keep stored in the freezer for a longer period of time; however, but the expiry date indicated on the packing should be observed.

Adjustable partition of the freezer drawer

A movable partition wall is provided in the freezer drawer to split the drawer into two parts. You may move the partition wall towards the right or left to meet your storage needs.

Freezer Storage Compartment

Ice Cream Bin

An ice cream bin is provided to hold ice cream or similar items to be stored at low temperatures. How to use the ice cream bin

● To take out the ice cream bin, take the handle and pull it towards you.
● To clean the ice cream bin, follow these instructions:

① Pull the ice cream bin out to the stop position.
② Lift the ice cream bin up (in the direction indicated by Arrow 1) and remove it from the refrigerator (in the direction indicated by Arrow 2).
③ Replace the ice cream bin alter cleaning in the reverse sequence.

Ice-making

Pour water into the icemaker to 3/4 of its capacity and then place it in the freezer.
● To obtain ice cubes, turn the knobs on the icemaker and the ice cubes will be collected in the ice storage bin.
● The ice cubes in the ice storage bin are ready for use.
- Whenever necessary, the semi-automatic icemaker can be taken out and the ice storage bin can be used to store more food.

Freezer Storage Precautions

Allow warm foods to cool down before putting them into the freezer.

Store food in small packages. This will make it easier to freeze the food fully and provide better quality when the food is thawed. Each package should not exceed 2.5kg.

Wrap food before storing. Make sure the wrappings are dry to prevent them from sticking to each other. The wrapping materials used should be odorless, airtight, leak-proof, nontoxic and environmentally-friendly, to prevent unpleasant odors or food deterioration.

The food packages should indicate information such as the food type contained, the date of storage and the expiry date.

Once thawed, food cannot be returned to the freezer unless it has been cooked. Thaw out frozen food according to actual needs.

Do not put too much fresh food in your freezer. The freezing capacity indicated in the Technical Data sheet must be observed.

Defrosting · Cleaning

Defrosting the Freezer Compartment

The defrost cycle of the freezer compartment is automatic and no manual operation is needed.

Cleaning

Clean the inner compartments to get rid of food residues and eliminate unpleasant odors.

● Unplug the appliance before cleaning.
- Use a cloth or sponge to wash the inner compartments with lukewarm water and a mild detergent.
● Dry the external surface with a dry cloth.

NOTE

① The appliance is heavy. Protect flooring when the appliance has to be moved for cleaning and servicing.
② Do not splash water on the appliance to protect the electric insulation.
③ To clean electric components such as switches and illuminators, make sure the appliance is not connected before cleaning with a dry cloth.
④ When cleaning, do not use a sharp or pointed brush, hard cleansers, organic solvents (e.g. gasoline, amyl acetate or acetone), boiled water, acid or alkali.
⑤ Do not touch the cold metal surface with wet hands.
⑥ When cleaning, do not use hot water to clean the glass shelves as these may brake from thermal shock and risk causing injury and property loss.
⑦ Clean the door seal from time to time.
⑧ Never use amyl acetate to remove unpleasant odors as this would be a fire hazard.
⑨ Only detergents intended for refrigerators should be used in cleaning.

Vacation

Power failure

Food can be stored for several hours in the event of power failure, even in summer.

• Do not add foods in the appliance and keep the doors closed as far as possible when there is a power failure.
• If a power failure is announced beforehand, make some extra ice cubes and hold them in a leak-proof container. Place the container on the top shelf in the refrigerator compartment.

NOTE

A temperature rise in the freezer due to power interruption or other faults may shorten the shelf life of products stored within and have an adverse effect on food quality.

Ceased operation

Please unplug the appliance and clean it as described above if the appliance is not to be used for a long period of time.

Keep the door open to prevent unpleasant odors caused by food residues.

NOTE

To ensure a long service life, do not stop the appliance frequently.

NOTE

After unplugging the appliance, wait at least 5 minutes before re-connecting it to the power supply.

Vacation

When leaving on vacation

If you are leaving for a long vacation, it's necessary to shut off the power, take out all of the food, and defrost and clean the appliance. Dry the appliance and leave the door open to prevent odors

WARNING

Discarded appliances must be disposed of professionally to avoid undesired impacts on the environment or other hazards.

When moving your refrigerator

● Unplug the appliance before transportation.
Take out foods from the appliance.
Fix the refrigerator shelves, the crisper and the freezer shelves in position with adhesive tapes.
- Keep the door closed during transportation with adhesive tapes.
- When moving the refrigerator, do not tilt it by more than 45 degrees to prevent the malfunction of the refrigeration system.

NOTE

Never place the refrigerator horizontally.

Troubleshooting Tips

When the refrigerator is first plugged in, the compressor operates for long periods or switches on and off frequently. In this case, it will take a longer time for the inner temperature to reach the desired value.	The refrigerator makes a humming noise when first plugged in or started up. This sound will fade away when the refrigerator is in stable operation.
The external surface of the refrigerator will be warm, especially when first plugged in, as a result of its anti-sweat design.	The compressor may produce a humming sound during operation and a clicking sound upon starting and stopping.
The flow of the refrigerant through the refrigeration coils may make a babbling noise. This noise is usually produced by the evaporator and compressor. When the compressor comes to a stop, the refrigerant backflow of will make a noise like running water, either from time to time or continuously.	Water dropping onto the defrost heater can cause a sizzling or buzzing sound during a defrost cycle. At the end of a defrost cycle, a slight popping sound may be heard, and the evaporator may make a gurgling noise like that of boiling water.

Troubleshooting Tips

The fan makes a spinning noise during operation.	Expansion and contraction of the evaporator and refrigerating coils due to temperature changes can cause a cracking or popping sound.
Moisture may form on the outside of the refrigerator and between the doors during periods of high humidity.	The rated power consumption specified in the Technical Data sheet is measured during a period of 24 hours under stable operation at an ambient temperature of 25°C, with the refrigerator and freezer maintained at 5°C and -18°C respectively. The actual power consumption depends on the amount of fresh food stored in the refrigerator.
