節省能源的使用方法
Tips for using the refrigerator wisely for energy savings
- 減少冰箱門的開閉,切勿時間過長
開閉次數多,冷氣向外流失,保冷效果差。
- 切勿塞滿過多的食物
一旦塞滿過多的食物,冷氣的流通循環不良,不僅無法讓冰箱內均一冷卻,而且還會消耗電力。存放食品時請適度地保留間隙。
- 將熱的食物放冷之後再放入冰箱
將熱的食物放入冰箱時,冰箱內部的溫度升高,周邊食物的溫度也隨之升高。
- 冰箱周邊應保留適當的間隙
若周邊無保留間隙時,冰箱無法散熱,而導致電力的浪費。
- 更換受損的冰箱門墊圈
因受損後所產生的間隙可讓冷氣流失,而導致電力的浪費。將名片等夾在其間,若因無法夾緊而滑落,請更換冰箱門的墊圈。
- Open or close a door less frequently and quickly.
Frequent opening and closing leads to waste of energy.
- Do not overfill the refrigerator.
Overfilling the refrigerator prevents a smooth circulation of cool air, precluding even cooling throughout the refrigerator and consuming unnecessary power. Place food at appropriate intervals.
- Do not place hot food in the refrigerator.
Placing hot food raises the temperature in the refrigerator, which, in turn, raises the temperature of surrounding food.
- Provide an appropriate gap around the refrigerator.
Installing the refrigerator with little clearance between the refrigerator and the surrounding objects prevents the release of heat and thus leads to the waste of power.
- Replace a damaged door gasket.
Cool air leaks through a damaged gasket, which leads to the waste of power. If a name card inserted between the gasket and the refrigerator slides down, the gasket needs replacing.

REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT


Request
- Food containing a lot of water or canned beverage placed in front of the cold air blowout port may be frozen or burst. Avoid doing so. In particular, they are likely to be frozen if "Sensor Cooling" is enabled. A lid or plastic wrap can prevent freezing.
Adjusting temperature in a refrigerator compartment
The temperature is set to “■■” at the time of purchase. Use the setting on a daily basis.
If you feel the inside is not cooled enough in summer, select "■■■".

Touch MENU button on the Control Panel to turn on the indicator lamp.
All indicator lamps turn on, and then the current settings are displayed.

Touch Fridge button to set the temperature as you like.

Guide for Refrigerator Compartment temperatures:
“■■■” sets a temperature lower than that for “■■” by about 1 to 3 °C.
“■” sets a temperature higher than that for “■■” by about 1 to 3 °C.
Request
- When you use “■■■” for a long time during winter, food may be frozen. If the inside is too cool, use “■■” or “■”.
Notice
● The temperature may change depending on the operation states.
● If you adjust the temperature more finely. → Pg.62
● The “■■■” setting of the Freezer Compartment consumes more energy than the “■■” setting by approximately 20%.
● Changing the temperature setting of the Refrigerator Compartment also changes the temperature in the Vacuum Compartment.
Adjust the height of a pocket/shelf
You can adjust the position of the pocket and the shelf depending on size of foods or beverages.
For how to remove/attach, see → Pg.70.

CAUTION
Handling the glass shelves
● Avoid a high impact on the glass shelf. (A broken glass may cause injury)
● Be careful to attach the glass shelves because they are heavy.
■ Height adjustable upper shelves / Height adjustable middle shelves / Height adjustable lower shelves / Height adjustable pockets


● State at the time of purchase

● Storage of pans, etc.

Mount the shelf board at the middle level.
● Storage of pans, etc.

Turn the upside of the shelf board down and mount it at the upper level.
● Storage of milk carton, etc.

Mount the shelf board at the lower level.
● Storage of milk carton, etc.

Turn the upside of the shelf board down and mount it at the lower level.
When keeping food at lower temperatures (using the "Sensor Cooling" function)
"Sensor Cooling" has two functions:
● Lower the temperature of the "Low-temperature Refrigeration Space" (Disabled: About 2 to 6 °C
⇒ Enabled: About 0 to 3 °C)
Suitable for storing prepared daily dishes.
Upon placing a hot food in the "Automatic Rapid Cooling Space", a sensor detects the temperature of the food and cools it rapidly. Even if you put a hot pan, the refrigerator can cool it rapidly, while reducing the impact on other foods. To put a pan in the "Automatic Rapid Cooling Space", cool it down to a temperature at which one can touch it with bare hands (50 °C or less). This can prevent burn injury or shelf deformation.

Notice
● Enabling "Sensor Cooling" enables both of the "Low-temperature Refrigeration" and "Automatic Rapid Cooling" functions at the same time. Either of the functions cannot be enabled.
- When "Sensor Cooling" is enabled, the refrigerator consumes more power than when disabled. The operating sound may be noisier.
- When "Sensor Cooling" is enabled, temperature in the Double door pockets is also lower than when disabled.
- When the Refrigerator Compartment is set to “■” or “Energy Saving”, the temperature in the entire Refrigerator Compartment is higher than that for “■■” by about 1 to 3 °C. If the Refrigerator Compartment is set to “■■■”,the temperature in the entire Refrigerator Compartment is about 0 to 3 °C.
In the "Automatic Rapid Cooling" mode, the sensor may not be able to detect the temperature of food, depending on the amount or temperature of the food. However, when "Sensor Cooling" is enabled, the Low-temperature Refrigeration Space is lower than when disabled, allowing you to cool food more quickly.
The above temperature in the "Low-temperature Refrigeration Space" is based on the assumption that the surrounding temperature is about 32 °C and the temperatures of the Refrigerator and Freezer Compartments are stable at the "■■" setting.
How to enable "Sensor Cooling"

● Temperature in the case may be lowered when the outdoor temperature is low.
Request
In the following cases, cancel the "Veg" setting:
● You care about dents on or discoloration of the surfaces of low-temperature sensitive vegetables, such as eggplant.
● You care about dew condensation in the Vegetable Compartment.
Store food according to its type or size.
● Pay attention to the height of food to be stored.
• The door may not be closed securely, which leads to inefficient cooling. It may also damage food, the case and the Moisture Cover.
- Some PET bottle can't be stored, depending on its type.
- Do not use the refrigerator with the Upper Case removed.
- Doing so may cause food to drop into the rear of the case, which may prevent the closing of the door.
- Do not push more food or beverage than can be accommodated.
• The partition, the cases or the Moisture Cover may be damaged.

Tips for storing vegetables
■ Types of food recommended to be kept at room temperature
We recommend that the following types of food be kept in a cool location away from direct sunlight: garlic, onion, potatoes, sweet potatoes, squash, and whole (uncut) pumpkins.





Risk of damage due to low temperatures
Some foods might change color or lose flavor if stored in the vegetable compartment for an extended period of time. Other types of food might lose their vitamin C content, grow mold, or spoil.
● Vegetables: Tomatoes, green pepper, cucumber, eggplants, green beans, sweet potatoes, okra, etc.
● Fruits: Bananas, pineapple, mangos, papayas, avocados, lemons, etc.


Above foods become delicious by cooling in the refrigerator for a short time before eating.
Request
- If the vegetable compartment contains only a few items, it might not be able to maintain a high level of moisture. In such cases, wrap the items to be stored, in plastic wrap to prevent them from drying out.
● The moisture level of the vegetable compartment is relatively high. As such, depending on the amount and types of vegetables stored in the compartment, moisture might condense on the surfaces of containers, on the moisture-retention unit and cover, or on items stored in the compartment. If you are concern about moisture condensing on the surface of foods, wrap foods in plastic wrap before storing them in this compartment. - If the moisture-retention unit is blocked (for example, by food in containers or bags), moisture is more likely to condense. Be sure to store food in a way that does not block the moisture-retention unit.
● Water accumulating in the container might cause food to spoil faster. Use a sponge or dishcloth to wipe up any water that accumulates.
● Dried food (rice, laver, etc.) stored in the vegetable compartment might absorb moisture. To prevent this, put the dried food in a sealed container or bag before storing it in the vegetable compartment.
Notice
The temperature of the space for tall items is slightly higher than that of other containers.

Setting "Energy Saving" mode
Setting the "Energy Saving" mode reduces the ability to cool each compartment for energy savings.
Likewise, when the door of the Vegetable Compartment is left open for 30 seconds or more, the LED light in the compartment has reduced brightness for energy savings.
If a door is not opened or closed for a long time, the inside is cooled down slowly to further reduce power consumption.

Notice
● Automatic temperature control lowers cooling loads, which may cause ice cream to get soft and frost to form on frozen food. It also requires longer freezing time and ice making time.
● The "Save" indicator lamp is turned on during the "Energy Saving" mode.
- When "Quick" is set in the Energy Saving mode, the Energy Saving mode is temporarily cancelled, and restored after the completion of the quick operation.
- When both "Save" and "Veg" modes are set concurrently, the cooling function will be weakened from the "Veg". → Pg.60
