Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized service center.

Climate Range
The information about the climate range of the appliance is provided on the rating plate. It indicates at which ambient temperature (that is, room temperature, in which the appliance is working) the operation of the appliance is optimal (proper).

Note: Given the limit values of the ambient temperature range for the climate classes for which the refrigerating appliance is designed and the fact that the internal temperatures could be affected by such factors as location of the refrigerating appliance, ambient temperature and the frequency of door opening, the setting of any temperature control device might have to be varied to allow for these factors, if appropriate.

Note: When operating in an environment other than the specified climate type (i.e., beyond the rated ambient temperature range), the appliance may not be able to maintain the desirable compartment temperatures.

Locks

If your Refrigerator is fitted with a lock, keep the key out of reach and not in the vicinity of the appliance to prevent children being entrapped. When disposing of an old Refrigerator, break off any old locks or latches as a safeguard.

Freon-free

The Freon -free refrigerant (R600a) and the foaming insulation material (cyclopentane) that is environmentally friendly are used for the refrigerator, causing no damage to the ozone layer and having a very small impact on the global warming.R600a is flammable, and sealed in a refrigeration system, without leakage during normal use. But, in case of refrigerant leakage due to the refrigerant circuit being damaged, be sure to keep the appliance away from open flames and open the windows for ventilation as quickly as possible.

INTRODUCTION

Installation location

1. Ventilation condition
   The position you select for the refrigerator installation should be well- ventilated and has less hot air. Do not locate the refrigerator near a heat source such as cooker, boiler, and avoid it from direct sunlight, thus guaranteeing the refrigeration effect while saving energy consumption. Do not locate the refrigerator in the damp place, so as to prevent the refrigerator from rusting and leaking electricity. The result of the refrigerant charge amount of the refrigerator being divided by the total space of the room in which the refrigerator is installed shall be less than 8g / m³.
   Note: The amount of refrigerant charged for the refrigerator can be found on the nameplate.

2. Heat dissipation space
   When working, the refrigerator gives off heat to surroundings. Therefore, at least 30mm of free space should be spared at the top side, more than 100mm on both sides, and above 50mm at the back side of the refrigerator.。
   Dimensions in mm
   Note: Figure 1, Figure 2 only as a product space demand size schematic diagram.
   

3. Level ground
   Place the refrigerator on the solid and flat ground (floor) to keep it stable, or else, it will give rise to vibration and noise.
   When the refrigerator is placed on such flooring materials as carpet, straw mat, polyvinyl chloride, the solid backing
   plates sho uld be applied underneath the refrigerator, so as to prevent color change due to heat dissipation.

Unobstructed ventilation shall be maintained around the appliance or in an embedded structure.

Preparations for use

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 of 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 freezer door, if the temperature inside the freezer 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 set surrounding it, so try to keep the refrigerator as far away as possible in such case.

START

Testing

1. Clean the parts of the refrigerator with lukewarm water containing a little neutral detergent and with clear water and wipe them dry.
   Notes: Electric parts of the refrigerator can only be wiped by dry cloth.

2. Turn the thermostat knob to the “4” position, turn on electricity. The compressor and the light inside the refrigerator begin to work.

3. Close the door 30 minutes later, if the temperature in the freezer compartment decreased obviously, it shows that the refrigerator system works well. When the refrigerator operates for a period of time, the temperature controller will automatically set the temperature within limits it opens.

4. If the above steps are successful, the trial operations finish. The refrigerator works normally.

Adjusting the temperature
The temperature of the appliance can be adjusted by turning the thermostat dial.

• The thermostat can be set between 1 and 7.
• 1 is the warmest setting.
• 7 is the coldest setting.
• The recommended setting is 4.
• Set the dial to OFF to turn off the cooling function.

Internal temperature of the appliance can vary based on ambient temperature, the quantity of items stored and how frequently the door is opened.

Manual fast Freeze

1. Fast freezing makes water in the food form into fine ice crystal, so as to prevent the cell membrane from being damaged and the cytoplasm from being lost when thawing, thus preserving the original freshness and nutrition of food.
2. Fresh food and fish to be preserved for a long time should be frozen in a fast manner. To realize fast freezing, please adjust the knob switch to mode “7” before adding the food.
3. After fast freezing, turn the knob back to its original mode (In general, the fast freezing time shall not exceed 4 hours).

Notes: The thermostat setting of ‘6’ or ‘7’ is suitable when ambient temperature is under 16 °C, but it may lead to ice formation if the refrigerator keeps running at such setting for a long time under the normal ambient temperature, which belongs to normal phenomenon. In such case, it is recommended to adjust back the thermostat setting appropriately.

IN USE

1. The appliance might not operate consistently (possibility of defrosting of contents or temperature becoming too warm in the frozen food compartment) when sited for an extended period of time below the cold end of the range of temperatures for which the refrigerating appliance is designed
2. The fact that the internal temperatures could be affected by such factors as the location of the refrigerating appliance, ambient temperature and the frequency of door opening, and, if appropriate, a warning that the setting of any temperature control device might have to be varied to allow for these factors
3. The fact that effervescent drinks should not be stored in food freezer compartments or cabinets or in low-temperature compartments or cabinets, and that some products such as water ices should not be consumed too cold
4. The need to not exceed the storage time(s) recommended by the food manufacturers for any kind of food
5. The fact that a rise in temperature of the frozen food during manual defrosting, maintenance or cleaning could shorten the storage life
6. It is better wrapping the frozen food in several layers of the glass shelves.
7. the care required with regard to frozen food in storage in the event of an extended non-running of the refrigerating appliance (interruption of power supply or failure of the refrigerating system)

Tips for keeping food perfect in the Fridge
Take extra care with meat and fish
Cooked meats should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats on a plate which is large enough to collect juices and cover it with cling film or foil.
Leave space around food
This allows cold air to circulate around the Fridge, ensuring all parts of the Fridge are kept cool.
Wrap up food!
To prevent transfer of flavors and drying out, food should be separately packed or covered. Fruit and vegetables need not be wrapped.
Pre-cooked food should be cooled properly
Allow pre-cooked food to cool down before placing in the Fridge. This will help to stop the internal temperature of the Fridge from rising.
Shut the door!
To prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the number of times you open the 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.
Where to store your foods in the fridge

Cool area
This is where to store foods which will keep longer if they are kept cool. Milk, eggs, yogurt, fruit juices, hard cheeses eg.
Cheddar. Opened jars and bottles of salad dressings, sauces and jams. Fats, eg. Butter, margarine, low-fat speads, cooking fats and lard.

Coldest area
This is where foods which must be cold to keep them safe should be kept:

• Raw and uncooked foods should always be wrapped.
• Pre-cooked chilled foods, e.g. Ready meals, meat pies, soft cheeses.
• Pre-cooked meats e.g. Ham,
• Prepared salads (including pre-packed mixed green salads, rice, potato salad etc).
• Desserts, e.g. Fromage frais, home-prepared food and leftovers or cream cakes.

NOTE: Always wrap and store raw meat, poultry, and fish on the lowest shelf at the bottom of the fridge. This will stop them dripping onto or touching other foods. Do not store inflammable gasses or liquids in the fridge.
Tips for shopping for frozen foods
Your Freezer is 4 star

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 4 star rating. This is usually the period stated as “Best, before”, found on the front of the packaging.
Choose packs carefully
Make sure the frozen food package is in perfect condition.
Purchase frozen food last
Always buy frozen products last on your shopping trip or visit to the supermarket.
Keep frozen foods together
Try to keep frozen food together whilst shopping, and on the journey home as this will help to keep the food cooler.
Store food straight away
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 frozen food cold for longer.
Thawing frozen food
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.
Freezing fresh foods, useful tips
Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. Freeze food in small quantities, it freezes faster, takes less time to thaw and enables you to eat it in the quantity you need.
Preparations for freezing

• Leave cooked food to cool completely

• Chill food in a Fridge before freezing if possible.

• Consider how you want to cook the food before freezing it.

• Don’t freeze food in metal containers as you may want to microwave it straight from the Freezer.

• Use special Freezer bags available from supermarkets, Freezer film, polythene bags, plastic containers, aluminum foil for acidic foods (such as citrus fruits).
  Do not use thin cling film or glass. Do not use used food containers (unless cleaned thoroughly first).

• Exclude as much air from the container as possible. You could buy a special vacuum pump which sucks excessive air out of the packaging.

• Leave a small amount of “air space” when freezing liquids, to allow for expansion.

• You can use the space in the Freezer most efficiently if you freeze liquids (or solids with liquids, such as stew) in square blocks.

This is known as “performing” Pour the liquid into a polythene bag which is inside a square sided container. Freeze it like this, then remove it from the container and seal the bag.

How to use the ice-making box

Place the ice-making box in the upper position of the freezer compartment, so that it ices up as soon as possible.

Recommended storage periods
For recommended food storage time, refer to the information given on your food packaging.

Defrosting
After a period of use, a thin layer of frost will be formed on the freezer compartment inner wall (or evaporator) surface, which may affect the refrigeration effect if exceeding 5mm in thickness. In such case, you need to gently scrape the frost off using an ice scraper rather than the metal or sharp hardware. Frosts need to be cleared off every 3 months or so, and if the normal use of drawers and normal access of foods are affected by frosting, make sure to remove the frosts in a timely manner. Follow the following steps to remove frosts:

1. Take out the frozen foods, shut off the mains power supply, open the refrigerator door, and gently remove the frosts from the inner wall with an ice scraper. To speed up the thawing process, you are suggested to place a bowl of hot water inside the refrigerator/freezer, and when the solid ice frosts become loose, use an ice scraper to scrape them off and then take them out.
2. After defrosting, clean the refrigerator/freezer inside, and switch on the power supply.

Cleaning inside the Fridge/Freezer
After defrosting you should clean the Fridge/Freezer internally with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda. Then rinse with warm water using a damp sponge or cloth and wipe dry. Wash the baskets in warm soapy water and ensure they are completely dry before replacing in the Fridge/Freezer. Condensation will form on the back wall of the Fridge; however it will normally run down the back wall and into the drain hole behind the salad bin.
The drain hole will have a “cleaning spike” inserted into it. This ensures that small pieces off food can not enter the drain.
After you have cleaned the inside of your Fridge and removed any food residues from around the whole, use the “cleaning spike” to make sure that there are no blockages.
Cleaning outside the Fridge/Freezer
Use standard non-abrasive detergent diluted in warm water to clean the Fridge/Freezer exterior.
The grille of the condenser at the back of the Fridge/Freezer and the adjacent components can be vacuumed using a soft brush attachment.
Do not use harsh cleaners, scouring pads or solvents to clean any part of the Fridge/Freezer
Moving the Fridge/Freezer
Location
Do not place your Fridge/Freezer near a heat source, eg. Cooker, boiler or radiator. Also avoid direct sunlight in outbuildings or sun lounges.
Leveling the Fridge/Freezer
Make sure the Fridge/Freezer is level. Use the rotating leveling feet at the front. If the Fridge/Freezer is not level, the doors and magnetic seal alignments will be affected and may cause your Fridge/Freezer to work incorrectly.
Do not turn on the Fridge/Freezer for 4 hours
After the Fridge/Freezer is in place it needs to be left for 4 hours. This allows time for the coolant to settle. Installation

Don’t cover or block the vents or grilles of your appliance.

NOTE: When the environment is high temperature and high humidity, if opening the refrigerator door too often, there will be some frost at the back of fridge part (inside of refrigerator) and the water in water tray(located on top of compressor) will overflow, This is not breakdowns. Please power off and clear the frost and water in time. Vacation Time

Turn off the refrigerator first and then unplug the unit from the wall outlet.

• Remove all the food.
• Clean the refrigerator.
• Leave the lid open slightly to avoid possible formation of condensation, mold, or odors.
• Use extreme caution in the case of children. The unit should not be accessible to child’s play.
• Short vacations: Leave the refrigerator operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
• Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all food and unplug the power cord.
  Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary or have the door removed.

How to save energy

1. Install the refrigerator in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight and away from heating ducts or registers.
   Do not place the refrigerator next to heat-producing appliances such as a range, oven or dishwasher.

2. The refrigerator door should remain open only as long as necessary; do not place hot food inside the refrigerator.

3. Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.

4. The refrigerator door should be properly closed to avoid increased energy consumption, and the formation of excess ice and or condensation inside.

5. Constantly circulating cold air keeps the temperature homogenous inside the refrigerator. For this reason, it is important to properly distribute the food, to facilitate the flow of air.

6. Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the refrigerator. This cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit.

7. Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold air vents. Doing so causes the refrigerator to run longer and use more energy. Shelves should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the refrigerator less efficient, which could cause food spoilage.

8. During prolonged absences (example: vacations), it is advisable to disconnect the refrigerator, remove all the food, and clean it. The door should be left slightly open to avoid mold and unpleasant odors. This will not affect the refrigerator when it is reconnected.

9. During short absences (example: holidays), the refrigerator can remain on. However, remember that prolonged power outages may occur while you are gone
