Use

Gear Description

• The temperature in the refrigerator is adjusted by the temperature controller knob. The gear “MIN, MID, MAX, off” on the scale means the refrigeration effect.
• The worse the refrigeration effect, the higher the temperature in the cabinet, and the smaller the power consumption of the refrigerator; The stronger the refrigeration effect, the lower the temperature in the box and the greater the power consumption of the refrigerator.
• The “MAX” position of the scale is the lowest temperature gear in the refrigerator.
• This position can be used for quick freezing. After the food is completely frozen, please turn the scale back to the original setting gear
• The “OFF” position on the knob is the shutdown position. When this position is set, the refrigerator will not cool.If the refrigerator needs to be stopped for a long time, please unplug the power plug.

Proposal

• The common gear of the refrigerator is the “MID” position of the scale turned on.
• If the temperature in the box is too high, please increase the scale appropriately.
• If the temperature in the box is too low, please reduce the gradient appropriately.
• Please select the position of the temperature controller knob scale according to the actual needs.

Reminder

• When the ambient temperature of the refrigerator is high, if the scale number set is large, the ice may not stop, and the temperature in the cabinet may be too low.
• When the ambient temperature of the refrigerator is low, if the scale number is set to be small, the refrigerator may not be started, resulting in high temperature in the box, which is not conducive to food storage and preservation After the temperature is adjusted, it takes a period of time to achieve the temperature balance in the box. And the length of this period depends on the size of the changed gear, the ambient tem- perature, the frequency of opening the door, and the amount of food stored in the box

Before first use

• Remove all packaging materials, keep them out of children’s reach and dispose them in an environmentally friendly manner.

Power interruption

In the event of a power cut, food should remain safely cold for about 5 hours. Follow these tips during a prolonged power interruption, especially in summer:

• Open the door/drawer as few times as possible.
• Do not put additional food into the appliance during a power interruption.
• If prior notice of a power interruption is given and the interruption duration is longer than 5 hours, make some ice and put it in a container in the top of the refrigerator compartment.
• . An inspection of the goods is required immediately after the interruption.
• As the temperature in the refrigerator will rise during a power interruption or other failure, the storage period and edible quality of food will be reduced. Any food that defrosts should be either consumed, or cooked and refrozen (where suit- able) soon afterwards in order to prevent health risks.
