OPERATION

PRODUCT COMPONENTS

CONTROL PANEL OVERVIEW

DISPLAY SCREEN

• When plugging in the refrigerator for the first time, the full display screen will illuminate for 3 seconds as a start-up chime sounds. After 3 seconds, the screen will enter normal display of operation.
• The default refrigerator temperature is 39 °F (4 °C). The default freezer temperature is 0 °F (-18 °C). Both will display by alternating back and forth.

DISPLAY SCREEN NOTES

• When changing functions on the control panel, the display screen lights will go out after 30 seconds once locked, no matter if the doors are open or closed. After 30 seconds, pressing any button on the panel will wake up the display screen.
• The display screen lights will turn on once any door is opened; in this instance, the light will go out immediately when the door is closed.
• If any error codes occur (see more on page 10), the display screen will illuminate and then go out after 30 seconds.
• While the control panel and/or display screen shown above may slightly differ from model to model, the controls and operation will be the same.

Scan to follow along with a video detailing how to operate the control panel.

RECOMMENDED TEMPERATURE

Optimal temperature settings are 39 °F (4 °C) for the refrigerator compartment and 0 °F (-18 °C) for the freezer compartment.

WARNING: Optimal temperature settings are based on an optimal ambient temperature surrounding the unit of 77 °F (25 °C). Higher or lower ambient temperatures may impact the efficiency of your unit.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

• Do not place the appliance near ovens, ranges, radiators, or other heat sources. If the ambient temperature is high, the compressor will run more frequently and for longer, resulting in increased energy consumption.
• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation at the base of the appliance, on the sides of the appliance, and at the back of the appliance. Never cover ventilation openings.
• Please observe “Product Dimensions” and “Door Handle Installation” in the Installation Manual.
• The arrangement of drawers, shelves, and trays as shown in the “Product Components” illustration on “Product Components” on page 5 offers the most efficient use of energy for food storage and should therefore be retained as often as possible. All drawers and shelves should remain inside the appliance to keep temperatures stable and to conserve energy.
• If a larger storage space is needed (e.g. for large refrigerated goods), the middle drawers can be removed. The top and bottom drawers and shelves should be removed last if necessary.
• An evenly filled refrigerator/freezer compartment contributes to optimal energy use. Therefore, avoid empty or half-empty compartments.
• Allow warm food to cool before placing it in the refrigerator/freezer. Food that has already cooled down increases energy efficiency.
• Allow frozen food to defrost in the refrigerator. The coldness of the frozen food reduces the energy consumption in the refrigerator compartment and thus increases overall energy efficiency.
• Open the door only as briefly as necessary to minimize loss of cool air. Opening the door briefly and closing it properly reduces energy consumption.
• The door seals of your appliance must be intact so the doors close properly and energy consumption is not increased unnecessarily.

FOOD STORAGE TIPS – FREEZER COMPARTMENT

• The freezer is designated for the storage of frozen food at very low temperatures, longterm storage of frozen food, and for production of ice.
• Only use the shelves in the door of the freezer to store frozen food, not for storing hot food designated for freezing. Let hot foods cool before freezing.
• Do not put fresh and frozen foods next to each other. The frozen food may thaw.
• When freezing fresh food such as meat, fish, or large vegetables, cut them into parts that can be used at the same time.
• When purchasing frozen food, make sure it was frozen at a suitable temperature and that the packaging is not damaged.
• Frozen food should be kept in suitable packages to retain quality and should be returned to the freezer compartment as soon as possible after removal.
• If a package of frozen food shows moisture or abnormal bulging, it likely was stored at the wrong temperature and the content may be spoiled.
• The storage period for frozen food depends on ambient temperatures, thermostat settings, frequency of opening the door of the freezer, and the type of food. Always follow manufacturer instructions printed on the packaging. If there is no information, food should not be stored for longer than three months from date of purchase.

FOOD STORAGE TIPS – REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

• To reduce moisture and subsequent ice build-up, never put liquid inside the refrigerator in unsealed containers. Frost tends to concentrate in the coolest parts of the evaporator. Storing uncovered liquids results in a more frequent need for defrosting.
• Never put hot or warm foods in the refrigerator. These should first cool down to room temperature to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator.
• Foods or food containers should not touch the back wall of the refrigerator because they could freeze to the wall.
• Do not keep regularly opening the door of the refrigerator.
• Meat, fish, and poultry (recommended to be contained in a package or plastic foil) can be placed in the refrigerator, so long as the food is used within 1–2 days.
• Fruit and vegetables without packaging should be placed in the crisper drawer, which is designated for fresh produce.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

OVERALL CLEANING OF THE APPLIANCE

• Dirt and dust build-up behind the refrigerator and on the surrounding floor should be cleaned frequently to improve cooling efficiency and save energy.
• Check the door gaskets regularly to make sure there is no debris. Clean door gaskets with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or a diluted kitchen-safe cleaner.
• The interior of the refrigerator should be cleaned regularly to avoid odor.
• Remove all food, drinks, shelves, drawers, etc., before cleaning the interior.
• Mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda with a quart of warm water and use a soft cloth or sponge to clean the inside of the refrigerator. After wiping clean, open the door and let the appliance dry naturally before turning on the power.
• For areas that are difficult to clean in the refrigerator (such as narrow crevices, gaps, or corners), it is recommended to wipe them regularly with a soft rag, soft brush, etc., and when necessary, use non-metal or abrasive tools (such as toothpicks or Popsicle sticks) to ensure no contaminants or bacteria accumulate.
• Do not use soap, detergent, scrub powder, spray cleaner, etc., as these may cause odors in the interior of the refrigerator or contaminate food.
• Clean the shelves and drawers with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or a diluted kitchen-safe cleaner. Dry with a soft cloth or dry naturally.
• Wipe the outer surface of the refrigerator with a soft cloth dampened with a stainless steel cleaner, soapy water, detergent, etc., and wipe dry.
