Energy saving tips

  • The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.
  • Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in the appliance. Overloading the appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
  • Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the app there.
  • The appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper towels. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the appliance less efficient.
  • Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.

Defrosting
The refrigerator is made based on the air-cooling principle and thus has an automatic defrosting function. Frost formed due to change of season or temperature may also be manually removed by disconnection of the appliance from the power supply or by wiping with a dry towel.

Out of operation

  • Power failure: In case of power failure, even if it is in summer, foods inside the appliance can be kept for several hours; during the power failure, the times of door opening shall be reduced, and no more fresh food shall be put into the appliance.
  • Long-time nonuse: The appliance shall be unplugged and then cleaned; then the doors are left open to prevent odor.
  • Moving: Before the refrigerator is moved, take all objects inside out, fix the glass partitions, vegetable holder, freezing chamber d, drawers, etc. with tape, and tighten the leveling feet; close the doors and fix them with tape. During moving, the appliance shall not be laid upside down or horizontally, or be vibrated; the inclination during movement shall be no more than 45°.
    • The appliance shall run continuously once it is started. Generally, the operation of the appliance shall not be interr upted; otherwise, the service life may be impaired.

TROUBLESHOOTING

  • You may try to solve the following simple problems by yourself.
  • If they cannot be solved, please contact the after-sales department.

Failed operation| Check whether the appliance is connected to power or whether the plug is in good contact

Check whether the voltage is too low

Check whether there is a power failure or partial circuits have tripped

---|---
Odor| Odorous foods shall be tightly wrapped Check whether there is any rotten food Clean the inside of the refrigerator
Long-time operation of the compressor| Long operation of the refrigerator is normal in summer when the ambient temperature is high

It is not suggestible have too much food in the appliance at the same time Food shall get cool before being put into the appliance

The doors are opened too frequently

Light fails to get lit| Check whether the refrigerator is connected to the power supply and whether the illuminating light is damaged

Have the light replaced by a specialist

Doors cannot be properly closed| The door is stuck by food packages The refrigerator is tilted
Loud noise| Check whether the floor is level and whether the refrigerator is placed stably Check whether accessories are placed at the proper locations
The door seal fails to be tight| Remove foreign matters on the door seal

Heat the door seal and then cool it for restoration

(or blow it with an electrical drier or use a hot towel for heating)

Water pan overflows| There is too much food in the chamber or food stored contains too much water, resulting in heavy defrosting

The doors are not closed properly, resulting in frosting due to the entry of air and increased water due to defrosting

Hot housing| Heat dissipation of the built-in condenser via the housing, is normal. When housing becomes hot due to high ambient temperature and storage of too much food, it is recommended to provide sound ventilation to facilitate heat dissipation.
Surface condensation| Condensation on the exterior surface and door seals of the refrigerator is normal when the ambient humidity is too high. Just wipe the condensate with a clean towel.
Abnormal noise| Buzz: The compressor may produce buzzes during operation, and the buzze: is loud particularly upon start or stop. This is normal.

Creak: Refrigerant flowing inside of the appliance may produce a creak, which is normal.
