SPECIAL FEATURE

• NON-FLON
  This unit uses totally NON-FLON MATERIALS both for refrigerant (iso-butane (R600a)) and for insulation (Cyclo-Pentane). These materials do not damage the earth’s ozone layer and have almost no effect on global warming.

• INVERTER
  In accordance with the temperature changes inside the compartment, the motor will run at different speeds. When the temperature inside the refrigerator is stable, the motor will run at a slower speed to save energy and lower noise. When powerful cooling is required, the motor will run at a higher speed.
