This appliance contains the coolant isobutane (R600a), a natural gas that is environmentally friendly. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the greenhouse effect. The use of this coolant has, however, led to a slight increase in the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the noise of the compressor, you might be able to hear the coolant flowing around the system. This is unavoidable and does not have any adverse effect on the performance of the appliance. Care must be taken during the transportation and setting up of the appliance so that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes.

Notes on daily use

• Do not put hot food in the machine.
• Do not place food directly against the rear panel.
• Frozen food must not be refrozen after defrosting.
• Store packaged frozen food according to the instructions of the frozen food manufacturer.
• Do not place carbonated fizzy drinks in the freezer compartment as the pressure they generate can cause them to explode and damage the appliance.
• Open the door as rarely as possible.
• Do not leave the door open too long.
• Do not set the thermostat too low.
• To reduce energy consumption, leave all accessories, such as drawers, shelves, or racks in the appliance.

Notes on installation

• Unpack the machine and check for damage. Do not connect the machine if it is damaged. Report any damage immediately to the manufacturer. Save the original packaging for the possible return shipment.
• Wait at least four hours before connecting the unit to allow the coolant to distribute itself in the cooling circuit.
• Ensure that there is sufficient air circulation around the unit. Otherwise, the unit may overheat.
• If possible, the spacers on the unit should rest against the wall. This prevents burns caused by touching the hot compressor or condenser.
• The unit must not be installed near radiators or cookers.
• Make sure that the mains plug is always accessible after the unit has been installed.
• Install this unit in a location where the ambient temperature corresponds to the climate class indicated on the unit‘s nameplate:

SN| Low| This cooling unit is designed for use at ambient temperatures of 10-32 °C.
---|---|---
N| Moderate| This cooling unit is intended for use at ambient temperatures of 16-32 °C.

• When positioning the machine, make sure that the main cable is not pinched or damaged.
• Ensure that there are no multiple sockets or power supply units on the rear of the machine.

To avoid contamination of food, please follow the instructions below:

• The prolonged opening of the door can cause a significant temperature rise in the compartments of the unit.
• Clean surfaces that may come into contact with food regularly. Clean the water drain regularly.
• Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator so that meat and fish do not come into contact with or drip onto other foods.

Notes on the freezer compartments

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

INSTALLATION

In General

When installing a heat pipe refrigerator, ventilation should be considered seriously, please refer to the following:

• There should be left at least 200 cm³ for ventilation.
• The distance between the wall and the refrigerator side should be at least 20 mm.
• The bottom should be left at least 50 mm for air flowing air passing through must not be preheated.
• The entire cooling system should be considered in the ventilation.
• The following four pictures show four installation ways:

CHANGING THE SWING HINGE

This refrigerator has the capability of the door opening from either the left or right side.
The unit is delivered to you with the door opening from the left side. Should you desire to reverse the opening direction, please follow the below instructions:

• Pull out the three screws from the right hinge.
• Remove the hinge (upper and lower) away.
• Install the door in a suitable position with hinges, and use three self-screws to fix them.

OPERATION

• The refrigerator will have better performance at an ambient of 20-25 degrees. We suggest the refrigerator be powered off if the ambient temperature is lower than 10 degrees.
• After plugging the appliance, allow the unit to cool down for 2-3 hours before placing the beverage into the refrigerator compartment.
• Ventilation is very important for this kind of thermoelectric refrigerator. The inside PCB will be broken easily if the ventilation is bad; It will also reduce the life of the refrigerator.
• The refrigerator applies an automatic defrosting system, so there is no need to defrost it manually.
