- The information about the climate range of the appliance is provided on the rating plate. It indicates at which ambient temperature (that is, room temperature, in which the appliance is working) the operation of the appliance is optimal (proper).
Climate range | Permissible ambient temperature |
---|---|
SN | from +10°C to +32°C |
N | from +16°C to +32°C |
ST | from +16°C to +38°C |
Note Given the limit values of the ambient temperature range for the
climate classes for which the refrigerating appliance is designed and the fact
that the internal temperatures could be affected by such factors as the
location of the refrigerating appliance, ambient temperature, and the
frequency of door opening, the setting of any temperature control device might
have to be varied to allow for these factors, if appropriate. If the power
cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent,
or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Note: When operating in an environment other than the specified climate

Preparations for use
Installation location:
Ventilation condition
The position you select for the refrigerator installation should be well-
ventilated and has less hot air. Do not locate the refrigerator near a heat
source such as a cooker, and avoid it from direct sunlight, thus guaranteeing
the refrigeration effect while saving energy consumption. Do not locate the
refrigerator in a damp place, so as to prevent the refrigerator from rusting
and leaking electricity. The result of the total space of the room in which
the refrigerator is installed being divided by the refrigerant charge amount
of the refrigerator shall not be less than 8 g/ M3.
Note: The amount of refrigerant charged for the refrigerator can be found on
the nameplate.
Heat dissipation space
When working, the refrigerator gives off heat to the surroundings. Therefore, at least 300mm of free space should be spared at the top side, more than 100mm on both sides, and above 50mm at the backside of the refrigerator.
3. Level ground
Place the refrigerator on the solid and flat ground (floor) to keep it stable, or else, it will give rise to vibration and noise. When the refrigerator is placed on such flooring materials as carpet, straw mat, polyvinyl chloride, the solid backing plates should be applied underneath the refrigerator, so as to prevent color change due to heat dissipation.
Preparations for use
Standing time
After the refrigerator is properly installed and well cleaned, do not switch
it on immediately. Make sure to energize the refrigerator after more than 1
hour’s standing, so as to ensure its normal operation.
Cleaning
Confirm the accessory parts inside the refrigerator and wipe the inside with a
soft cloth.
Power-on
Insert the plug into the solid socket to start the compressor. After 1 hour,
open the refrigerator door, if the temperature inside the refrigerator
compartment drops obviously, it indicates the refrigeration system is working
normally.
Storage of food
After the refrigerator runs for a period of time, the internal temperature of
the refrigerator will be automatically controlled according to the user’s
temperature setting. After the refrigerator is fully cooled, put in foods,
which usually need 2~3 hours to be fully cooled. In summer, when the
temperature is high, it takes more than 4 hours for the foods to be fully
cooled (Try to open the refrigerator door as less as possible before the
internal temperature cools down).
If the refrigerator is installed in the moisture place, make sure to check whether the ground wire and leakage circuit breaker are normal. If vibration noises are produced due to the refrigerator contacting the wall or if the wall gets blackened by air convection around the compressor, move the refrigerator away from the wall. Setting up the refrigerator may cause jamming noise or image chaos to the mobile phone, fixed-line telephone, radio receiver, television surrounding it, so try to keep the refrigerator as far away as possible in such case.
Functions
Temperature can be adjusted by pressing the ‘SET’ key, and if no key operation within 3s after temperature setting, the said setting will be validated, with the temperature immediately controlled as per the setting; and the mode indicator light will go off after 3 seconds.
- When the temperature mode keeps unchanged, adjust the air regulating rod from left to right, the fridge temperature gets decreased while the freezer temperature increases.
- When the temperature mode keeps unchanged, adjust the air regulating rod from right to left, the fridge temperature gets increases while the freezer temperature decreased.
- It is recommended to adjust the air regulating rod in the middle position. When the user needs a lower freezer temperature, adjust the air regulating rod to the left properly, then the freezer temperature decreases while the fridge temperature rises. When the temperature meets the requirement, adjust the air regulating rod back to the middle position again in a timely manner.
Temperature adjustment
Use environment| Recommended mode setting on the display panel| Recommended air regulating rod position|
Notes
Higher than 35℃
|

1) It is recommended to set at the middle mode.
2) The temperature modes can be adjusted as recommended in the left table in case of change to the ambient temperature around the refrigerator
16℃-35℃
|
|
Lower than 16℃
|
|
- When the ambient temperature around the refrigerator is higher than 35 ℃, do not set the thermostat at Mode 5 and adjust the air regulating rod to the leftmost position, so as not to affect the normal refrigeration of the refrigerator.
- Do not set the thermostat at Mode 5 and adjust the air regulating rod to the rightmost position, in order to avoid the fridge compartment undercooling.
- If the fridge temperature is not cool or undercooled, set the thermostat at the middle mode and adjust the air regulating rod in the middle position.
- In case the ‘Fastcool’ function is enabled, adjust the air regulating rod to the middle position.
“FAST COOL”
Cooling down the temperature in a rapid manner is beneficial to the prevention
of food nutrition against lost and the preservation of freshness.
After a cumulative running period of 3 hours, the fast cooling function will
exit automatically, with the temperature mode restored to that set before the
fast cooling function is enabled.
Door open alarm
If the fridge door is open for more than 3 minutes, buzzer alarms will be continuously issued, which can be stopped when the set key is pressed, but will be restored after 3 minutes if the door keeps open. The alarms will not be lifted until the door is closed.
Power cut memory
In case of power failure, the refrigerator will maintain the operating state
before power failure when power supply is restored.
Power-on delay
In order to protect the refrigerator compressor from being damaged in the case of short-time power failure (i.e., less than 5 minutes), the compressor will not be started immediately after it is powered on.
Instructions for food storage
Precautions for use
-
The appliance might not operate consistently (there is the possibility of defrosting or temperature becoming too warm in the frozen food compartment) when sited for an extended period of time below the cold limit of the temperature range for which the refrigerating appliance is designed
-
The information on the climate type of the appliance is provided on the rating plate.
-
The internal temperature could be affected by such factors as the location of refrigerating appliance, ambient temperature, and frequency of door open, etc., and if appropriate, a warning that setting of any temperature control device might have to be varied to allow for these factors should be made.
-
Effervescent drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartment or the low-temperature compartment, and some products such as water ices should not be consumed too cold.
-
Food storage location
-
Due to the cold air circulation in the refrigerator, the temperature of each area in the refrigerator is different, so different kinds of food should be placed in different areas.
-
The fresh food compartment is suitable for the storage of such foods as need not to be frozen, the cooked food, beer, eggs, some condiments that need cold preservation, milk, fruit juice, etc. The crisper box is suitable for the preservation of vegetables, fruits, etc
-
.The freezer compartment is suitable for the storage of ice cream, frozen food and the foods to be preserved for a long time.
-
Use of the fresh food compartment
Set the temperature of the fresh food storage compartment between 2 ℃ ~ 8 ℃, and store the foods that are intended for short-term storage, or to be eaten at any time in the fresh food compartment.
Fridge shelf: When removing the shelf, lift it up first, and then pull it out; and when installing the shelf, place it into position before putting it down. Keep the shelf rear flange upward, to prevent foods from contact the liner wall. When taking out or putting in the shelf, hold it firmly, and handle it with care to avoid damage.
Crisper box: Pull out the crisper box for access to food. After using or cleaning the cover plate of the crisper box, be sure to put it back onto the crisper, so that the internal temperature of the crisper box will not be affected. -
Use of the crisper humidity regulating rod
The humidity regulating rod of the crisper box is designed to maintain the humidity and freshness of the vegetables stored inside. When the humidity regulating rod is slid to the right, with more holes exposed, lower humidity will be kept inside the crisper box. When the humidity regulating rod is slid to the left, with fewer holes exposed, higher humidity will be kept inside the crisper box. -
How to use the ice-making box
Place the ice-making box in the upper position of the freezer compartment, so that it ices up as soon as possible. -
Cautions for food storage
You’d better clean the foods and wipe them dry before storing them inside the refrigerator. Before foods are put in the refrigerator, it is advisable to seal them up, so as to prevent water evaporation to keep fresh fruits and vegetables on one hand and prevent taint of odor on the other hand.
Do not put too many or too heavy foods inside the refrigerator. Keep enough space between foods; if too close, the cold airflow will be blocked, thus affecting the refrigeration effect. Do not store excessive or overweight foods, to avoid the shelf from being crushed. When storing the foods, keep a distance away from the inner wall; and do not place the water-rich foods too close to the fridge rear wall, lest they get frozen on the inner wall. -
Categorized storage of foods:
Foods should be stored by category, with the foods you eat every day placed in front of the shelf so that the door open duration can be shortened and food spoilage due to expiration can be avoided.
Energy-saving tips: Allow the hot food to cool down to room temperature before putting it in the refrigerator. Put the frozen food in the fresh food compartment to thaw, using the low temperature of the frozen food to cool the fresh food, thus saving energy. -
Storage of fruits and vegetables
In the case of refrigerating appliances with chill compartments, a statement to the effect that some types of fresh vegetables and fruits are sensitive to cold and therefore are not suitable for storage in this kind of compartment should be made. -
Use of the frozen food storage compartment
The freezer temperature is controlled below -18 ℃, and it is advisable to store the food for long-term preservation in the freezer compartment, but the storage duration indicated on the food packaging should be adhered to.
The freezer drawers are used to store food that needs to be frozen. Fish and meat of large block size should be cut into small pieces and packed into fresh-keeping bags before they are evenly distributed inside the freezer drawers.
Allow the hot foods to cool down to room temperature before putting them in
the freezer compartment.
Do not put a glass container with liquid or the canned liquid that is sealed
in the freezer compartment, so as to avoid bursting due to volume expansion
after the liquid gets frozen up.
Divide the food into appropriately small portions
You’d better pack the food up before freezing it, and the packing bag used
should be dry, in case the packing bags are frozen together. Foods should be
packed or covered by such suitable materials as are firm, tasteless,
impervious to air and water, non-toxic, and pollution-free, to avoid cross-
contamination and transfer of odor.
Tips for shopping the frozen foods
- When you are buying frozen food, look at the Storage Guidelines on the packaging. You will be able to store each item of frozen food for the period shown against the star rating. This is usually the period stated as “Best to use them before×”, found on the front of the packaging.
- Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop where you buy the frozen foods.
- Make sure the frozen food package is in perfect condition.
- Always buy frozen products last on your shopping trip or visit to the supermarket.
- Try to keep frozen food together whilst shopping and on the journey home, as this will help to keep the food cooler.
- Don’t buy frozen food unless you can freeze it straight away. Special insulated bags can be bought from most supermarkets and hardware shops. These keep the frozen foods cold longer.
- For some foods, thawing before cooking is unnecessary. Vegetables and pasta can be added directly to boiling water or steam cooked. Frozen sauces and soups can be put into a saucepan and heated gently until thawed.
- Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. When foods are frozen in small quantities, it will take less than for them to freeze up and thaw.
- Estimate the number of foods to be frozen up. When freezing large amounts of fresh food, adjust the temperature control knob to the low mode, with the freezer temperature lowered. So, foods can be frozen up in fast manner, with the food freshness well kept.
Tips for special needs
Moving the refrigerator/freezer
-
Location
Do not place your refrigerator/freezer near a heat source, e.g. cooker, boiler or radiator. Avoid it from direct sunlight in out-buildings or sun lounges. -
Leveling
Make sure to level your refrigerator/freezer using the front leveling feet. If not level, the refrigerator/freezer door gasket sealing performance will be affected, or even it may lead to the operating failure of your -
refrigerator/freezer.
After locating the refrigerator/freezer in position, wait for 4 hours before using it, so as to allow the refrigerant to settle. -
Installation
Do not cover or block the vents or grilles of your appliance.
When you are out for a long time
- If the appliance will not be used for several months, turn it off first, and then unplug the plug from the wall outlet.
- Take out all foods.
- Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door ajar: block it open or have the door removed if necessary.
- Keep the cleaned appliance in a dry, ventilated place and away from the heat source, place the appliance smoothly, and do not place heavy objects on top of it.
- The unit should not be accessible to child’s play.
Maintenance and cleaning
there is a risk of electric shock and injury. Do not spill water directly on
the refrigerator, to avoid rust, electricity leakage, and accidents. Do not
stretch your hands into the bottom of the refrigerator, since you might be
scratched by sharp metal corners.
Internal cleaning and external cleaning
The food residuals in the refrigerator are liable to produce a bad odor, so
the refrigerator must be cleaned regularly. The fresh food compartment is
usually cleaned once a month. Remove all shelves, crisper box, bottle racks,
cover boards, drawers, etc., and clean them with a soft towel or sponge dipped
in warm water or neutral detergent. Clear off the dust accumulated on the rear
panel and side plates of the refrigerator often.
After using detergent, be sure to rinse it with clean water, and then wipe it
dry. Do not use a bristle brush, steel wire brush, detergent, soap powder,
alkaline detergent, benzene, gasoline, acid, hot water and other corrosive or
soluble items to cleanse the cabinet surface, door gasket, plastic decorative
parts, etc., so as to avoid damage.
Carefully wipe dry the door gasket, clean the groove using a wooden chopstick wrapped with cotton string. After the cleaning, fix the four corners of the door gasket first, and then embed it segment by segment into the door groove.
