3. PRODUCT OVERVIEW

*All images in this instruction manual are for indication only; please refer to your individual unit for details.

4. OPERATION

4.1 Switching On Your Unit

• The temperature selector knob is located on the middle of the upper beam.
  Setting “Min” : Less Cool Temperature
  Setting “Med” : Normal Operation (adequate for most situations)
  Setting “Max” : Coolest Temperature

• During high ambient temperatures e.g. on hot summer days. It may be necessary to set the thermostat to the Coolest setting (position “Max”).This may cause the compressor running continuously in order to maintain a low temperature in the cabinet.

• For the first time you install your refrigerator, set the thermostat knob at “Med”. Give your refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. It is the best to wait 24 hours before adding food. The thermostat knob controls the temperature.

4.2 Noise Inside the Unit!

You may notice that your unit makes some unusual noises. Most of these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them!
These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the performance of your unit. This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.

4.3 Tips for Keeping Food in the Unit

• Cooked meats/fishes should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats/fishes to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats/fishes in a container which is large enough to collect juices and cover it properly. Place the container on the lowest shelf.
• Leave space around your food, to allow air to circulate inside the unit. Ensure all parts of the unit are kept cool.
• To prevent transfer of favours and drying out, pack or cover the food separately. Fruit and vegetables do not need to be wrapped.
• Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put in the unit. This will help to maintain the internal temperature of the unit.
• To prevent cold air escaping from the unit, try to limit the number of times you open the door. We recommend that you only open the door when you need to put food in or take food out.

5. CLEANING

5.1 Defrosting

Auto-defrost for Frost-free Refrigerator

5.2 Cleaning the Interior and the Exterior of the Unit

• Remove all the shelves and the salad bin. To remove the salad bin first remove the lower door shelf.
• Wipe the inside of the unit with a weak solution of bicarbonate soda and then rinse with warm water using a “wrung-out” sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before replacing the shelves and salad bin.
• Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior, and then wipe with a standard furniture polish. Make sure that the door is closed to avoid the polish getting on the magnetic door seal or inside the unit.
• The grille of the condenser at the back of the unit and the adjacent components can be vacuumed using a soft brush attachment.
• Dusts behind the refrigerator and on the ground shall be timely cleaned to improve the cooling effect and energy saving.
• The interior of the refrigerator should be cleaned regularly to avoid odor.
• Check the door gasket regularly to make sure there are no debris.
• Clean the door gasket with mild soap and water.
• Please turn off the power before cleaning, remove all food, shelves, drawers, etc.

• For areas that are difficult to clean in the refrigerator (such as narrow sandwiches, gaps or corners), it is recommended to wipe them regularly with a so rag, so brush, etc. and when necessary, combined with some auxiliary tools (such as thin sticks) to ensure no contaminant accumulation in these areas.
• Do not use soap, detergent, scrub powder, spray cleaner, etc., as these may cause odors in the interior of the refrigerator.
• Clean the bottle frame, shelves and drawers with a mild detergent and dry with a so cloth. Wipe the outer surface of the refrigerator with a so cloth dampened with soapy water, detergent, etc., and then wipe dry.
• Do not use hard brushes, clean steel balls, wire brushes, abrasives, such as toothpastes, organic solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, banana oil, etc.), boiling water, acid or alkaline items clean refrigerator considering that this may damage the fridge surface and interior. Boiling water and benzene may deform or damage plastic parts.
• Do not rinse with water so as not to affect the electrical insulation propertie

5.3 Cleaning Tips

6.3 Switching Of for Long Periods of Time

When the unit is not in use for a long period of me, disconnect it from the mains supply, empty all food and clean the appliance, leaving the door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.

7. Trouble shooting

The following simple issues can be handled by the user. Please call the after- sale service department if the issues are not settled.

Inoperation| Whether the freezer is plugged and connected to power; Low voltage;
Failure power or tripping circuit
---|---
Odor| Odorous foods should closely wrapped;
Whether foods are rotten;
Whether the interior shall be cleaned.
Long-term operation of compressor| It is normal that refrigerator operates for longer time in summer when the ambient temperature is higher;
Do not put too much food in the freezer at one time;
Do not put foods until they are cooled;
Frequent opening of refrigerator door.
Illuminating light does not shine| Whether the refrigerator is connected to power, whether the illuminating light is damaged.
The refrigerator door can not be properly closed.| The freezer door is stuck by food packages;
Too much food;
Tilt refrigerator.
Loud noises| Whether the food is leveled, whether the refrigerator is balanced;
Whether the refrigerator parts are properly placed.

7.1 Warm tips:

• The refrigerator enclosure may emit heat during operation specially in summer, this is caused by the radiation of the condenser, and it is a normal phenomenon.
• Condensation: condensation phenomenon will be detected on the exterior surface and door seals of the freezer when the ambient humidity is large, this is a normal phenomenon, and the condensation can be wiped away with a dry towel.
• Buzz: Buzz will be generated by running compressor specially when star ng up or shutting down.

8. TIPS FOR ENERGY SAVING

Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is wet and hot. Once you open the door, close it as soon as possible.
Every now and then check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated (adequate air circulation behind the appliance).
In normal temperature conditions, please arrange the thermostat at the middle setting.
Before loading the appliance with packages of fresh food, make sure they are cooled to ambient temperature.
Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, so clean the appliance as soon as the layer is 3-5 mm thick.
If it is the outer condenser, the rear wall should be always clean free of dust or any impurities.

• The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing 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 appliance.
• Appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. 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.

9. DISPOSAL

Old units still have some residual value. An environmentally friendly method of disposal will ensure that valuable raw materials can be recovered and used again. The refrigerant used in your unit and insulation materials require special disposal procedures. Ensure that none of the pipes on the back of the unit are damaged prior to disposal. Up to date information concerning options of disposing of your old unit and packaging from the new one can be obtained from your local council office.
When disposing of an old unit break of any old locks or latches and remove the door as a safeguard.
