OPERATING THE APPLIANCE

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

• Your refrigerator has only one control for regulating the temperature. The temperature control is located on the top of the refrigerator inside.
• To control the internal temperature, adjust the control knob according to the ambient temperature or purpose of use.
• The range of the temperature control is from position “0” to “3”.

INSTRUCTION FOR USE

• Position your refrigerator so that the plug is accessible.
• Keep your refrigerator out of direct sunlight.
• Do not place next to heat generating appliance.
• Do not place directly on the ground. Provide suitable stand

IMPORTANT

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

POWER SUPPLY

• The refrigerator must be connected to a properly earthed socket in line with relevant valid country regulations before operating;
• Check the data label (which is on the side of the refrigerator) for voltage and frequency corresponds to your local one; If not, don’t plug your cable into the socket;

INSTALLATION

When install 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 wall and refrigerator side should be at least 20mm.
• The bottom should be left at least 50mm for air flowing air passing through must not be preheated.
• 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.

All the hinge can be used for left or right swing,except for model BCH-40 and BCH42,please find an additional left upper hinge in the bag of the user manual for installation as below.

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

ENERGY SAVING AND ECOLOGICAL PROTECTION

Please pay attention to the following special instructions for saving energy and ecological protection:

• MB-36G is intended to be used exclusively for the pantry, and it’s not suitable for storing food.
• MB-36B is intended to be used exclusively for the cellar.
• These refrigerating appliances are not suitable for the freezing foodstuffs.
• The pantry MB-36G is recommended to be designed at 17ºC. While the cellar MB-36B is recommended to be designed at 12ºC.
• The shelves placed in factory mode is the most efficient use of energy for the refrigerating appliances.
• The following combination of shelves is recommended for energy to be used as efficiently as possible by the refrigeration unit. There is one shelf inside cabinet in total.

MB-36G

MB-36B

• When the surrounding temperature is 25ºC and MB-36G has no load, it will take around 30 minutes to decrease the pantry ’s temperature from 25ºC to 17ºC.
  When the surrounding temperature is 25ºC and the wine cooler MB-36B has no load, it will take around 30 minutes to increase the wine cooler’s temperature from 25ºC to 12ºC

• MB-36G is recommended to be designed at 17ºC. The energy consumption is 90kWh/year. If the setting temperature is higher than 17ºC, the energy consumption will be lower. If the setting temperature is lower than 17ºC, the energy consumption will be higher.

• MB-36B is recommended to be designed at 12ºC.The energy consumption is 125kWh/year. If the setting temperature is higher than 12ºC, the energy consumption will be lower. If the setting temperature is lower than 12ºC, the energy consumption will be higher.

• MB-36G will be auto-defrost for 20 minutes in every 24 hours. While MB36B will be auto-defrost for 60 minutes in every 36 hours

• The refrigerator should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.

• Overloading the refrigerator forces the thermoelectric cooling system to run longer.

• Reduce door openings and extended searches, remove as many item as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.

• One characteristic of heat-pipe units is the length of time it requires to recover from having the door opened and shut frequently. It may be necessary to wait longer for the temperature to return to its former level once the door has been opened for too long. This is normal for the type of unit.

• Heat-pipe technology costs just pennies to operate. It is environmentally friendly due to the lack of CFC’s.
