Product Usage Instructions

Leveling Feet
To avoid vibration, the unit must be leveled. If required, adjust the leveling screws to compensate for the uneven floor. The front should be slightly higher than the rear to aid in door closing. Leveling screws can be turned easily by tipping the cabinet slightly. Turn the leveling screws counterclockwise to raise the unit, clockwise to lower it.

Leveling Doors
When leveling doors, ensure proper alignment using hinge grommets and fastener rings. The number of fasten-rings you will need to insert depends on the gap. Use pliers to adjust as necessary.

Moving the Appliance

  1. Remove all food from inside the appliance.
  2. Pull the power plug out, insert and fix it into the power plug hook at the rear or on top of the appliance.
  3. Tape parts such as shelves and the door handle to prevent them from falling off while moving the appliance.
  4. Move the appliance with more than two people carefully. When transporting the appliance over a long distance, keep the appliance upright.
  5. After installing the appliance, connect the power plug to a socket to switch on the appliance.

Changing the light
Any replacement or maintenance of the LED lamps is intended to be made by the manufacturer, its service agent, or a similarly qualified person.

ATTENTION
This product contains a light source of energy efficiency class (G).

Connecting the appliance
After installing the appliance, connect the power plug into a socket outlet.

ATTENTION
After connecting the power supply cord (or plug) to the outlet, wait 2 or 3 hours before you put food into the appliance. If you add food before the appliance has cooled completely, your food may spoil.

Tips for energy saving

  • Do not place the appliance near cookers, radiators or other heat sources. If the ambient temperature is high, the compressor will run more frequently and for longer, resulting in increased energy consumption.
  • Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation at the base of the appliance, on the sides of the appliance and at the back of the appliance. Never cover ventilation openings.
  • Please also observe the spacing dimensions in the chapter “Installation”.
  • The arrangement of drawers, shelves and racks as shown in the illustration offers the most efficient use of energy and should therefore be retained as far as possible. All drawers and shelves should remain in the appliance to keep the temperature stable and save energy.
  • To obtain a larger storage space (e.g. for large refrigerated/frozen goods), the middle drawers can be removed. The top and bottom drawers and shelves should be removed last if necessary.
  • An evenly filled refrigerator/freezer compartment contributes to optimal energy use. Therefore, avoid empty or half-empty compartments.
  • Allow warm food to cool before placing it in the refrigerator/freezer. Food that has already cooled down increases energy efficiency.
  • Allow frozen food to defrost in the refrigerator. The coldness of the frozen food reduces the energy consumption in the refrigerator compartment and thus increases the energy efficiency.
  • Open the door only as briefly as necessary to minimise cold loss. Opening the door briefly and closing it properly reduces energy consumption.
  • Setting the temperature no colder than necessary contributes to optimal energy use. The optimum temperature in the refrigerator is +7°C. It should be measured as far forward as possible in the top compartment of refrigerators.
  • The door seals of your appliance must be perfectly intact so that the doors close properly and energy consumption is not increased unnecessarily.

Tips on storing food

Freezer compartment

  • The freezer is designated for the storage of food frozen at very low temperatures, long-term storage of frozen food, and for the production of ice.
  • Only use the shelves in the door of the freezer to store frozen food, not for storing hot food designated for freezing.
  • Do not put fresh and frozen food next to each other. The frozen food may thaw.
  • When freezing fresh food (such as meat, fish or chopped meat), cut them into parts that can be used at the same time.
  • Storing frozen food: instructions are usually stated on the packages, which must be followed. If there is no information on the packaging, food should not be stored for longer than three months from the date of purchase.
  • When purchasing frozen food, make sure that it was frozen at a suitable temperature and that the packaging is not damaged.
  • Frozen food should be kept in suitable packages to retain its quality and should be returned to the freezer compartment as soon as possible.
  • If a package of frozen food shows moisture or abnormal bulging, it is probable that it was stored at the wrong temperature and the content is spoiled.
  • The storage period for frozen food depends on the room temperature, the thermostat setting, the frequency of opening the door of the freezer, the type of food, and the time of transporting the product from the shop to the household.

Always follow the instructions printed on the packaging and never exceed the maximum storage time stated on the package.

Cooling compartment

  • To reduce moisture and subsequent ice build-up, never put liquid into the refrigerator in unsealed containers. Frost tends to concentrate in the coolest parts of the evaporator. Storing uncovered liquids results in a more frequent need for defrosting.
  • Never put warm foods in the refrigerator. These should first cool down at room temperature and then be placed to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator.
  • Foods or food containers should not touch the back wall of the refrigerator because they could freeze to the wall. Do not keep regularly opening the door of the refrigerator.
  • Meat and clean fish (packed in a package or plastic foil) can be placed in the refrigerator, which can be used in 1–2 days.
  • Fruit and vegetables without packaging can be placed in the part designated for fresh fruit and vegetables.

Recommended Temperature
The optimal temperature setting for food storage:

  • Fridge: 4 °C
  • Freezer: -18 °C

ATTENTION
The optimal temperature setting of each compartment depends on the ambient temperature. The above optimal temperature is based on the ambient temperature of 25 °C.

• Check whether the voltage is too low
• Check whether there is a power failure or partial circuits have tripped

Odor

| • Odorous foods shall be tightly wrapped
• Check whether there is any rotten food
• Clean the inside of the refrigerator

Long-time operation of the compressor

| • Long operation of the refrigerator is normal in summer
• when the ambient temperature is high It is not suggestible having too much food in the appliance at the same time
• Food shall get cool before being put into the appliance
• The doors are opened too frequently

Light fails to get lit

• The refrigerator is tilted.

Loud noises

| • Check whether the floor is level and whether the refrigerator is placed stably
• Check whether accessories are placed at proper locations
Door seal fails to be tight| • Remove foreign matters on the door seal
---|---
• Heat the door seal and then cool it for restoration (or blow it with an electrical drier or use a hot towel for heating)
Water pan overflows| • There is too much food in the chamber or food stored contains too much water, resulting in heavy defrosting
• The doors are not closed properly, resulting in frosting due to the entry of air and increased water due to defrosting
Hot housing| • Heat dissipation of the built-in condenser via the housing, which is normal when housing becomes hot due to high ambient temperature, storage of too much food, or shutdown of the compressor is shut down, provide sound ventilation to facilitate heat dissipation
Surface condensation| • Condensation on the exterior surface and door seals of the refrigerator is normal when the ambient humidity is too high. Just wipe the condensate with a clean towel.
