Install the appliance in a dry place. The appliance will get rusted and have a poor insulation if in a place with humidity or water for a long time. Do not install the appliance in the outside place where rain can reach.

Do not place the appliance under sunshine or near heating sources. It will increase the power consumption and decrease plastic parts or surface coatings life.

The appliance should have some distance from circumferences for good ventilation, heat radiation and power consumption decreasing

Usage at the first time

Place the appliance according to the installing requirements. Open the door for air ventilating.

Clean the inner cabinet before using

After installing the appliance, wait for 30 minutes at least before switching on the appliance. ( During transportation the oil in the compressor may have flowed into the refrigeration system.) At the beginning, the cabinet is hot and the compressor will work for a long time and then stopped by the thermostat at the set temperature. At that time, the compressor can works and stops regularly. Recommend to put goods into the cabinet when the cabinet temperature reaches the set temperature.

Thermostat

The freezer has double functions of cold storage and freezing, and the temperature can be adjusted by the temperature control knob of the control panel. When the temperature control knob is within the range of “refrigerate”, the freezer is cold storage function, and the temperature range is – 2 ~ + 12 .When the temperature control knob is in the range of “freeze”, the freezer is a freezing function, and the temperature range is-12 ~-26 . Turning clockwise, the stronger the cooling degree, the longer the continuous operation time of the compressor; otherwise, turning counterclockwise, the weaker the cooling degree, the shorter the continuous operation time of the compressor. When the temperature control knob is within the range of “fast freeze”, the freezer is the strong cooling function. The temperature will be kept below – 20 , and the compressor will be forced to operate continuously. Under normal use, it is not necessary to adjust this section to achieve energy-saving effect. If you want to use this function, please do not exceed 2 hours. After use, you must remove it to avoid compressor damage caused by long-term operation. Please adjust the temperature control knob according to the local climate requirements to achieve the power saving effect and extend the service life of the compressor

General knowledge for usage

Keep some spaces between stored goods. It do good for cooling air circulating and heat exchange and a better cooling effect will be achieved

For hot food, hold it cooled and then put into the appliance. If put it in hot status, it will decrease the cooling level of the goods nearby

Put labels marked time onto the goods. The goods stored early should be taken out early

When switching off or a power cut, must restart after 5 minutes minimum. Or it will shorten the compressor life or even damage the compressor

Seal the food by fresh kept bags or closed container to avoid smell-mixed or dry.

Open the door as briefly as possible. Make sure the door closed wholly to save power consumption

Set different cooling temperatures according to different goods. Too low cooling btemperature will waste power consumption

If know a power cut in advance, set the thermostat for a low temperature and keep the appliance cooling for some time. And open the door as briefly as possible. When power is cut, try not to open the door and do not add goods into the appliance.

Cleaning and maintaining the appliance

Regular cleaning and maintaining can prolong the life of the appliance and increase the cooling
efficiency. Plug out before cleaning or maintaining

Clean the inner cabinet and outer shell in soft clothes with neutral agent & warm water. Do not use hot water, corrosive cleaning agents or organic agent .

After maintaining, check the below points to make sure safety.

1. If the connection is good between the plug and the socket?
2. If the plug is hot abnormally?
3. If there is any cranny or nick on the cord?

Clean the door seal by a bleacher which diluted by 10 times water. Then remove the remains by clear water.

Before stopping for a long time, the appliance should be switched off, plugged out, cleaned wholly and dried for some days .

Defrosting

Moisture in goods and air will change into frost on the low temperature surface of the evaporator ( the inner surface of the cabinet). The frost will decrease the cooling effect. If the frost thickness reaches 5 ~ 7mm, defrosting should be carried out.

1. Switch off and plug out, and take out all the stored goods.
2. Open the door, and remove the frost by a special defrosting shovel when the frost gets soft.
3. Open the drain hole on the bottom, and open the drain cover on the outer shell. The frost water will go out through the drain pipe.
4. Wipe off all the frost water, then plug in and switch on the appliance. When the cabinet temperature reaches the set temperature, put the goods back.

Faults and diagnosing

Non-fault instances

• When the ambient temperature is to high or opening the door very rarely, there is frost on the door frame and door seal. Just wipe off the frost water.
• The appliance has a sound like water current or water boiling. The refrigerant goes trough the pipe to cause this sound.
• The compressor and the condenser are hot when working.
• The compressor works for a long time if too many goods put inside.
• The compressor works for a long time if the ambient temperature is high in summer.

Attention

If a problem can not be handled according to the instruction manual, please contact the Service Dept soon. Do not try to repair the appliance by yourselves
