be stabilized by adjusting the adjustable foot.

- Slightly rising the front part of the refrigerator

allow you to close the door very easily.

- When installed on a carpet or floor,please put a

firm mat under the refrigerator otherwise the

bottom part will change colour.

• Keep an appropriate distance between the wall

- To ensure proper air circulation around the

fridge-freezer, please maintain sufficient space on

both the sides as well as top and maintain at least

2 inches (5 cm) from the rear wall.

- A smaller gap will restrict the operation of the

refrigerator, which may result in an increase in

power.

• Installing in a less humid environment

- Do not install the refrigerator in a humid place or

where water can easily be splashed.

- If the refrigerator is installed in a humid

environment,it will go moldy. This will lower

insulation property and cause electricity leakage

• Avoid installing near heat and gas

- High temperature will lower the refrigeration

and increase the power consumption.

- Installing near gas or smoke will change the

surface colour of the refrigerator.

HOW TO USE

7

Initial operation

• Clean the inner part of the refrigerator before using.

• Do not put foods into the refrigerator until it has been plugged in for 3 hours.

Temperature control

• The thermostat used for controlling the temperature inside the refrigerator is located on the top

of the refrigerator.

• The figure on the thermostat does not stand for a practical value.The smaller the figure is,

the higher the temperature inside the refrigerator is.

• Temperature control

* Power failure

If power failure is known in advance,please

• Turn the thermostat to "7" two hours before power failure.

• Place more ice cubes in the refrigerator compartment.

• Do not place anymore food in the refrigerator.

• Do not open the door more than necessary.

• Power failure leads to the rising of the freezing compartment's temperature,this may shorten the

storage of foods and decline the quality.

• If the power supply is off for too long,be sure to get rid of any water or ice underside the drawer

of the freezing compartment before reconnection of the power supply,so as to avoid the foods

and the ice freezing together.

Defrost

As the refrigerator operates, the moisture from foods

or in the air may be frosted on to the inner part of the

re-frigerator and the surface of evaporator.Too thick

frost will affect the operation of the refrigerator, so

regularly defrosting is necessary.Usually,defrosting is

necessary when the thickness reaches 5mm.

• Refrigerator compartment

Defrosts automatically,moisture on the inner side runs

into the drip tray through the drain pipe.The heat

gene-rated by compressor evaporates the water

automatically.

Drain pipe

- keep the drain pipe straight so that water can inpour into the drip tray. When it's blocked,take out

the drain cover,clean it and then replace it.

• Freezing compartment

Before defrosting—turn the thermostat knob to "0",open the door,take out foods and drawers in

the freezing compartment,foods may be put into refrigerator compartment temporarily.

Defrosting—remove the frost on the inner side of the freezing compartment and on the surface of

the evaporator with the ice scraper, then wipe off the water with a dry cloth. After defrost—turn

the thermostat knob to the former position.

Ice making

• Fill the ice tray with water to 4/5 of its

capacity and place it into the freezing

compartment,tum the thermostat knob

to "6".

• Twist the both sides of the ice tray so

as to remove the ice cubes easily.
