Identification of parts

DANGER : Risk of child entrapment.

Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer :

Take off the doors

Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without

supervision.

Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Don’t store or use gasoline or other flammable vapor and liquids in the vicinity of this or

any other appliance.

In the event of an electric short circuit, grounding (earthing) reduces the risk of electric

shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

In order to prevent possible electric shock, this appliance must be grounded

improper use of the grounding plug can result in an electric shock. Consult a qualified

electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely

understood, or if you have doubts on whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Suggestion on food storage

16

Storing foods



Store fresh food in the refrigerator compartment. How food is frozen and thawed is an

important factor in maintaining its freshness and flavor.



Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as bananas, and

melons.



Allow hot food to cool prior to storing, placing hot food in the refrigerator could spoil

other food, and lead to higher electric bills.



When storing the food, cover it with vinyl wrap or store in a container with a lid. This

prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients.



Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circulation of chilled air keeps refrigerator

temperatures even.



Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the refrigerator,

and cause temperatures to rise.



Never keep too many foods in door rack because they may be interrupted by inner

racks so that the door cannot be fully closed.



Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen.



Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrient.



When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on the freezer

shelf, not in the door rack.



Do not touch the cold foods or containers- especially made of metallic -, with wet

hands and place glass products in the freezer compartment.

- That’s why you may have chilblains and they may be broken when their inner matters

are frozen, causing personal injury.



Avoid placing moist food upmost refrigerator shelves, it could freeze upon direct

contact with chilled air.



Always clean food prior to refrigeration. Vegetables and fruits should be washed and

wiped, and packed food should be wiped, to prevent adjacent food from spoiling.



When storing eggs in their storage rack or box, ensure that they are fresh, and always

store them in a up-right position, which keeps them fresh longer.

If you keep the refrigerator in a hot and humid place, frequent openning of the door

Care and maintenance

General information

Cleaning

During average length vacations, you will probably find it best to leave the refrigerator

in operation. Place freezable items in freezer for longer life.

When you plan not to operate, remove all food, disconnect the power cord, clean the

interior thoroughly, and leave each door OPEN to prevent odor formation.

Vacation time

Power failure

If you move

Anti

condensation

pipe

Most power failures that are corrected in an hour or two will not affect your

refrigerator temperatures.

However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off.

Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside the refrigerator.

To avoid damaging the height adjusting screws, turn them all the way into the base.

The outside wall of the refrigerator cabinet may sometimes get warm, especially just

after installation.

Don’t be alarmed. This is due to the anti-condensation pipe, which pumps hot

refrigerator to prevent “sweating” on the outer cabinet wall.

Regular cleaning is recommended. Wash all compartments a baking soda solution or a

mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry.

Please verify that the power cord is not damaged, power plug is not overheated, or

power plug is well inserted into the power consent.

Always remove power cord from the wall outlet prior to cleaning in the vicinity of

electrical parts (lamps, switches, controls, etc.).

Wipe up excess moisture with a sponge or cloth to prevent water or liquid from

getting into any electrical part and causing an electric shock.

Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, coarse abrasive cleaners, strong alkaline

solutions, flammable or toxic cleaning liquids on any surface.

Do not touch frozen surfaces with wet or damp hands, because damp object will stick

or adhere to extremely cold surfaces.

It is important that your refrigerator be kept clean to prevent undesirable odors. Spilled

food should be wiped up immediately, since it may acidify and stain plastic surfaces if

allowed to settle.

Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap or detergent to clean the durable finish of your

refrigerator.

Wipe with a clean damp cloth and then dry.

Trouble shooting

Before calling for service, review this list. It may save you both time and expense.

This list includes common occurrences that are not the result of defective

workmanship or materials in this appliance.

Runing of

refrigerator

Refrigerator

compressor

does not run.

Refrigerator

runs too much

or too long

19

Possible cause

Refrigerator control is off.

Refrigerator is in defrost cycle.

Plug at wall outlet is disconnected.

Power outage. Check house lights.

Refrigerator is larger than the previous

one you owned.

Room or outside weather is hot.

Refrigerator has recently been

disconnected for a period of time.

Large amounts of warm or hot food

may have been stored recently.

Doors are opened too frequently or too

long.

Refrigerator or freezer door may be

slightly open.

Refrigerator control is set too cold.

Refrigerator or freezer gasket is dirty,

worn, cracked, or poorly fitted.

Thermostat is keeping the refrigerator at

a constant temperature.

Solution

Set refrigerator control. See setting the

controls.

This is normal for a fully automatic

defrosting refrigerator. The defrost

cycle occurs periodically.

Make sure plug is tightly pushed into

outlet.

Call local electric company.

This is normal. Larger, more efficient

units run longer in these conditions.

It is normal for the refrigerator to work

longer under these conditions.

It takes some hours for the refrigerator

to cool down completely.

Warm food will cause the refrigerator to

run longer until the desired temperature

is reached.

Warm air entering the refrigerator

causes it to run longer. Open the door

less often.

Make sure the refrigerator is level.

Keep food and containers from

blocking door. See problem section.

OPENING/CLOSING of doors.

Set the refrigerator control to a

warmer setting until the refrigerator

temperature is satisfactory.

Clean or change gasket. Leaks in the

door seal will cause refrigerator to run

longer in order to maintain desired

temperatures.

This is normal. Refrigerator goes on

and

off to keep the temperature constant.

freezer temperature.

Freezer control is set too warm.

Refrigerator control is set too cold.

Meat should be stored at temperature

just below the freezing point of water ( 32 ˚ F,

0 ˚ C) for maximum fresh storage time.

Solution

Set the refrigerator control to a colder

setting.

A refrigerator requires some hours to

cool down completely.

Wait until the refrigerator or freezer

has had a chance to reach its selected

temperature.

Warm air enters the refrigerator/ freezer

whenever the door is opened.

Open the door less often.

Set the freezer control to a colder

setting until the freezer temperature is

satisfactory.

Set the freezer control to a colder

setting until the freezer temperature is

It is normal for ice crystals to form due

to the moisture content of meat.

Set the refrigerator control to a

See above solution.

Set the freezer control to a warmer

setting until the freezer temperature is
