Tips for special needs
Moving the refrigerator/freezer
•Location
Do not place your refrigerator/freezer near a heat
source, e.g. cooker, boiler or radiator. Avoid it from
direct sunlight in out-buildings or sun lounges.
•Leveling
Make sure to level your refrigerator/freezer using
the front leveling feet. If not level, the refrigerator/
freezer door gasket sealing performance will be
affected, or even it may lead to the operating
failure of your refrigerator/freezer.
After locating the refrigerator/freezer in position,
wait for 4 hours before using it, so as to allow the
refrigerant to settle.
•Installation
Do not cover or block the vents or grilles of your
appliance.
When you are out for a long time
• If the appliance will not be used for several
months, turn it off first, and then unplug the plug
from the wall outlet.
• Take out all foods.
• Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To
prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door
ajar: block it open or have the door removed if
necessary.
• Keep the cleaned appliance in a dry, ventilated
place and away from the heat source, place the
appliance smoothly, and do not place heavy
objects on top of it.
• The unit should not be accessible to child’s play.
Maintenance and cleaning
Before cleaning, unplug the power plug first;
Do not plug in or plug out the plug with wet hand,
because there is a risk of electric shock and injury.
Do not spill water directly on the refrigerator, to
avoid rust, electricity leakage and accidents. Do
not stretch your hands into the bottom of the
refrigerator, since you might be scratched by
sharp metal corners.
Internal cleaning and external cleaning
The food residuals in the refrigerator are liable to
produce bad odor, so the refrigerator must be
cleaned regularly. The fresh food compartment is
usually cleaned once a month.
Remove all shelves, crisper box, bottle racks, cover
board, and drawers etc., and clean them with a soft
towel or sponge dipped in warm water or neutral
detergent.
Clear off the dusts accumulated on the rear panel
and side plates of the refrigerator often.
After using detergent, be sure to rinse it with clean
water, and then wipe it dry.
Do not use bristle brush, steel wire brush,
detergent, soap powder, alkaline detergent,
benzene, gasoline, acid, hot water and other
corrosive or soluble items to cleanse the cabinet
surface, door gasket, plastic decorative parts,
etc., so as to avoid damage.
Carefully wipe dry the door gasket, clean the
groove using a wooden chopstick wrapped with
cotton string. After the cleaning, fix the four
corners of the door gasket first, and then embed it
segment by segment into the door groove.
Interruption of power supply or failure of the
refrigerating system
•Take care of the frozen foods in the event of an
extended non-running of the refrigerating
appliance (such as interruption of power supply
or failure of the refrigerating system).
•Try to open the refrigerator door as less as
possible, in this way can food safely and freshly
kept for hours even in hot summer.
•If you get the power outage notice in advance:
1) Adjust the thermostat knob to the high mode
an hour in advance; so that foods get fully
frozen (Do not store new food during this
time!). Restore the temperature mode to the
original setting when power supply becomes
normal in a timely manner.
2) You can also make ice with a watertight
container, and put it in the upper part of the
freezer, so as to extend the time for fresh food
to be stored.
Note: Once the refrigerator is used, you’d
better use it continuously; and under normal
circumstance, do not stop its use, so as not to
affect the service life.
Defrosting
After a period of use, a thin layer of frost will be
formed on the freezer compartment inner wall (or
evaporator) surface, which may affect the
refrigeration effect if exceeding 5mm in thickness.
In such case, you need to gently scrape the frost
off using an ice scraper rather than the metal or
sharp hardware. Frosts need to be cleared off
every 3 months or so, and if the normal use of
drawers and normal access of foods are affected
by frosting, make sure to remove the frosts in a
