Warning
·Unless recommended by the manufacturer, no mechanical equipment or other means can be adopted to speed up the
defrosting process.
·Unless recommended by the manufacturer, no electrical items can be used in the food compartments.
·The R600a refrigerant and cyclopentane foaming materials used in this refrigerator are all flammable materials, so the
discarded old refrigerators should be isolated from any fire, with disposal by burning forbidden.
Your new refrigerator
· Before using a new refrigerator, remove all packaging materials, including the bottom pad, as well as the foam pads and
adhesive tape in the refrigerator;
·Use damp cloth to clean the refrigerator inside and outside (A small amount of detergent can be added in the warm water
and finally clean water should be used to clean the refrigerator);
·A separate socket with two poles grounded must be prepared, and it is forbidden to share the same multipurpose socket with
other appliances;
·Please be sure to connect the grounding wire well. The socket should have its grounding electrode reliably grounded.
Make sure that the refrigerator is correctly and steadily placed, and that all safety precautions are clearly
understood.
1. Power on
BEFORE SWITCHING THE APPLIANCE ON ALLOW IT TOSTANDINSITUFORAMINIMUMOF12HOURS
After power on, the refrigerator will automatically enter the factory default status.
2. Adding food to the refrigerator
Recommended: Allow the fridge to work for a period of time and the required temperature to be reached or the compressor
has stopped working for the first time, and then add the food into the refrigerator, which is conducive to the first food
preservation.
Tips: When the temperature s etting is changed or new food is added, the
refrigerator needs a period of time to have its internal temperature balanced. The
time length depends on the change of the temperature setting, the ambient
temperature, the door-opening frequency and the a mount of stored food, etc.
Transport and placement
Transport
· Do not have the refrigerator upside down, horizontally placed, squeezed or shaken. When moving the fridge, do not tilt the
product more than a 45 degree angle.
· When moving, do not use excessive pressure on the door or top cover to avoid deformation.
·The refrigerator can be drawn slightly backwards (no more than 20 degrees), so that it can be moved a short distance with
rear casters rolling.
Placement
·Place the refrigerator in a well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat and direct sunlight. Do not keep it close to damp or wet
areas, to prevent rusting or the insulation weakening.
·The top space should be no less than 30cm. Distance against two sides and back should be no less than 10cm away from the
walls to facilitate the door opening and closing, and to disperse the heat.
·Placed the refrigerator on a flat and solid ground. (If not, it can be levelled by adjusting the levelling toes)
Note
The power line should not be compressed by the refrigerator or other objects, to avoid any accident due to damage of the
power line.
Before connecting to the power source, please carefully check whether the refrigerator has its voltage range identical to the
power supply.

If the above items have been checked but there is no improvement, please contact the Caple after-sales service department of this
company.
If damaged, the power cord must be replaced by the servicemen designated by this company to avoid potential dangers.
Non-fault Phenomenon
The refrigerant liquid in the capillary tubes of the refrigerator flows at a high speed, and sometimes there may be a few air bubbles
inside. Therefore, some irregular noises will be produced at the exit. When the refrigerator is in rapid refrigeration, the wind noise will
be heard when the refrigerator door is opened, and that is the sound of the high-speed fan.
If the air is much too humid, the refrigerator door may be wetted around, and dry cloth can be used to wipe it.
