§§
ö
Ice T ra y
Fill 3/4 of the ice tray with water, as the volume expands when the water is frozen. Place the tray in the freezer compartment. To release ice cubes, twist the ice tray slightly. Ice cubes will be easier to remove if it is held for a short while under running water.
§§
ö
Movable refrigerator and freezer shelves
Storage shelves should be adjusted depending on the height of the stored. To do this, pull the shelves slightly forward.
§§
ö
Defrost-drain Vessel
Since dust accumulated on the drain case decreases the evaporation efficiency, you should clean the drain case at regular intervals.

METHODS OF SAFE INSTALLATION
1. SAFE INSTALLATION PLACE FOR YOUR REFRIGERATOR
¥ Place the refrigerator on a
strong and level floor. Unstable installation can produce noise and vibration.
¥ Place your refrigerator
where there is no heat source nearby. High atmosphere temperature will lower cooling efficiency and increase your electricity bill.
¥ Place the refrigerator in an
area where the humidity level is lo w. Splashing water on the refrigerator or installing the unit in a humid area may cause short circuit and rust.
¥ Avoid places that are
exposed to coal gas or smoke, or discoloring may occur on the refrigerator.
¥ For good ventilation, k eep
enough space between the sidewalls and your. This helps to cool efficiently and lowers the electricity bill.
¥ Putting the refrigerator on
the carpet may cause temperature rise and result in the discoloring of the carpet due to the compressor heat. In such a case, place a hard wooden board or a rubber mat between the carpet and the unit.

2. INSTALLATION STEPS
¥ Select a safe place to install
your refrigerator.
¥ Level the refrigerator b y
using the adjustable feet.
¥ Install the parts in their own
place.
¥ Check if the doors are
completely closed.
¥ Check the voltage.
Then wait about an hour before plugging the power cord into the outlet.
¥ Put food in the refrigerator
after running the refrigerator for 2~3 hours.

How to Install
Install the refrigerator in a convenient location away from extreme heat and cold. Allow at least 6cm clearance between the refrigerator and side wall so that the door may open for a fully usable interior and the refrigerator may have good air circulation. The refrigerator is not designed for recessed installation.
§ Select a strong and level floor .
§ Keep 6cm of space between the refrigerator
and the walls.
Level the refrigerator so that it rests solidly on the floor without rocking. There are two leveling feet at each front corner. Turn to the left to raise a cor ner, to the right to lower it. Use shims under the rear corners, if necessary.
§ If you want the refrigerator door to close naturally, adjust the leveling feet so that the front of the
refrigerator is raised by 5mm.
§ If you want the refrigerator to remain motionless when open, adjust the leveling feet so that all four
corners are leveled with each other .
NOTE: All packing materials used to ensure safety during transport should be removed. You
must remove the transport safty packing and wipe off any possib le adhesiv e tape residues with a petroleum-based cleaner or similar solvent.

How to operate
1. TEMPERATURE CONTROL
1. Clean the refrigerator thoroughly. Wipe the outside with a dry cloth, and the inside with a damp cloth.
2. Set the temperature control knob at normal position.
3. Connect the power supply cord.
Many factors may influence the internal temperature of the refrigerator and freezer compartments.
§§
ö
The temperature and humidity of the surrounding environment.
§§
ö
The opening frequency of the doors and the amount of warm food placed in the refrigerator .
§§
ö
The combination of food and containers stored in the refrigerator . For these reasons, y ou ma y want to adjust the control to suit the season and y our needs .
To control temperature
Temperature is controlled by thermostat automatically. The Temperature Control inside the refrigerator controls the degree of cooling for each compartment.
Freezer Temperature Contr ol
The control has four settings form LO W to WINTER. The WINTER mode is availab le only if atmosphere temperature is below 10°C.

§§
ö
Turn the temperature control in the refrigerator and freezer compartments toward WINTER for colder temperature and toward MIN f or warmer temperature.
§§
ö
Allow approximately 12 hours or ov ernight for the temper ature to stabilize . Then check to see if further adjustments are necessary.
Disconnect the power supply cord. Remov e icing case and food. Leave doors ajar for ventilation and dehumidification of both compartments.
2. DEFROSTING THE REFRIGERATOR
You will never have to defrost your refrigerator as it is designed to defrost itself completely and automatically.
3. RADIANT HEAT
With the Refrigerating System in operation, it is likely that the cabinet will feel warm at the front edges and sides. This does not indicate trouble. It is due to the hot-line used in this type of Refrigerating System which consists of piping hot gas from the (motor-driven) compressor along the front edges, the sides of the cabinet and the center partition to prevent dewing. This has nothing to do with the storage temperature inside .
(The thick line indicates the hot-line)

CAUTION
To avoid the risk of electric shock or death, unplug the power cord before replacing a burned out light bulb or cleaning the inner parts.
NOTE: During spells of hot, humid weather and in rainy season,
moisture may develop on the cabinet, just as water condenses around a cold glass of water. It is not an abnormal condition; wipe off the moisture with a dry cloth. This can also happen when the refrigerator is not installed in an appropriate place.
