Tips on food storage in the fridge storage compartment

For turnip radish and other similar vegetables, please cut off their leaves before storage so as to prevent the nutrition from being absorbed by the leaves.

Defreeze frozen food in the fridge storage compartment. In this way you can use the frozen food to decrease the temperature in the compartment and save energy.

Some vegetables, for example, onion, garlic, ginger, water chestnut, and other rhizomatic foods, can be stored for long periods at normal temperature. There is no need to store them in the refrigerator.

The metabolism of vegetable marrow, melons, pawpaw, banana, pineapple can be quickened in the refrigerator, so it is not suitable to store them in the fridge storage compartment. But storing green fruits in the refrigerator for certain periods can promote its maturing.

	is less than 2.5kg.

It's better to pack food before putting it in the freezer. The outside of the packing must be dry to avoid bags sticking together. Packing materials should be odor-free, airtight, non-poisonous and nontoxic.

In order to avoid expiration of storage period, please note the freezing date, time limit and name of the food on the packing according to the storage periods of different foods.

D M Y

DMY

Only take the required amount of food from the freezer. Defrosted food cannot be re-frozen unless it is first cooked, otherwise it may be less edible.

Do not load excessive quantities of fresh food in the freezer. It is better to refer to the cooling capacity of the refrigerator. (See “Technical data”.)

When the room temperature is high, the freezer temperature can be set into the lowest temperature setting directly so as to get the best freezing effect.

21

Icemaker use instructions (only on models with an icemaker)

Preparations before using the icemaker

Cut the water pipe to desired length while ensuring it free from excessive bend. Generally its total length is not more than 5m. Excessive longer pipe may reduce water pressure and, as a result, the water output flow-rate and ice-making capacity;

The water pipe should be away from any heat sources as it is not heat-resistant;

The water pipe should be installed and tested by authorized professional personnel;

The icemaker should be connected to a water source of a pressure between 1.5bar and 7bar;

Cleaning the ice cube tray

Deactivate the ice machine function from the display panel,take out the icemaker assembly from the refrigerator. Turn the icemaker over and you can see the ice cube tray.

Pull the elliptical fastener of the icemaker in direction .

Take out the ice cube tray in direction .

After cleaning, install it back in reversed direction,push the ice machine firmly, close the freezing door, and activate the ice machine function from the display panel.

Precautions

Never install the icemaker's water tube in an area with the ambient temperature below 0 to avoid icing of water in it.

The icemaker will start ice cube making when the internal temperature reaches or is below - 12 . (If the icemaker is used for the first time or after an extended period of vacation, the first loads of cubed ices should be discarded as there are impurities in the water tube)

After the appliance is located, the water tube should be properly arranged to prevent it from being crushed.

Installation of the icemaker can only be carried out by an authorized service agent. This icemaker can only be supplied with drinking water.

Operating principle of the icemaker

8 cubed ices are made in every cycle. The ice making capacity depends on ambient temperature, door-opening frequency, water pressure, freezer temperature and other conditions. To ensure that the storage box is fully filled with cubed ices, arrange the cubed ices in the drawer frequently.

As the icemaker makes 8 cubed ices in one cycle, it is normal that some of them stick to each other (This can be improved by decreasing water supply duration).

For a newly installed refrigerator, please let the appliance operate for 24 hours before making ice.

Note

If this is your first icemaker

Some “crack” sound may be heard in the process of ice making. Don't worry, it's normal.

If you do not use cubed ices frequently

Cubed ices stored for an extended period may become opaque or emit a strange odor. Please empty the cubed ice storage box regularly and clean it with warm water. Before putting the box back, make sure to cool it down and to dry it under soft sunshine. Otherwise cubed ices may stick on the box.

If you do not want to use the cubed ice storage box for an extended period

Please take out all the cubed ices from the storage box and wash the box with warm water. Wipe the box with a dry towel before replacing it to the appliance. After that, turn off the valve between the water source and the appliance.

In order to obtain a larger available space of freezer storage compartment, the icemaker assembly can be taken out and kept outside separately.

Defrosting ·Cleaning

Defrosting the freezer

The freezer defrosts automatically. No manual operation is needed.

Cleaning

The refrigerator should be cleaned regularly to prevent bad stored food odors.

For safety, unplug the power cord before cleaning the refrigerator.

Clean the refrigerator with a soft cloth or sponge with warm water (can be added with mild detergent).

Dry water droplets on the refrigerator surfaces with a dry cloth.

Use of the cleaning filter (on some models)

The design service life is from 5 to 6 years. But as the kind and concentration of odors in each refrigerator is uncertain due to different operation condition and environment, we recommend you to set the replacement cycle within 3 years.

After prolonged use, you can put it under sunshine for 30 minutes to recover the deodorization effect. To clean, please use slow water flow.

The refrigerator is very heavy. When you are moving it for cleaning or repairs, take care not to damage the floor. Keep the refrigerator upright during moving. Do not move the refrigerator by rocking it to avoid damage to the floor.

Do not spray or flush the refrigerator with water to avoid impact on its electrical insulation property.

Do not clean with hard brush, wire brush, detergent powder, gasoline, amyl acetate, acetone and similar organic solutions, warm water or acid or alkaline

Note

solutions. Please clean with special refrigerator detergent to avoid damage.

Do not touch the cold iron parts with wet hands, otherwise your skin may stick on the cold iron parts.

When cleaning, do not clean the cold glass shelves with warm water. Otherwise the glass may break due to sudden temperature change and cause personal injury or property loss.

Always keep the door gasket clean.

23

Stopping use

Measures on power interruption

Even in summer, food may be stored in the refrigerator for a few hours after a power interruption. If a power interruption occurs, please call the power company to ask about the interruption duration.

Do not put additional food into the refrigerator during a power interruption and try to open the door as few times as possible.

If prior notice of a power interruption is given and the interruption duration is over 24hrs, make some ice and put it in a container in the top of the fridge storage compartment.

As temperature in the refrigerator will rise during a power interruption or other failures, the storage period and edible quality of food will be reduced.

Note

Stopping use

If the refrigerator will not be used for an extended period, please unplug the power cord, disconnect the water source, and clean it with the method described above.

Keep the refrigerator door open to prevent any food remaining in the compartment from producing bad odors.

To ensure the service life of the refrigerator, it is recommended that the refrigerator

not be turned off unless it is necessary.

Note

Before leaving for a vacation

If leaving on an extended vacation, please disconnect the power and water source. remove any food, wait for the frost to melt. Afterwards, clean and dry the interior, and keep the door open to prevent any food remaining in the compartment from producing bad odors. If the room temperature is expected drop below 0 , please ask a qualified service person to drain the water in the water supply system. Otherwise serious property loss may be caused due to overflow of water if the water pipe or joint breaks.

Moving the refrigerator

Unplug the refrigerator.

Remove all food.

Secure the shelves and crisper in the fridge storage compartment as well as the shelves and other movable parts in the freezer with adhesive tape.

Close the door and secure with adhesive tape.

Do not tilt the refrigerator more than 45 degrees (angle to vertical) to avoid damaging the refrigerating system.

Do not move the refrigerator by its handle to avoid property damage or personal injury.

Never place the refrigerating horizontally down.
