Note

Recommended storage areas for various foods As cold air circulates inside the refrigerator, there is temperature difference inside the fridge storage compartment. Different foods should be placed in different areas according to their properties.

Eggs, butter, cheese and etc. Drinks, canned food and etc. Seasonings and pickled food Beverages, canned food, cake, etc. Wine, champagne, etc. Milk, cheese, etc Cooked meat, fresh fish and meat, etc. Fruit, vegetables, salad, etc.

Otherwise it may fall or the food on it may dump.

Lamp in the fridge storage compartment and its replacement

Parameters of the lamp: 12V, max 5W(the power depends on the model). The lamp adopts LED as its light source, featuring low energy consumption and long service life. If there is any abnormality, please contact the after-sales service personnel.

Fridge storage precautions

Hot foods must be cooled to room temperature before storing in the refrigerator.

Food to be stored should be properly sealed. This will prevent moisture in the food from evaporating and prevent them from spoiling.

Do not store excess quantities of food. Food should be stored with spaces in between them. This allows cold air to flow smoothly and therefore obtain better storage results.

Clean the food and dry any droplets on it before placing in the refrigerator.

Sorted storage of food. Food to be stored should be sorted according to their category. Food consumed daily should be placed on the front part of the shelves. This can avoid unnecessary delays in door opening as well as expiration of the storage period because you forgot to eat it.

Do not place the food too near to the inner walls. Do not store foods with high moisture content clinging to the inner walls. Otherwise they may freeze to the walls. Place food a little away from the inner walls.

Avoiding food (especially oil food) contact with the inner liner directly, as oil can erode the inner liner. So it's better to clean the oily dirt whenever it is found.

Note

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.

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.

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.

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.

Freezer storage precautions

Hot food should not be stored in the refrigerator until it has cooled down to room temperature

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.

Food cut into small portions will freeze faster and be easier to defrost and cook. The recommended weight for each portion is less than 2.5kg.

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.

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”.)

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 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.
