“just a few days”. If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the instructions below to help
preventInstallation
Before installing, follow these important first steps.
Location
Position the appliance away from sources of heat such as stoves, radiators, direct sunlight, etc. Maximum performance and safety are guaranteed by maintaining the correct indoor temperature for the class of unit concerned, as specified on the rating plate. This appliance performs well from 12.8 to 43.3 (55~110 ). The Appliance may not work properly if it is left for a longer period at a temperature above or below the indicated range.
! IMPORTANT !
There is a need of good ventilation around the fridge for easy dissipation of heat, high efficiency of refrigeration and low power consumption. For this

Before you throw away your old refrigerator:
●Remove doors.
●Leave shelves in place so children may not easily climb inside.
●Have refrigerant removed by a qualified service technician.
purpose, sufficient clear space should be available around the fridge. It
is advisable for there to be 75 mm (approx. 3 inches) separating the back of the fridge to the wall, at least 100 mm (approx. 4 inches) of space at its two sides, and a minimum of 100 mm (approx. 4 inches) from its top and a clear space upfront to allow the doors to open 160°. Appliances must not be exposed to rain. Sufficient air must be allowed to circulate in the lower rear section of appliances, as poor air circulation can affect performance.
Cleaning
●Wash any removable parts of the refrigerator interior, and exterior with mild detergent and warm water. Wipe dry. Do not use harsh cleaners on these surfaces.
●Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments, which can

Temperature Control
Insert the plug of the connection lead into an outlet with protective earth contact.
The temperature selector knob is located on the side of the freezer compartment.
Setting 0 means:
Turning the temperature control to "0" position stops the cooling cycle, but does not shut off the power to the refrigerator.
Turn the knob clockwise to turn the refrigerating uint on. Coldest setting is all the way to highest number. The unit operates automatically at the set position.If the unit is unplugged, power lost, or turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit.

Setting 8 (end-stop) means:
Lowest temperature, coldest setting.
! IMPORTANT !
Normally we advise you select setting of 3 or 4, if you want the temperature warmer or colder please turn the knob to lower or higher setting accordingly.
Though the unit is energy efficient, it is more efficient at lower position settings.
! IMPORTANT !
High ambient temperatures (e.g. on hot summer days) and a cold setting on the temperature regulator (position7 to 8) can cause the compressor to run continuously or even non-stop!
Vacation Tips: If the appliance will not be used for several months:
●Remove all food.
●Unplug the power cord.

Cleaning and Care
For hygienic reasons the appliance interior, including interior accessories, should be cleaned regularly. The fridge should be cleaned and maintained at least every two months.
! Warning ! Danger of electrical shock !
●The appliance may not be connected to the outlet during cleaning! Before cleaning switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or switch off the circuit breaker or fuse.
●Remove the food from the appliance before cleaning. Store food in a cool place and keep well covered.
●Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumulate in electrical components.
●Hot vapours can lead to the damage of plastic parts.
●The appliance must be dry before it is placed back into service.

! IMPORTANT !
●Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g. lemon juice or the juice from orange peel, butyric acid, and cleansers that contain acetic acid. Do not allow such substances to come into contact with appliance parts.
●Do not use any abrasive cleansers.
●Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with a cloth and lukewarm water. Commercially available dish washing detergents may also be used.
●After cleaning, wipe with fresh water and a clean dish cloth.
●Accumulation of dust at the condenser increases energy consumption. For this reason carefully clean the condenser at the back of the appliance once a year with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.
●Check the water drain hole on the rear wall of the refrigerator compartment.
●Clear a blocked drain hole with the aid of something like a soft peg. Be careful not to create any damage to the cabinet by sharp objects.
●After everything is dry, place appliance back into service.
Defrosting Your Refrigerator
●To defrost the refrigerator, remove all food and objects from the refrigerator. Ensure the drip pan is in place under the freezer compartment. Unplug the unit and ensure the cord is in safe dry location. The defrost process may take a few hours. To speed up the defrost time, keep the door open and place a bowl of warm water in the refrigerator. Never use sharp objects to remove the frost.
●During the defrost cycle, water will accumulate in the drip tray. The drip tray may need to be emptied during the defrost cycle. Do not leave unattended.
●After defrosting is complete, empty and wipe down the drip tray, as well as the interior of the refrigerator. You may now reset the refrigerator to the desired temperature and put the food back in.
