INTRODUCTION
This appliance contains a
small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), natural gas with high environmental compat­ibility, but it is also combustible. When transporting and installing the appliance, care should be taken to ensure that no parts of the refrigerating circuit are dam­aged. Refrigerant squirting out of the pipes could ignite or cause an eye injury. If a leak is detected, avoid any naked ames or poten­tial sources of ignition and air the room in which the appliance is standing for several minutes. In order to avoid the creation of a ammable gas air mixture if a leak in the refrigerating circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the appliance may be sited depends on the amount of refrigerant used. The room must be 1m2 in size for every 8g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is shown on the identi­cation plate inside the appliance. Never start up an appliance show­ing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.

• Please use bottled water currently circulated.
- If you ll soft drinks, milk and fruit juices or ground water(included Ca, Mg, Si etc..) or no ltered water, it may cause malfunctioning.
• When you ll water tank with water, please let
hot water cool before putting water tank in refrig­erator. Hot water cause malfunctioning..
Storing food
• Do not store food which goes bad easily at low
temperature, such as banana, and melon.
• Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot
food in the fridge-freezer could spoil other food, and lead to higher electric bills.
• When storing the food, use a container with a lid.
This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients.
• Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circula­tion of cold air keeps fridge-freezer temperature even.
• Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door
lets warm air enter the fridge-freezer, and cause temperature to rise.
• Never keep too many foods in door rack, as this
may stop the door from fully closing.
• Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment­they may break when frozen.
• Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This
causes loss of taste and nutrition.
• Do not store pharmaceutical products, scientic
materials or other temperature sensitive products in the refrigerator. Products that require strict temperature controls must not be stored in the refrigerator.
OPERATION
• If you want to quick freeze new food, you put it
middle drawer of freezer compartment, and then press the Express Frz. button.
• To ensure good air circulation in the appliance,
insert the freezer drawers all the way.
Suggestion for energy saving
• Please do not keep the door open for a long time,
close door in the shortest time.
• Too much food are not advised to be put in.
Enough space should be kept for cool air circulating freely.
• Do not set the temperature of fridge-freezer lower
than needed. Do not put the food near the tempera-
ture sensor. Keep the distance of at least 5mm from
the sensors.
• Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot
food in the fridge-freezer could spoil other food, and lead to higher electric bills.
• Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circula-
tion of cold air keeps fridge-freezer temperature even.
• Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door
lets warm air enter the fridge-freezer, and cause temperature to rise.
• To keep a position of inner parts like as baskets,
drawers (Fridge), shelves and wire shelves supplied by manufacturer is the most ecient usage for energy saving.
