OPERATION
STARTING
When your refrigerator is first installed, allow it 2-3 hours to stabilize at normal operating temperatures prior to filling it with fresh or frozen foods.
If operation is interrupted, allow 5 minutes delay before restarting.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
REFRIGERATOR
• Your refrigerator has two controls that let you regulate the temperature in the freezer and refrigerator compartments.
• The default setting of the temperature control button for the refrigerator compartment is NORMAL. You can set the refrigerator temperature using the Electro Temp Control. Whenever pressing the button, the LED emit light. The temperature of the compartment goes down as the LED luminesce from MIN to MAX. You can select the desired set point in five (5) steps between minimum and maximum.
FREEZER
For the economic electricity, set the LED to the MIN position.
COLD AIR CONTROL - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 Setting at "8", the freezer compartment becomes colder. But the refrigerator compartment becomes warmer because less cold air flows into the refrigerator compartment.
In cold weather the unit operates less and the freezer compartment has a tendency to warm up. For colder freezer, turn the COLD AIR CONTROL to "7"~"8".
If you take a lot of foods in the freezer or open its door frequently, its temperature is apt to be somewhat higher. In this case, set the COLD AIR CONTROL dial between 7 and 8 to cool it. Return the COLD AIR CONTROL dial to
the original position to cut down the consumption of energy.
In hot weather or to put much foods in the refrigerator compartment, the refrigerator compartment has a tendency to warm up. For colder refrigerator, turn the COLD AIR CONTROL to "2"~"4" to direct more cold air into the refrigerator compartment, and the Electro Temp Control to MAX. Setting at "7"~"8" of the COLD AIR CONTROL, the refrigerator
compartment will not be cold enough.

SUGGESTIONS ON FOOD STORAGE
STORING FOOD
Store fresh food in the refrigerator compartment. How food is frozen and defrosted is an important factor in maintaining freshness and flavor.
Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as bananas, pineapples, and melons.
Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot food in the refrigerator could spoil other food, and lead to high electric bills!
When storing, wrap food in vinyl, or place in a covered container. This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and nutritional valve.
Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circulation of chilled air keeps refrigerator temperatures even.
Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the refrigerator, causing temperatures to rise.
To adjust the temperature control easily, do not store food near the temperature control dial.
FREEZER COMPARTMENT
Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen.
Do not refreeze food that has been defrosted. This causes loss of taste and nutritional valve.
When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on the freezer shelf, not in the door rack.
Loading for Freezing - It is recommended to load newly introduced foods on the following position for freezing:
REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT
Avoid placing moist food on deep interior refrigerator shelves, it could freeze upon direct contact with chilled air. To avoid this it is better to store food in the covered container.
Always clean food prior to refrigeration. Vegetables and fruits should be washed and wiped, and packed food should be wiped clean, to prevent adjacent food from spoiling.
When storing eggs in their storage rack, ensure that they are fresh, and always store them in a up­right position, which keeps them fresh longer.
Door rack -
NOTE
Loading the food on the whole area of door rack would cause no problems in performance.
If you keep the refrigerator in a hot, and humid place, frequently open its door or put a lot of vegetables in it, dew may form in it, which has no effect on its performance. Remove the dew with dust cloth free from care.

CLEANING
It is important that you refrigerator be kept clean to prevent undesirable odors. Spilled food should be wipe up immediately, since it may acidify and stain plastic surfaces if allowed to settle.
Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, coarse abrasive cleaners or strong alkaline solutions on any surface.
Before you clean, however, remember that damp objects will stick or adhere to extremely cold surfaces. Do not touch frozen surfaces with wet or damp hands.
EXTERIOR - Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap or dish washable solution to clean the durable finish of your refrigerator. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and then dry.
INTERIOR - Regular cleaning of the interior and interior parts is recommended. Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap or dish washable solution to clean the durable finish of your refrigerator. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and then dry.
INTERIOR PARTS - Wash compartment shelves, door racks, storage trays and magnetic door seals etc. Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap or dish washable solution to clean the durable finish of your refrigerator. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and then dry.
GENERAL INFORMATION
VACATION TIME
During average length vacations, you will probably find it best to leave the refrigerator in operation. Place freezable items in freezer for longer life. When you plan to be away for an extended period, remove all food, disconnect the power cord, clean the interior thoroughly, and leave each door OPEN to prevent odor formation.
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected in an hour or two and will not affect your refrigerator temperatures. However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off. During power failures of longer duration, place a block of dry ice on top of your frozen packages.
IF YOU MOVE
Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside the refrigerator. To avoid damaging the leveling screws, turn them all the way into the base.
ANTI-CONDENSATION PIPE
The outside wall of the refrigerator cabinet may sometimes get warm, especially just after
installation. Don't be alarmed. This is due to the anti­condensation pipe, which pumps hot refrigerant to prevent "sweating" on the outer cabinet wall.
WARNING
Always remove power cord from the wall outlet prior to cleaning in the vicinity of electrical parts(lamps, switches, controls, etc.). Wipe up excess moisture with a sponge or cloth to prevent water or liquid from getting into any electrical part and causing electric shock. Do not use flammable or toxic cleaning liquids.
Caution for Cleaning Not in use : Surface active agent, Car wax, Anticorrosive, All sorts of oil, Gasoline, Acids, Wax.
Usable Detergent Vegetable dish washable solution, Soapy water.
When careless using, it can occur a color change.
