This appliance contains a small amount of isobutane refrigerant (R600a), 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.
•
If a leak is detected, avoid any naked flames 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 flammable gas air mixture if a leak in the refrigerating circuit occurs, the size of the
room in which the appliance is used should correspond to the amount of refrigerant used.
The room must be 1 m² in size for every 8 g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance.
•
When positioning the appliance, ensure the supply cord is not trapped or damaged.
•
Do not locate multiple portable socket-outlets or portable power supplies at the rear of
the appliance.

1. Place your freezer in a location that suits your working
convenience.
2. Avoid placing unit in a narrow recess or near any heat
sources, direct sunlight or moisture.
3. Air must circulate properly around your appliance to
ensure efficient operation. Allow at least a clearance
of 10 cm distance from the wall at the rear and 30 cm
distance between the upper wall of the product.
4. To avoid any vibration, the unit must be leveled side to side.
The front should be slightly higher than than the rear to
aid in door closing. Leveling screws can be turned easily
by tipping the cabinet slightly and adjustment can be made with
your finger to raise or lower the cabinet.
5. The appliance should be so positioned that the supply plug is
accessible for quick disconnection when accident happens.

SAFETY INSTRUCTION
INNER PARTS
1. Before operating this appliance please review this list :
a. In order to prevent possible electric shock cause by the current leakage, this
appliance must be grounded.
b. Please connect the ground wire (installed on back side of cabinet) to ground or
water pipe from steel.
2. Do not use an extension cords
If possible, connect the freezer to its own individual electrical outlet and do not use
an extension cord.
3. Starting
When your freezer is first installed, allow it to stabilize
at normal operating temperature for 30 minutes.
If operation are interupted, wait 5 minutes before restarting.
4. Suply cord replacement
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
By the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid a hazard
5. Grounding
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in electric shock. Consult a qualified
electrician or service person if the grounding instruction are not completely
understood, or if you have doubts on whether the appliance is properly grounded.
6. Vacation time
During average long vacation, it is better to not operate the freezer. Remove all food,
disconnect the power cord, clean the interior thoroughly, and leave door open to
prevent odor formation.
7. Power failure
Most power failure that are corrected in an hour or two
will not effect your freezer temperature. However you
should minimize the number of door openings while the
power is off.
After 5 minutes...
8. Cleaning
Unplug the power cord from the power outlet for cleaning
or other requirements. Never touch it with wet hands
Because you can get an electric shock or be hurt.

4.
Never keep too much food in freezer because they can block
air circulation.
5.
When storing the food, cover it with vinyl wrap or store in container
with a lid. This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food
to keep its taste and nutrients.
6.
Allow hot food to cool prior to storing, placing hot food in freezer could spoil other
food and lead to higher energy consumption.
Do not store bottles in the freezer - they may break when frozen.
7.
Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrient.

open the unit door and room temperature.
There will be “ , MIN, MID, MAX” mark on temperature controller knob to
enhance you to chose the requirement temperature.

- You should do defrosting regularly, in order to keep the unit works efficiently.
- If you want to do defrosting, just turn the knob to position so defrost water
will run out to tray drip. It is better to do total defrosting regularly one a month by
unplug power cord from the power outlet.
- For faster defrosting, place 1 or 2 pan with warm water on the unit.
- Always wrap the food when defrosting otherwise straightway consume the food.
- Setting knob temperature control to original position after defrosting finish.
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
INNER PARTS
1. Please read this guide thoroughly before operating this unit.
2. This freezer is just for domestic used otherwise it will avoid warranty.
3. Any improper operation or damage, just take out the plug and call the service.
4. Always unplug power cord when defrosting, cleaning and fixing the unit.
5. If you move the freezer, remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside
the freezer. To avoid damaging the height adjusting screws, turn them all the way
into the base.
6. Close the unit door completely to get best cooling result

SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
INNER PARTS
Do not ever use sharp and metal tools to remove ice and frost or
to take out ice and food on evaporator. A punctured evaporator
will cause serious problems and avoid warranty.
GENERAL INFORMATION
VACATION TIME
During average length vacations, you will
probably find it best to leave the freezer
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 freezer
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.
DRY ICE WARNING
When using dry ice, provide adequate
ventilation. Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide
(CO2). When it vaporizes, it can displace
oxygen, causing dizziness, light-headedness,
unconsciousness, and death by suffocation.
Open a window and do not breathe the
vapors.
IF YOU MOVE
If you move, empty the freezer
(freezer)completely and wash a mild
solution of baking soda and water.
(2 TBS soda to 1 quart water) Be sure
the soda is completely dissolved to avoid
scratching the inside of the freezer
(freezer). Secure any loose items, such
as racks, bins, ice trays, etc. Do not try to
move a loaded freezer.
ANTI-CONDENSATION PIPE
The outside wall of the freezer
cabinet may sometimes get warm,
especially just after
installation.
Don't be alarmed.
This is due to the
anti-condensation pipe,
which pumps hot
refrigerant to prevent
sweating on the outer cabinet wall.
Anti-Condensation

This appliance is intended to be used in
household and similar applications such as:
- Staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and
other working environments.

qualified electrician if you have questions.
ACCESSIBILITY SUPPLY PLUG
The freezer-freezer should be so positioned
that the supply plug is accessible for quick
disconnection if an accident happens.
SUPPLY CORD REPLACEMENT
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufactur
or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid
a hazard.
VERY DANGEROUS ATTRACTION
An empty freezer can be a dangerous
attraction to children. Remove either
gaskets, latches, lids or the entire door
from your unused appliance,or take some
other action to make it harmless.
