WARNING

Introduction

Important Safety Instruction

• Do not disassemble, repair or alter the appliance. It may cause fire or abnormal operations, which may lead to injury.

• Pull the power plug out of the socket before replacing the interior light in the refrigerator. Otherwise, there is a risk of electric shock.

• If possible, connect the fridge-freezer to its own individual electrical outlet to prevent it and other appliances or household lights from causing an overload.

The supply plug of the refrigerator-freezer should be placed in easy accessible position for quick disconnection in emergency.

Accessibility of

Supply Plug

It will cause electric shock or fire.

Do not modify or

extend the Power

Cord length.

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.

Don't store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

In the event of an electric short circuit, grounding (earthing) reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. In order to prevent possible electric shock, this appliance must be grounded. Improper use of the grounding plug can result in an electric shock.

Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer: Take off the doors. Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

Introduction

Important Safety Instruction

WARNING

Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear of obstruction. Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer. Do not damage the refrigerant circuit. Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments of the appliance, unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer. The refrigerant and insulation blowing gas used in the appliance require special disposal procedures. When disposal, please consult with service agent or a similarly qualified person.

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 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 may be sited depends on the amount of refrigerant used. The room must be 1 m2 in size for every 8 g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your particular appliance is shown on the identification plate inside the appliance. Never start up an appliance showing any signs of damage. If in doubt, consult your dealer.

How to adjust the

temperature in the

refrigerator and

Method to Use

•

By pressing the button, store vegetables, fruits (at relatively low conservation temperature) or other types of food such as meat to be defrosted, raw fish, etc.

•

You can select optimum temperature range depending on types of food stored.

•

3 steps of temperature selection including 2°C, -1°C,

-3°C is available. Vegetables/fruits and cold storage foods requiring humidity maintenance and meats/fishes can be more freshly stored depending on type of food stored.

The Snack Bin can move left and right.

Snack Bin

Operation

• Fill water in ice making box of the

ice making corner. Only fill with enough water to maintain individual ice cubes. If over filled, the cubes will not separate when harvested resulting clumps. Water may also spill over causing cubes in ice bin to clump.

• Ice will be dropped into the ice

storage bin by rotating ice separation handle of ice making compartment.

Ice Making

• Defrosting takes place automatically.

• The defrosting water flows down to the evaporating

tray and is evaporated automatically.

Defrosting

• Rotating the ice separation handle before ice is fully frozen may cause the remaining water to drop into the ice storage bin and clump the ice together.

Note

ENGLISH

Operation

•

You can store taller items such as decanters or bottles by simply pushing in front half of shelf underneath back half of shelf. Pull toward you to return to a full shelf.

Suggestions on food storage

Storing Food

CAUTION

• 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 the 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 compartment, Miracle Zone or snack bin they may break when frozen.

• Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrition.

• Do not store pharmaceutical products, scientific materials or other temperature sensitive products in the refrigerator. Products that require strict temperature controls must not be stored in the refrigerator.

• If you want to quick freeze new food, you put it in the middle drawer of freezer compartment, and then press the Super Freezer button.

• Do not put in front of the air hole of the upper drawer of freezer compartment. It could decrease freezer capacity.

ENGLISH

Suggestions on food storage

If you keep the fridge-freezer 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 a lint free cloth.

Note

• To ensure good air circulation in the appliance, insert the freezer drawers all the way.

• If large quantities of food are to be stored in the freezer, a middle drawer of freezer compartment can be taken out of the appliance and the food can be stored directly right over the food stacked from the lower drawer. To remove a freezer drawer, pull out all the way, lift at the front and remove.

Care and Maintenance

General Information

• 1~2 hour power failure does no harm to the foods stores. Try to avoid opening and closing the door too frequently.

Power Failure

• Take out foods from the fridge-freezer and firmly fix the loose items with tape.

• Do not move the fridge freezer by sliding.

If You Move

• The Anti-Condensation pipe is installed around the front side of fridge-freezer as well as on the partition between fridge compartment and freezer compartment to prevent dewing.

• Especially after installation or when ambient temperature is high, the fridge-freezer may feel hot, which is quite normal.

Anti Condensation

Pipe

• This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as

– staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working

environments;

– farm houses and by clients in hotels, motels and other

residential type environments;
