1.6 War nings for e nerg y
1)Refrigerating appliances might not operate consistently (possibility of defrosting of contents or
temperature becoming too warm in the frozen food compartment) when sited for an extended period of
time below the cold end of the range of temperatures for which the refrigerating appliance is designed.
2)The fact that effervescent drinks should not be stored in food freezer compartments or cabinets or
in low-temperature compartments or cabinets, and that some products such as water ices should not be
consumed too cold;
3)The need to not exceed the storage time(s) recommended by the food manufacturers for any kind of
food and particularly for commercially quick-frozen food in food-freezer and frozen-food storage
compartments or cabinets;
4)The precautions necessary to prevent an undue rise in the temperature of the frozen food while
defrosting the refrigerating appliance, such as wrapping the frozen food in several layers of newspaper.
5)The fact that a rise in temperature of the frozen food during manual defrosting, maintenance or
cleaning could shorten the storage life.
6)The necessity that, for doors or lids fitted with locks and keys, the keys be kept out of the reach

2.5 Starting
Before initial start, keep the refrigerator still for half an hour
before connecting it to power supply.
Before putting any fresh or frozen foods, the refrigerator shall have run
for 2-3 hours, or for above 4 hours in summer when the ambient
temperature is high.
Spare enough space for convenient opening of the doors and drawers.
The picture above is only for reference. The actual configuration will
depend on the physical product or statement by the distributor
2.6 Energy saving tips
The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat
producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading
the appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may
lose quality, or spoil.
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the
appliance. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the appliance.
Appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper
toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the appliance less eff ic ie nt .
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many
items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
2.4 the LightChanging
Any replacement or maintenance of the LED lamps is intended to be made by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similar qualified person.

Loud noise
Check whether the floor is level and whether the refrigerator is placed stably
Check whether accessories are placed at proper locations
Water pan ove rf lo ws
There is too much food in the chamber or food stored contains
too much water,resulting in heavy defrosting
The doors are not closed properly, resulting in frosting due to entry
of air and increased water due to defrosting
5.1You may try to solve the following simple problems by yourself.
If them cannot be solved, please contact the after-sales department.
Failed operation
Check whether the appliance is connected to power or
whether the plug is in well contact
Check whether the voltage is too low
Check whether there is a power failure or partial circuits have tripped
Odor
Odorous foods shall be tightly wrapped
Check whether there is any rotten food
Clean the inside of the refrigerator
Light fails to get lit
Check whether the refrigerator is connected to power supply and
whether the illuminating light is damaged
Have the light replaced by a specialist
Door seal fails to
be tight
Remove foreign matters on the door seal
Heat the door seal and then cool it for restoration
(or blow it with an electrical drier or use a hot towel for heating)
Hot housing
Heat dissipation of the built-in condenser via the housing, which is normal
When housing becomes hot due to high ambient temperature,
storage of too much food or shutdown of the compressor is shut down,
provide sound ventilation to facilitate heat dissipation
Abnormal noise
Long operation of the refrigerator is normal in summer
when the ambient temperature is high
It is not suggestible having too much food in the appliance at the same time
Food shall get cool before being put into the appliance
The doors are opened too frequently
Long-time operation
of the compressor
The door is stuck by food packages Too much food is placed
The refrigerator is tilted
Doors cannot be
properly closed
Surface condensation
Condensation on the exterior surface and door seals of the refrigerator
is normal when the ambient humidity is too high. Just wipe the condensate
with a clean towel.
Buzz: The compressor may produce buzzes during operation, and the buzzes
are loud particularly upon start or stop. This is normal.
Creak: Refrigerant flowing inside of the appliance may produce creak,
which is normal.
