Elevating Shelves
Cool from the front side
Shelves can be adjusted up or down shelf without having to remove already stored items. Storage capacity of the refrigerator compartment is maximized.
Surround Cooling System Cold air is directed into the refrigerator from the front, back and both sides of the compartment. This ensures uniform cooling throughout the compartment.
Pure clear ice
UV Catalyst and Lead reducing filter removes bacteria with the power of light and enhances the flavor of water. Enjoy Pure clear ice cubes using tap water or mineral water.
Vitamin Factory vegetable compartment
Not only keeps freshness but also enhances nutrition. Just by placing vegetables inside, vitamins and polyphenols can be enhanced by the power of light.

Non-freon refrigerants are flammable gas. However, it is hermetically sealed, therefore, leaking is infrequent.
1. Do not use electric items or fire equipments near by.
2. Open the window and ventilate the room.
And then contact the retail store you have purchased from for further instructions.
Heat builds up in exterior walls of the refrigerator
When the refrigerator is first used and during the summer heat build-up can exceed 50-60˚C
to allow heat to escape from the ceiling and the sides of the refrigerator
Dedicated outlet that meets the specified rating.
Warning
Warning
Just in case of having damaged the refrigerant circuit.
Using outlets that do not meet the specified rating or plugging in too many leads into a single socket can cause heat build up or fire.
Do not close the ventilation hole of the refrigerator or the crack around the refrigerator. If the refrigerant leaks, ignition or explosion may be caused.
Connect the power supply.
*Connect power supply soon after installing the refrigerator.
Make sure this unit is properly grounded.
Use a dedicated outlet for the power supply that meets the rating specified on the rating label. (The rating label is located on the door-liner of the refrigerator compartment.)
Prevention of television noise or image disturbance.
A place away from other devices
The installation area should not be exposed to direct sunlight or hot air, and should be well-ventilated
to avoid diminished cooling power and to economise on the cost of electricity.
to prevent rusting
It should have little humidity
to prevent vibration and noise, half-shut doors, and tilted doors.
It should be strong and level
Install a strong plate or board under the refrigerator if the supports easily sink into the floor. (For prevention of deformation or discoloration due to heat or weight)
Electrical Connections
The unit should always be plugged into its own electrical outlet. This will provide the best performance and prevent electrical circuits from being overloaded and causing a fire. Make sure that the electrical outlet provides the proper voltage. Extension cords are not recommended.
The refrigerator will not be damaged even if the power is supplied soon after installation. It takes a while for the refrigerator to cool, therefore supply power as soon as possible.
Leave space for heat ventilation
Do not cause damage to refrigerant circuit (piping) / Do not attach screws.
Leave at least 2cm of space on the right and left and 10cm of space between the ceiling and the top of the refrigerator
From Installation to Operation
From Installation to Operation
If your unit is installed in the high humidity location, not only ground connection but also installation of an earth leakage breaker is recommended.
If the power cord is damaged, purchase a new cord from MITSUBISHI SERVICE CENTER. Make sure that the power cord is designed for this model.
If the power cord is damaged, call our MITSUBISHI SERVICE CENTER for the replacement, in order to avoid a hazard.

adjustable support
caster Leg cover
Adjustment and Anchoring
Turn the adjustable supports until they touch the floor and the casters are raised from the floor
Leg Cover
Insert into the bottom space from the front side of the refrigerator.
(The leg cover is bundled in the refrigerator compartment before shipment from the plant.)
Adjusting tilted doors and an uneven refrigerator
If the installation area is not level or the refrigerator supports sink after a few days due to the weight of the food, the door will appear lower. (Depending on the quantity of food, the food weight can exceed 100 kg.) Turn the adjustable support in the direction given below for readjustment.
Thread strong belts through the 2 handy-grip recesses on the top-rear of the refrigerator and secure them to the wall, posts or another strong area
For example, if the refrigerator is installed in the corner of a room, one of the rear supports may sink into the floor. Use a caster stand (sold separately) or strong plate at the rear of the refrigerator. (In general, the plate should be 2-3 mm thick.) To obtain a caster stand, contact your retail store.
Make sure that leg cover surface is level
Prepare for earthquakes
to prevent vibration and noise, transmigration and half-shut doors
Insufficiently adjusted supports can cause injury due to migration of the refrigerator.
Turn each adjustable support in the arrow direction until they touch the floor.
Caution
Warning
Level the refrigerator left to right, with the front of the refrigerator raised slightly, so that the doors close easily and to prevent half-open doors.

The deodoriser cannot remove odour completely.
Foods that tend to spread odour
Be sure not to catch food items, plastic bags, power cords, etc. in the door when you close it.
Helpful storage hints
Leave space between items in the refrigerator.
Avoid opening and closing the door unnecessarily and leaving the door open for a long time.
Allow large quantities of food to cool before storing.
Use your refrigerator efficiently to save electricity
Securely pack foods with strong odours for storing.
Frost build-up can cause decline in cooling ability as a result of even the slightest door opening
Pickled scallions, dried fish, fermented soybeans (natto), miso, beef, pickled radish, sardine, hot Korean pickles, Chinese meat dumpling, etc.
Foods that tend to be affected by odour
Pudding, ice cream, potato salad, tofu, rice, bread, milk, cake, ice, etc.
