relevant safety standard.
To avoid the risk of child entrapment, please make sure
your old refrigerator is inoperative and safe by removing
the latches and bolt locks before disposal.
Important!
It must be noticed that refrigeration system contains
refrigerants, which require specialized waste disposal.
Contact your local waste disposal center for proper
disposal of an old appliance and contact your local
authority or your dealer if you have any question. Please
ensure that the pipe work of your refrigerator does not get
damaged prior to being picked up by the relevant waste
disposal center, and contribute to environmental
awareness by insisting on an appropriate, anti-pollution
method of disposal. Please see the rating plate for the
type of refrigerant and insulation used.
The plug should be accessible after the appliance is
positioned.
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced with a
new power cord from the manufacturer or an authorized
service agent.
Caution:
The appliance should be installed in a well ventilated place.
The shipment package should be removed.
Caution:

This User’s Manual is applicable to a variety of models
and there may be slight changes in certain aspects from
model to model.
1.Environmental Protection and
Proper Disposal
Package materials
The appliance is packaged in a way to prevent damages
during transportation. Recyclable materials are used.
The packing box is made of corrugated board / cardboard
(mainly from recycled paper).
ePolystyrene parts (CFC-free foamed polystyrene)
eLinings and polyethylene bags
ePolypropylene straps
All these valuable materials may be taken to a waste
collecting center and used again after adequate recycling.
All waste materials should be disposed properly.
2.Location
Make sure the refrigerator is kept upright during handling.
If an inclination is required, it should not exceed 45
degrees. Otherwise the appliance may get damaged
resulting not only in compromised refrigeration
performance.
To avoid product damage or personal injury, the
refrigerator should be unpacked by two persons after it is
located in a previously selected position.
Before installation, make sure the refrigerator has no
visible exterior damage.
When handling the refrigerator, do not lift it by holding the
worktop, to prevent any damage to the refrigerator.
Do not start up a refrigerator that is damaged.
Check the refrigerator carefully for:
·Damaged package due to inappropriate handling
during transportation
Damage in the exterior
·Damage in power cord / plug
Any doubt, please contact Customer Service for a
thorough checkup of the appliance.
Take necessary measures to prevent leakage of
refrigerant at the start-up of refrigerator that may result in
environmental pollution.
3.Installation
a) Remove all package materials.
b) Remove items in the refrigerator.
c) Make sure to remove film and tape on the cabinet and
the door.
d) Remove polystyrene chips (if any) around the
refrigerator.
e) Take out accessories and literature in the refrigerator.
f) Clean the inside of the refrigerator with lukewarm
water and vinegar and then dry it with a soft cloth.
g) Use the spanners supplied to adjust the leveling leg to
ensure the refrigerator is stable.
Do not use detergents, sharp or pointed instruments
or soda-based cleansers to clean the refrigerator.
· Before installation, make sure the refrigeration system
is free of any damage.
· The refrigerator should be used for its intended purpose
only.
· The refrigerator should be positioned on the solid and
even floor to ensure refrigerant circulation and
refrigerating performance.
· If possible, position the refrigerator in a cool and dry
well ventilated room.
· Do not expose the refrigerator to direct sunshine and
make sure the ambient temperature is not extremely
high.
· Keep the refrigerator from a heat source, such as
heating system, oven or cookers. Otherwise the
compressor will operate more frequently resulting in
extra power consumption.
If the refrigerator will be placed near a heat source, it is
recommended to install a thermal barrier between the
refrigerator and the heat source (asbestos is prohibited) or
maintain adequate space between the refrigerator and
the heat source as follows:
Do not place any radiating apparatus, such as microwave
oven or roaster, on top of the refrigerator.
Make sure the air vent is not obstructed.
Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on the power cord.
Always grip the plug firmly and pull it straight out from the
outlet.
the heat source as follows:
Cooker or electric stove 3 cm
Radiator or oven 30 cm
Another refrigerator 2 cm
Warning!
After the refrigerator is positioned, allow it to stand still for
at least 2 hours before starting it up to ensure stable
refrigerant circulation and faultless operation.
Before starting up the refrigerator, make sure the inner
compartment is dry (especially corners).
Danger!
Depending on the chemical composition, the refrigerant
may be flammable. The leak-proofness of refrigerant
circulation system is test proven. Unauthorized
intervention of the refrigerant circulation system may
cause fire.
Make sure the refrigerant circulation system and the
peripheral parts of compressor are not affected.
Any intervention of the refrigerating system should be
conducted only by professional personnel.
Warning!
Refrigerant getting into eyes can cause serious injury. In
this case, rinse the eyes under running water and consult
an ophthalmologist without delay.
The refrigerator should be used within an appropriate
range of room temperature by its climate type.
The range of room temperature for a specific climate type
should be observed. See the rating plate for the climate
type of your appliance.
Climate type Room temperature
SN +10°C~+32°C
N +16°C~+32°C
ST +18°C~+38°C
T +18°C~+43°C
4. Rating Plate
A rating plate is found on the side panel or back panel of
the refrigerator, indicating important technical data.
Write down these technical data.
Write down these technical data.
Write down the technical data for later reference to avoid
the need for moving the refrigerator when such data are
needed.

5.Electric Connection
The refrigerator should use a properly grounded outlet
which should be checked by a qualified electrician. The
refrigerator should always be plugged into its own
individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating and a
fuse rating in conformity with the rating plate.
