HOW TO OPERATE
Before rst use, remove all adhesive tape from the drawers, shelves, trays and drain tube plug.
INSTALLATION
1. The refrigerator should be placed on a completely at surface. Allow 1 foot of space on each side of the refrigerator and between the refrigerator and the wall. Also allow at least 8 inches of space between the top of the refrigerator and the ceiling.
2. Choose a location for your refrigerator that is not exposed to sunlight, high temperature or humidity, as humidity may stain and damage the refrigerator.
3. The appliance can be adjusted by rolling the two legs in the bottom front of the refrigerator if it becomes unstable. Raise the refrigerator by rolling the two legs clockwise.
4. The surface of the location where the refrigerator is installed should be rm and at. If refrigerator is not secured in a proper location, noise and vibration may occur. The noise may be increased if the oor is not rm. If you have to position the refrigerator on a carpeted oor, place a sheet underneath the refrigerator to prevent heat emissions from ruining the carpet.
5. Make sure that legs are pressed rmly into the oor and allow the refrigerator to lean backward slightly so that the doors remain closed.
PLACEMENT OF FOOD
1. There should always be some space between items inside for air circulation.
2. Food should be kept in sealed containers to avoid becoming dry, spoiled or creating odors in the refrigerator.
3. Hot food should be cooled down before placing into the appliance. Otherwise, bacteria will grow in food.
4. Reducing the frequency of opening the doors can lower the electricity consumption.
NOTE: Do not use any electronic equipment inside the appliance.
ADJUSTING TEMPERATURE
The temperature of the refrigerator can be controlled manually by the thermostat control dial. However, the number shown on the dial does not correlate to the degrees. The higher the number, the lower the interior temperature of the refrigerator will be.
0 = OFF 1= Higher Temperature (warmer)
4 = Normal Use 7 = Lower Temperature (colder)
PACKING AND MOVING
Save packing materials if possible and remember how materials are packed in the box. Repack refrigerator and accessories carefully.
DO NOT lift or pull the doors or door handles during transportation.
When moving, do not tilt appliance more than 45 degrees. Be very careful not to bump the refrigerator into anything.

HELPFUL TIPS
The refrigerator does not work.
It may not be properly connected to the power supply, or the voltage may be too low.
The refrigerator does not work as eciently as expected.
It may be caused by heavy frost, the temperature setting being too warm, or by frequently opening and closing the door.
It makes strange noises.
The noises may be caused by the refrigerator not being stabilized. Make sure the surface that the refrigerator is on is at and rm. Noise can also be caused by resonation between the refrigerator and objects near it.
The compressor keeps working for a long period of time.
The temperature may be too high. This can also be caused by the frequent opening and closing of the doors, or by the door being left open. Try moving the temperature setting between 4-7.
The inside of the refrigerator has a bad odor.
Food with a strong odor should be packed in tightly closed containers before storing in the refrigerator or freezer. Make sure to regularly clean out your refrigerator and make sure that you do not leave spoiled food in the refrigerator.
Water is leaking from the bottom of the refrigerator.
The drain tube is probably jammed. Contact a qualied technician to repair it.
Heavy frost occurs in the back of the appliance.
Putting humid or hot food into the refrigerator or freezer may cause this problem. Or it may be caused by a lot of moisture in the environment.
DO NOT place objects on top of the refrigerator that are magnetic, heavy or lled with water. Electronic components may not work properly if water gets inside. DO NOT store valuables or objects sensitive to temperature inside the refrigerator or freezer.

2. Uninstall the drawers and shelves.
3. Unplug the power supply cord.
