• If the appliance contains iso-butane refrigerant

When transporting and installing the appliance,
care should be taken to ensure that no parts of

• When disposing of this product or other

refrigerators, remove the door/door seals, door
latch so that small children or animals cannot
become trapped inside. Leave the shelves in
place so that children may not easily climb inside.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the old appliance.

• Please dispose of the packaging material for this

product in an environmentally friendly manner.

ADDITIONAL TIPS FOR
PROPER USAGE

• In the event of a power failure, call the local offi ce

of your Electricity Company and ask how long it
is going to last.

- Most power failures that are corrected within

an hour or two will not affect your refrigerator
temperatures. However, you should minimize the
number of door openings while the power is off.

- Should the power failure last more than 24 hours,

remove all frozen food.

• If keys are provided with the refrigerator, the keys

should be kept out of the reach of children and
not in vicinity of the appliance.

• The appliance might not operate consistently

(possibility of temperature becoming too warm
in refrigerator) when sited for an extended period
of time below the cold end of the range of

temperature for which the refrigerating appliance
is designed.

• Do not store food which spoils easily at low

temperature, such as bananas, melons.

• Your appliance is frost free, which means there is

no need to manually defrost your appliance, as
this will be carried out automatically.

• Temperature rising during the defrost can comply

with ISO requirement. But if you want to prevent
an undue rise in the temperature of the frozen
food while defrosting the appliance, please wrap
the frozen food in several layers of newspaper.

• Any increase in temperature of frozen food during

defrosting can shorten its storage life.

Saving Energy Tips

- Install the appliance in a cool, dry room with

adequate ventilation.
Ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight
and never put it near a direct source of heat
(radiator, for example).

- Never block any vents or grilles on the appliance.

- Allow warm food to cool down before placing it in

the appliance.

- Put frozen food in the refrigerator to thaw.

You can then use the low temperatures of the
frozen products to cool food in the refrigerator.

- Do not keep the door of the appliance open for

too long when putting food in or taking food out.
The shorter time for which the door is open, the
less ice will form in the freezer.

- Clean the rear of the refrigerator regularly. Dust

increases energy consumption.

- Do not set temperature colder than necessary.

- Ensure suffi cient air exhaust at the refrigerator

base and at the back wall of the refrigerator.
Do not cover air vent openings.

- Allow clearance to the right, left, back and top

when installing.
This will help reduce power consumption and
keep your energy bills lower.

To protect the fi nish of the fl ooring, cut a large
section of the cardboard
carton and place under
the refrigerator where
you are working. When
moving the refrigerator,
be sure to pull it straight

PROBLEM SOLUTION

The Refrigerator does
not work at all or it does
not chill suffi ciently.

The food in the
Refrigerator is frozen.

You hear unusual noise
or sounds.

The front corners and
horizontal hinged section
of the appliance are hot
and condensation is
occurring.

Ice Maker is not
producing ice.

You hear water bubbling
in the Refrigerator.

There is a bad smell in
the Refrigerator.

Frost forms on the walls
of the Freezer.

• Check that the power plug is properly connected.

• Is the temperature control on the display panel set to the correct

temperature?
Try setting it to a lower temperature.

• Is the refrigerator in direct sunlight or located near a heat source?

• Is the back of the refrigerator so close to the wall that air cannot keep

circulating? (Refer to page 10 for the best location.)

• Is the temperature control on the display set to the correct

temperature?
Try setting it to a warmer temperature.

• Is the temperature in the room too low?

• Did you store the food too close to the air vent at the back of the

refrigerator? Move the food away from the air vent.

• Check that the refrigerator is level and stable.

• Is the back of the refrigerator too close to the wall and therefore

keeping air from circulating?

• Was anything dropped behind or under the refrigerator?

• A “ticking” sound is heard from inside the refrigerator. It is normal and

occurs because various accessories are contracting or expanding
according to the temperature of the refrigerator interior.

• Some heat is normal as anti-condensators are installed in the horizontal

hinged section of the refrigerator to prevent condensation.

• Is the refrigerator door ajar? Condensation can occur when you leave

the door open for a long time.

• Did you wait for 12 hours after installation of the water supply line

before making ice?

• Is the water line connected and the shut-off valve opened?

• Did you manually stop the ice making function?

• Is the freezer temperature too warm? Try setting the freezer

temperature lower.

• This is normal. The bubbling comes from the refrigerator coolant liquid

circulating through the refrigerator.

• Check for spoiled food.

• Foods with strong odors (for example, fi sh) should be tightly covered.

• Clean out your freezer periodically and throw away any spoiled or

suspicious food.

• Is the air vent blocked? Remove any obstructions so air can circulate

freely.

• Allow suffi cient space between the foods stored for effi cient air

circulation.

• Is the freezer drawer closed properly?
