Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperature, such as bananas, melons.
•
Place the ice tray at the originally provided position by manufacturer in order to
achieve optimal ice-freezing.
•
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 paper such as newspaper.
