Notes about PLASMACLUSTER operation
The ionizer inside your refrigerator releases clusters of
ions, which are collective masses of positive and negative
ions, into the freezer and refrigerator compartments.
These ion clusters inactivate airborne mold fungus.
• There may be a slight odors in the refrigerator. This is the
smell of ozone generated by the ionizer. The amount of
ozone is minimal, and quickly decomposes in the
refrigerator.

components, follow these tips.
• Wipe any food oils adhered to plastic components.
• Some household chemicals may cause damage, so use
only diluted washing-up liquid (soapy water).
• If undiluted detergent is used or soapy water is not wiped

Refrigeration reduces the rate of food spoilage.
STORING FOOD
BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE
To maximize the shelf life of perishable food products,
ensure that the food is the freshest possible quality. The
following is a general guide to help promote longer food
storage.
Fruit / Vegetables
To minimize moisture loss, fruit and vegetables should be
loosely enclosed in a plastic material e.g. wrap, bags (do
not seal) and place in the fruit and vegetable crisper.
Dairy Products & Eggs
• Most dairy products have a use by date on the outer
packaging which informs the recommended temperature
and shelf life of the product.
• Eggs should be stored in the Egg holder.
Meats / Fish / Poultry
• Place on a plate or dish and cover with paper or plastic
wrap.
• For larger cuts of meat, fish, or poultry, place to the rear
of the shelves.
• Ensure all cooked food is wrapped securely or placed in
an airtight container.
NOTE
• Evenly place the food on the shelves
to allow the cooling air to circulate
efficiently.
• Hot foods should be cooled before
storing. Storing hot foods increases
the temperature in the unit and
increases the risk of food spoilage.
• Do not block the outlet and inlet of the
cool air circulating circuit with foods
or containers; otherwise the foods will
not be evenly cooled throughout the
refrigerator.
• Keep the door securely closed.
For best freezing
• Quality of foods should be fresh.
• Freeze small quantities of food at a time to freeze them
quickly.
• Food should be properly stored or covered and the air
should be removed to seal tightly.
• Evenly place the food in the freezer.
• Label bags or containers to keep an inventory of freezing
food.
Before you call for service, check the following points.
ProblemSolution
The outside of a cabinet is hot
when touched.
When there is refrigerator
noise.
Frosting or dew generation
occurs inside or outside the
refrigerator.
The foods in the refrigerator
compartment freeze.
It smells in the compartment.• Wrapping is required for the foods with strong smell.
It is normal. The hot pipe is in the cabinet in order to prevent dew generation.
It is normal for the refrigerator to produce the following sounds.
• Loud noise produced by the compressor when operation starts
--- Sound becomes quieter after a while.
• Loud noise produced once a day by the compressor
--- Operating sound produced immediately after automatic defrost operation.
• Sound of flowing fluid (gurgling sound, fizzing sound)
--- Sound of refrigerant flowing in pipes (sound may become louder from time to time).
• Cracking or crunching sound, squeaking sound
--- Sound produced by expansion and contraction of inner walls and internal parts
during cooling.
This may occur in one of the following cases. Use a wet cloth for wiping frost and a dry
cloth for wiping dew.
• When the ambient humidity is high.
• When the door is frequently opened and closed.
• When foods containing plenty of moisture are stored. (Wrapping is required.)
• Is the refrigerator operated for a long time with refrigerator temp. control set at 0°C?
• Is the refrigerator operated for a long time with freezer temp. control set at -21°C?
• Low ambient temperature may cause placed foods to freeze even if refrigerator
temp. control is set to 6°C.
• Deodorizing unit cannot remove all of smell.
