place for easy reference and a good experience with the

appliance.

The refrigerator contains a refrigerant gas (R600a:

isobutane) and insulating gas (cyclopentane), with high

compatibility with the environment, that are, however,

inflammable.

Caution: risk of fire

If the refrigerant circuit should be damaged:

Avoid opening flames and sources of ignition.

Thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is

situated.

should not be affected if the failure lasts for less than 20

hours. If the failure is longer, then the food should be

checked and eaten immediately or cooked and then

refrozen.

If you find that the lid of the chest freezer is difficult to

open just after you have closed it, don’t worry. This is

due to the pressure difference which will equalize and

allow the lid to be opened normally after a few minutes.

Do not connect the appliance to the electricity supply

until all packing and transit protectors have been

removed.

Coolers. When the material that requires a strict control

of storage temperatures is to be stored, it is possible that

it will deteriorate or an uncontrolled reaction may occur

that can cause risks.

Before performing any operation, unplug the power cord

from the power socket.

On delivery, check to make sure that the product is not

damaged and that all the parts and accessories are in

or reduction of insulating effect.

Do not spray or wash the refrigerator; do not put the refrigerator in moist places easy to be splashed with water so as not to affect the electrical insulation properties of the refrigerator.

The refrigerator is placed in a well-ventilated indoor place; the ground shall be flat, and sturdy (rotate left or right to adjust the wheel for leveling if unstable).

The top space of the refrigerator shall be greater than 30cm, and

The refrigerator should be placed against a wall with a free distance

more than 10cm to facilitate the opening and closing and heat

dissipation.

2.6 Starting

Before initial start, keep the refrigerator still for half an hour before connecting it to power supply.

Before putting any fresh or frozen foods, the refrigerator shall have run

for 2-3 hours, or for above 4 hours in summer when the ambient temperature is high.

Spare enough space for convenient opening of the doors and drawers or

statement by the distributor.

2.7 Energy saving tips

The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight. Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading the appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil. Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the appliance. Appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the appliance less efficient. Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.

The low temperature freezing chamber may keep food fresh for a long time and it is mainly used to store frozen foods and making ice. The freezing chamber is suitable for storage of meat, fish, rice balls and other foods not to be consumed in short term. Chunks of meat are preferably to be divided into small pieces for easy access. Please be noted food shall be consumed within the shelf time. The temperature should be set to “quick-freeze”, when you want to refrigerate foods quickly.

Note: Storage of too much food during operation after the initial connection to power may adversely affect the freezing effect of the refrigerator. Foods stored shall not block the air outlet; or otherwise the freezing effect will also be adversely affected.
