Using your refrigerator

The internal temperature of the refrigerator is controlled by a potentiometer installed in the fresh food compartment. Its internal temperature varies with the door opening frequency, ambient temperature, and installation location of the refrigerator.
Fridge temperature adjustment The fridge temperature can be adjusted by means of the temperature control knob switch.

  1. The temperature gets gradually decreased as you dial the temperature control knob switch from the position “1” to “5”.
  2. To set the knob switch at the “Optimal” position can meet the daily normal use.
  3. When you need to strengthen the cooling of the fresh food compartment, dial the temperature control knob switch in the Coldest direction, so as to extend the compressor running time, with the temperature decreased accordingly.

Note: It is not recommended to set the temperature control knob at the “Coldest” position for a long time.

Freezer temperature  adjustment
When the temperature control knob switch in the fresh food compartment remains unchanged, the freezer temperature becomes gradually decreased as the slider of FREEZER AIRFLOW is adjusted from “MIN” to “MAX”.

Note: During the actual use, the freezer air regulating lever may be frozen due to high humidity or frequent opening of the door.  In such case, do not adjust the regulating lever by force; Instead, you are recommended to use a hot towel to heat it locally, so that the frozen air regulating lever gets thawed before being adjusted to avoid damage.

Recommended optimal temperature modes

SEASON SUGGESTED MODES
In summer (higher than 35℃)

 

 Normal condition (spring and autumn)

 

 In winter (lower than 16℃)
Tips    It is recommended not to set the regulating lever at the MAX position for a long time.

CAUTION: Avoid setting both the fridge temperature mode and the freezer temperature mode to be MAX simultaneously,  especially in the summer season. This may lead to the fresh food compartment cooling down slowly, thus an unpleasant user experience.

IN USE

  1. The appliance might not operate consistently (possibility of defrosting of contents or temperature becoming too warm in the  frozen food compartment) when sited for an extended period of time below the cold end of the range of temperatures for which  the refrigerating appliance is designed
  2. The information about the climate range of the appliance is provided on the rated plate.
  3. The fact that the internal temperatures could be affected by such factors as the location of the refrigerating appliance, ambient temperature and the frequency of door opening, and, if appropriate, a warning that the setting of any temperature control device might have to be varied to allow for these factors
  4. The fact that effervescent drinks should not be  stored in food freezer compartments or cabinets oin low-temperature compartments or cabinets, that some products such as water ices should not be consumed too cold
  5. The need to not exceed the storage time(recommended by the food manufacturers for any kind of food

Storage of food
Position different food in different compartments according to be below the table

Refrigerator compartment

Type of food

Door or balconies of fridge compartment · Foods with natural preservatives, such as jams, juices, drinks, condiments.
· Do not store perishable foods
Crisper drawers (salad drawer) ·  Fruits, herbs and vegetables should be placed separately in the crisper bin
· Do not store bananas, onions, potatoes, garlic in the refrigerator
Fridge shelf   – middle · Dairy products, eggs
Fridge  shelf  – top · Foods that do not need cooking, such as ready-to-eat foods, deli meats, leftovers.
Freezer drawer(s)/tray · Foods for long-term storage

· Bottom drawer for raw meat, poultry, fish

· Middle drawer for frozen vegetables, chips.

· Top tray for ice cream, frozen fruit, frozen baked goods.

  • It’s suggested to set the temperature at 4°C in the fridge compartment, and, whether possible, at -18°C in the freezer compartment.
  • For most food categories, the longest storage time in the fridge compartment is achieved with colder temperatures. Since some particular products (as fresh fruits and vegetables) may be damaged with colder temperatures, it is suggested to keep them in the crisper drawers, whenever present. If not present, maintain an average setting of the thermostat.
  • For frozen food, refer to the storage time written on the food packaging. This storage time is achieved whenever the setting respects the reference temperatures of the compartment (one-star -6°C, two stars -12°C, three stars -18°C)
  1.  The cook dishes can be put into the refrigerator to keep fresh after their temperature decreases to room temperature.
  2. Egg pockets and bottle pockets for eggs, butter, milk and bottle drinks,etc. Storage of food or containers  should be left between the gap, so as not to affect the air-conditioning cycle
  3. The arrangement of food for storage, in particular, the need to avoid cross-contamination, such as food to be stored should be wrapped with clean plastic film or fresh-keeping paper, then distributed to several frames even to avoid contamination and the loss of water and smell mixture.
  4. Fruits and vegetables should be put into the salad crisper to prevent excessive evaporation of water and freshness.
  5. Cool hot food down to room temperature before storing otherwise consumption of electricity will increase and would lead to frost forming inside.
  6. In the case of refrigerating appliances with chill compartments, a statement to the effect that some types of fresh vegetables and fruits are sensitive to cold, and that therefore they are not suitable for storage in this kind of compartment.
  7. The fact that effervescent drinks should not be stored in food freezer compartments or cabinets or in low-temperature compartments or cabinets, and that some products such as water ices should not be consumed too cold

Tips for keeping food perfect in the Fridge

  1. Cooked meats should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats to avoid a bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats on a plate which is large enough to collect juices and cover it with cling film or foil.
  2. This allows cold air to circulate around the Fridge, ensuring all parts of the Fridge are kept cool.
  3. To prevent transfer of flavors and drying out, food should be separately packed or covered. Fruit and vegetables need not be wrapped.
  4. Allow pre-cooked food to cool down before placing in the Fridge. This will help to stop the internal temperature of the Fridge from rising.
  5. To prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the number of times you open the door. When returning from shopping, sort foods to be kept in your Fridge before opening the door. Only open the door to put food in or take it out.

Interruption of power supply or failure of the refrigerating system
The care required with regard to frozen food in storage in the event of an extended non-running of the refrigerating appliance (interruption of power supply or failure of the refrigerating system)

  1. Do not open the refrigerator door as much as possible so that even in hot summer food can be safely and freshly kept for hours.
  2. If you have a power outage notice in advance 1) Please an hour in advance will be temperature control stalls transferred to a strong cold position, so that the refrigerator is fully frozen.
    (Note that this time do not store new food!) To be restored after the timely supply of temperature control gear to the original location. 2) You can also make some ice, with a watertight container, and put it in the upper part of the freezer. So that it is necessary to extend the time for fresh food to be deposited.

Preparations for freezing

  1. Leave cooked food to cool completely.
  2. Chill food in a Fridge before freezing if possible.
  3. Consider how you want to cook the food before freezing it.
  4. Don’t freeze food in metal containers as you may want to microwave it straight from the Freezer.
  5. Use special Freezer bags available from supermarkets, Freezer film, polythene bags, plastic containers, aluminum foil for acidic foods (such as citrus fruits). Do not use thin cling film or glass. Do not use used food containers (unless cleaned thoroughly first).
  6. Exclude as much air from the container as possible. You could buy a special vacuum pump which sucks excessive air out of the packaging.
  7. Leave a small amount of “air space” when freezing liquids, to allow for expansion.
  8. You can use the space in the Freezer most efficiently if you freeze liquids (or solids with liquids, such as stew) in square blocks. This is known as “performing” Pour the liquid into a polythene bag that is inside a square-sided container. Freeze it like this, then remove it from the container and seal the bag.

Tips for shopping for frozen foods

  1. When you are buying frozen food,  look at the Storage Guidelines on the packaging. You will be able to store each item of frozen food for the period shown against the star rating. This is usually the period stated as “Best, Before”, found on the front of the packaging.
  2. Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop where you buy your frozen foods.
  3. Make sure the frozen food package is in perfect condition.
  4. Always buy frozen products last on your shopping trip or visit to the supermarket.
  5. Try to keep frozen food together whilst shopping, and on the journey home as this will help to keep the food cooler.
  6. Don’t buy frozen food unless you can freeze it straight away. Special insulated bags can be bought from most supermarkets and hardware shops. These keep frozen food cold for longer.
  7. For some foods, thawing before cooking is unnecessary. Vegetables and pasta can be added directly to boiling water or steam cooked. Frozen sauces and soups can be put into a saucepan and heated gently until thawed.
  8. Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. Freeze food in small quantities, it freezes faster, takes less time to thaw, and enables you to eat it in the quantity you need.
  9. First, estimate the amount of food you will be freezing. If you are freezing large amounts of fresh food, remember to turn the control dial to the low-temperature range. This will lower the temperature in the Freezer, freezing your food quicker and
    helping to keep the goodness in. However, you should do this sparingly to conserve energy.

Tips for Water dispenser (If available)
The refrigerator includes a water dispenser which makes it easier to fill your cup of water and have access to cold water almost immediately. The water dispenser includes one tank of 2.5 liters of water which has to be filled out. To use a water dispenser,  follow the instructions below:

  1. Open the refrigerator door to ensure the water dispenser is fixed well.
  2. Open the filler cover of the water tank, slowly fill the water tank to prevent any spills until the tank is filled. Then close the filler cover of the water tank. See image C.
  3. Once the water tank is full, set the thermostat at the lowest mode or the Fast Cool mode, and one hour later you can dispense water for drinking. See image D.
  4. When using the water dispenser, some water may drip and accumulate at the bottom of the water dispenser. Please wipe it with a cloth when necessary.
  5. The maximum fill must be lower than the tank cover as indicated by the maximum fill line.

NOTE: Don’t take away the cup until no water drop.
Defrosting
This appliance is designed for automatic defrosting, no need to defrost by hand.
Moving the Fridge/Freezer
Location
Do not place your Fridge/Freezer near a heat source, eg. a Cooker, boiler, or radiator. Also, avoid direct sunlight in out-buildings or sun lounges.
Leveling the Fridge/Freezer
Make sure the Fridge/Freezer is level. Use the rotating
leveling feet at the front. If the Fridge/Freezer is not level, the doors and magnetic seal alignments will be affected and may cause your Fridge/Freezer to work incorrectly.
After the Fridge/Freezer is in place, it can be used after 4 hours. This allows time for the coolant to settle.

It is important to have WEEE subjected to specific treatments, in order to remove and dispose properly  all pollutants, and recover and recycle all materials.
Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that
WEEE does not become an environmental issue; it is essential to follow some basic rules:
– WEEE should not be treated as household waste;
– WEEE should be handed over to the relevant collection points managed by the municipality or by registered companies. In many countries, for large WEEE, the home collection could be present.
In many countries, when you buy a new appliance, the old one may be returned to the retailer who has to collect it free of charge on a one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment is of equivalent type and has the same functions as the supplied equipment.
