INSTALLATION
This refrigerating appliance is not intended to be used as a built-in appliance.
To fix stably, the appliance must be placed on a flat and solid surface. It should not be laid on any soft material.
Choose a location where there is no heat source. Keep the refrigerator away from direct sunlight or other
appliance producing heat.
Choose a dry and well-ventilated place where there is no corrosive air.
In order to improve efficiency of the cooling system and save energy, it is necessary to maintain good ventilation
around the appliance for the dissipation of heat. For this reason, sufficient clear space should be available around
the refrigerator.
Place the appliance against a wall with a free distance that not exceeding 75mm but more than 50mm.
FIRST USE
Before the use of the refrigerator, remove all the packages, including bottom cushion and foam pads and rubber
belts in the refrigerator.
Adjust the feet and clear the outside and inside of the refrigerator with warm cloth.
Do not start the refrigerator immediately after vertical placement. Only start it after 2-6 hours standing to ensure
its proper operation.
To prevent damage to the power cord and any consequence incidents, the power cord should not be covered
by the refrigerator or other objects. Before switching on the refrigerator, please check the voltage range of the
refrigerator carefully if the same as that of the power supply.
When the refrigerator is first installed, allow it to stabilize at normal operating temperatures for 2-3 hours prior
to filling it with fresh or frozen foods.
If operation is interrupted, wait for 5 minutes before restarting.
TEST
Clean the parts of the refrigerator with lukewarm water on a soft cloth or with a neutral detergent and with
clear water, then wipe them dry.
Notes: Electric parts of the refrigerator can only be wiped by dry cloth.
Turn the thermostat knob on the “3” position and turn on electricity. The compressor and the light inside the
refrigerator begin to work.
Close the door and wait 30 minutes. If the temperature in the freezer compartment decreased obviously, it
shows that the refrigerator system works well. When the refrigerator operates for a period of time, the
temperature controller will automatically set the temperature on conditions that the door is not opened too
often.
If the above steps are successful, the trial operations are finished. The refrigerator works normally.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The temperature in the refrigerator compartment and in the freezer compartment is controlled by the
temperature controller installed on the right side of the refrigerator compartment.
Turn the thermostat knob to regulate the temperature inside the refrigerator.
The marks on the knob are not the exact number of the degrees of temperature but the temperature grades to
“0” from “7”. The first grade corresponds to a forced STOP of the refrigeration and the 7th grade corresponds
to the lowest temperature the refrigerator can produce. Turn the knob from "1" position to "7" position, the
temperature decreases continuously.
Set the thermostat knob to "3-4" position for a normal use.
Appliance thermostat has 7 settings. The appliance assures that temperature is maintained as long as it is in
operation and that it is used in normal conditions of use. The temperature inside the appliance can be
influenced by many factors: ambient temperature, sun exposure, number of doors opening and amount
of food
stored… The slight changes in temperature are perfectly normal.
