rapid cooling, rapid freezing, holiday and compartment
temperature adjustment, but it can operate under one mode
only at one time. For instance, when refrigerator operates
under the intelligent state, if any work mode, i.e. rapid cooling,
rapid freezing, holiday or compartment temperature
adjustment, is set, the refrigerator will automatically exit the
intelligent mode and operate under the set work mode.
Description of functions:
Rapid cooling

mode, the refrigerator is in the state of energy conservation, so food
should not be stored in refrigerator compartment or variable
temperature compartment for a long time. When this function is
enabled, the sign “ ” lights on.
Attention:
1. Quick cooling and quick freezing can realize the rapid
cooling in the refrigerator compartment and the rapid
freezing in the freezer compartment, but power
consumption increases simultaneously.
2. After rapid cooling or rapid freezing satisfies the

Defrosting
◆
℃
◆
When the frost layer in freezer compartment is about 5mm
thick, it must be defrosted manually. Disconnect the power supply,
take out all foods in the freezer compartment, and cover them with
clean cloth to prevent meltdown of foods. If the frost layer is loose
and soft, the freezer compartment door is left open for natural
defrosting. If the frost layer is thick, a bowl of warm water (about
50 ) is placed into the freezer compartment to speed up
defrosting, and the freezer compartment door is left open for frost
melting. After defrosting, wipe clean the walls of freezer
compartment and place the foods back.
The refrigerator compartment is featured by automatic
defrosting, and the melt-water of frost flows into the catch tray
above the compressor and automatically evaporates (but the
discharge hole must be kept unblocked).
Except otherwise recommended by manufacturer, do not use
any mechanical device or take any other means to speed up the
process of defrosting.
