Warning
·Unless recommended by the manufacturer, no machinery equipment or other means can be adopted to speed up the
defrosting process.
·Unless recommended by the manufacturer, no electrical appliances can be used in the food compartments.
·The R600a refrigerant and cyclopentane foaming materials used in this freezer are all flammable materials, so old freezers
should be isolated from any fire, disposal by burning is forbidden.
New Freezer
· Before using a new freezer, remove all packaging materials, including the base pad, as well as the foam pads and adhesive
tape in the freezer.
·Use a damp cloth to clean the freezer inside and outside (A small amount of detergent can be added to the warm water and
finally clean water should be used to clean the product).
·A separate socket with two poles grounded should be prepared, and it should not share the same multipurpose socket with
other appliances.
·Please be sure to connect the earth wire well. The socket must have reliable earth connection.
Transport and placement
Transport
·Do not have the appliance upside down, horizontally placed, compressed or shaken. When moving the fridge, do not tilt the
product more than a 45 degree angle.
·When moving, do not use excessive pressure on the door or top cover to avoid deformation.
·The freezer can be drawn backwards slightly (no more than 20 degrees), so that it could be moved in a short distance using
the rear casters for rolling.
Placement
·The appliance should be placed in a well-ventilated place. Keep it away from heat and direct sunlight. Do not situate it close
to damp or water to prevent rusting or the insulation becoming weakened.
·The space above the product should be no less than 30cm and its two sides and back must be kept no less than 10cm away
from the walls to facilitate the door opening and closing and to allow heat dissipation.
·The freezer should be placed on a flat and solid ground. (If not, it can be leveled by adjusting the leveling toes)
Note
The power line should not be compressed by the appliance or other objects, to avoid any accident caused by damage of the
power line.
Before connecting to the power source, please carefully check whether the appliance has its voltage range identical to the
power supply.
Make sure the freezer is correctly and steadily placed on stable flooring, and that all safety precautions are
clearly understood.
1. Power on
NOTE:
THE PRODUCT MUST STAND IN SITUE FOR 12 HOURS BEFORE SWITCHING ON.
After power on, the freezer will automatically enter the factory default status.
2. Adding food to the freezer
Recommended
: Allow the freezer to work for a period of time and the required temperature to be reached or the compressor
has stopped working for the first time, and then add the food into the freezer, which is conducive to the first food
preservation.
Tips: When the temperature setting is changed or new food is added, the freezer
needs a period of time to have its internal temperature balanced. The time length
depends on the change of the temperature setting, the ambient temperature, the
door-opening frequency and the amount of stored food, etc.
·The freezer should have its temperature below –18ćfor long-time preservation of food.
·After purchasing pre-frozen food it be kept in the freezer as soon as possible before it defrosts.
·The hot food should be cooled to the room temperature before adding to the freezer.
·Fruit and vegetables should not be kept in the freezer to avoid frost damage, and no glass containers filled with liquid should
be kept in the freezer to avoid the glass bottle or container from smashing when the liquid expands.
·The frozen food should be sorted with the similar food kept together, to help prevent the doors being unnecessarily open for
a long time, wasting cold energy.
Freezer drawers
The drawers are used to keep the food frozen, and pieces of meat can be cut into small pieces before storage to facilitate
eating. When taking food, first pull the drawer open, push the tray above the drawer in horizontally, and then take out the
food in the lower drawer.
Note: Remember to shut the freezer drawer after use.
