loading any food until it autos tops at the desired temperature.
Usually it takes 2 or 3hours, then set the thermostatic dial at the
setting desired and put foods in the refrigerator.

the thermostatic dial. A medium setting of the thermostatic dial is
the most suitable for general operation.
3. Defrost the freezing compartment whenever the layer of frost on
the surface of the evaporator reaches 3 or 4 mm. When defrosting,
remove all food and set the thermostat at the “OFF” position. Put
the drip tray under the evaporator to collect melted water. After the
frost has melted, discard the melted water and dry the interior of
refrigerator. The refrigerator can then be restarted by turning its
thermostat to the desired setting.
Cautions for Use

open, the higher the electric consumption. Overloading the
appliance can lead to a malfunction.
2. Do not place objects which are too heavy, pointed or corroded in
the Fridge.
3. Leave a 10 minute interval between unplugging and then plugging
in the Fridge.
