Operation Instructions

Defrosting
The surface of evaporator ices up when
the refrigerator is working. When the frost
layer is thick as 3mm, the refrigerator must
be defrosted and cleaned. Otherwise, it
may results in lower efficiency and high
energy consumption.
1. Take out foods and ice tray. Keep the
door open.
2. Set the temperature at ‘0’ position.
After defrosting, dry the water tray and
then replace it in the refrigerator. Reset
the temperature regulator to its original
position.
Making ice
Fill the 3/4 ice tray with water and then
place it in the lower part of the evaporator.
Set the temperature regulator at ‘7’.
After making ice, reset the temperature
regulator to its original position. Otherwise
foods may get frozen.
To take out the ice cubes
1. Knock the ice tray lightly to loose it.
2. Hold the bottom of the ice tray in warm
water for a while.
3. Twist the ice tray to loose the ice cubes.
Lamp and lamp replacement
Lamp:220-240V, 15W
