2.4 Changing the Light
2.5 Starting to use
• The refrigerator must stand upright for two hours before connecting power
when it is first started.
• Run the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours, or 4+ hours in the summer, before
loading fresh or frozen food.
2.6 Energy Saving Tips
• To replace the LED bulbs, disconnect the power supply before replacing
the bulb; hold and remove the light bulb cover. Remove the old bulb by
unscrewing it counterclockwise. Replace it with a new bulb (15W) by
screwing it clockwise, and make sure it is fixed in the bulb holder tightly.
Reassemble the light cover and reconnect your freezer to the power supply.
• The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from
heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance.
Overloading the appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Food that
freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
• Be sure to wrap food properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them
in the appliance to cut down frost build-up inside the appliance.
• Do not line storage bin with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper towels.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the appliance less efficient.
• Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches.
Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon
as possible.

4 MAINTENANCE OF REFRIGERATOR
4.1 Cleaning
4.2 Defrost
4.3 Stop Using
• Clean dust behind the refrigerator and on the ground to improve the cooling effect and
energy saving.
• Check the door gasket regularly to make sure there is no debris. Clean the door gasket
with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or diluted detergent.
• Clean the interior of the refrigerator regularly to avoid odor.
• Please turn off the power before cleaning interior, remove all food, shelves, drawers, etc.
• Use a soft cloth or sponge to clean the inside of the refrigerator, with two tablespoons
of baking soda and a quart of warm water. Then rinse with water and wipe clean. After
cleaning, open the door and let it dry naturally before turning on the power.
• For areas that are difficult to clean (such as narrow gaps or corners), it is recommended
to wipe them regularly with a soft rag, soft brush, etc. to ensure no contaminants or
bacteria accumulate in these areas.
• Do not use soap, detergent, scrub powder, spray cleaner, etc., as these may cause odors in
the interior of the refrigerator or contaminate food.
• Clean the bottle frame, shelves and drawers with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water
or diluted detergent. Dry with a soft cloth or dry naturally.
• Wipe the outer surface of the refrigerator with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water,
detergent, etc., and then wipe dry.
• Do not use hard brushes, clean steel balls, wire brushes, abrasives (such as toothpastes),
organic solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, banana oil, etc.), boiling water, acid or alkaline
items, which may damage the cooler surface and interior. Boiling water and organic
solvents such as benzene may deform or damage plastic parts.
• Do not rinse directly with water or other liquids during cleaning to avoid short circuits or
damage to the electrical insulation.
• Power off the refrigerator and disconnect the plug from the wall socket. Open the door
and remove all the food to a cool place. Clean the drain pipe, paying special attention to
cleaning the compressor compartment water draining tray to avoid water overflowing
onto the ground. It is recommended to remove the frost by a plastic scraper, or let the
temperature rise naturally until the frost melts. Then wipe away the remaining ice and
water, and plug in the freezer. After defrosting, put all food back into the refrigerator, and
power on.
• Power failure: Food can usually be preserved for a couple of hours in case of power failure.
It is recommended to reduce the frequency of opening the door and to not put fresh food
into the refrigerator.
• Long-time nonuse: Please unplug unused refrigerator for cleaning. Keep the door open to
avoid odor.
• Moving: Do not turn upside or shake the refrigerator, the carrying angle can not be greater
than 45°.
• Do not hold the door and hinge when moving this unit.
Continuous operation is recommended when the refrigerator is started.
To prevent affecting the refrigerator’s service life, please do not stop the
refrigerator under normal circumstances.

5 TROUBLESHOOTING
Inoperation
Odor
Long-term operation
of compressor
Light is out
Doors cannot be
properly closed
Loud noise
Door seal fails
to be tight
Hot housing
Surface condensation
Abnormal noise
Water pan
overflows
Ensure the refrigerator is plugged in and connected to power
Check that the voltage is not low
The temperature control knob is not set to “OFF“
Thoroughly clean the interior of the refrigerator.
Do not overload the refrigerator
Do not put hot contents in the refrigerator
Note that it is normal that the refrigerator operates for a longer time in
summer when the ambient temperature is higher
Check whether the refrigerator is connected to power supply. If the light
is damaged, have it replaced by a specialist.
Check for any items blocking the refrigerator door or unbalanced items.
Check if the refrigerator is tilted
Ensure that the refrigerator is sitting on a flat and stable surface
Ensure that the refigerator accessories are properly placed
Remove foreign matter from the door seal.
Heat the door seal and then cool it for restoration (or use an electrical drier
or a hot towel for heating).
Heat dissipation of the built-in condenser via the housing is normal.
When housing becomes hot due to high ambient temperature or storage of
too much food, provide ventilation to facilitate heat dissipation.
The compressor may cause a buzzing sound when starting up or
shutting down.
The solenoid valve or electric switch valve may create a clattering
sound which is normal and does not affect the operation.
Condensation on the exterior of the door seals is normal when the ambient
humidity is too high. Wipe condensation with a clean towel.
Heavy defrosting may occur when there is too much food in the
refrigerator or if the food contains too much water.
Frosting may occur if the doors are not properly closed, as entry of air
could cause frosting which could increase water overflow during defrost.
