Remove the external & internal packaging.
When unpacking the appliance please check for any damage. If damage is found, do not connect to the power
source and contact the Authorized Service Provider.
Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4 hours. This will reduce
the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation. Remove any protective

INSTALLING THE REFRIGERATOR
This appliance is designed to be free standing only, and should not be recessed or built in.
Place your appliance on a solid, level floor that is strong enough to support the appliance when it is fully loaded. Use

some neutral soup so as to remove the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dry accordingly.

at different heights. To make these adjustments proceed as follows: gradually pull the
balcony in the direction of the arrows until it comes free, then reposition as required.
HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
HINTS FOR FRESH FOOD REFRIGERATION
To obtain the best performance:
•Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator.
•Do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavor.
HINTS FOR REFRIGERATION
•Make (all types): wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelves above the vegetable drawer.
•For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most.
•Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc...: these should be covered and may be placed on any shelf.
•Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s) provided.
•Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminum foil or
polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
•Milk bottle: these should have a cap and should be stored in the balconies on the door.

Care and Maintenance
CLEANING THE APPLIANCE
Upon installation of your new appliance, it is recommended that it be cleaned thoroughly, and cleaned once a month
after that.
The appliance may not be connected to mains during cleaning. Danger of electrical shock. Before cleaning the
appliance, switch off and unplug the appliance from mains. Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture
could accumulate in electrical components and hot vapors can lead to the damage of plastic parts. The appliance
must be dry before it is placed back into service.
The outside of the appliance should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water. Dry the interior and exterior
with a soft cloth.
It is recommended that the unit be cleaned each time it is defrosted to help keep the unit odour free and running
efficiently.
Do not use oils, abrasive cleaners, petroleum products, acids or alkaline detergents, as they can damage the
appliance.
REPLACE THE LAMP
CAUTION: Before replacing the lamp, shall disconnect the appliance from mains power supply.
Lamp specification is listed in rating label.
Follow below process to replace the lamp:
1. Set the temperature regulation knob at number “0” to switch off the appliance.
2. Unplug the appliance to make sure the appliance is disconnected from main power supply.
3. Remove the screw of the lamp cover.
4. Pull the lamp cover out.
5. Unscrew the lamp.
6. Fit new lamp according to the opposite direction, then replace the lamp cover and screw.
7. Plug in the appliance and regulate the knob to right position.
MOVING THE APPLIANCE
Remove all the food.
Securely tape down all loose items inside the appliance. Tape the doors shut.
Be sure the appliance stays in the upright position during transportation.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
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. Foods that coo or freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance. This cuts down on
frost build-up inside the freezer and bad odors.
The freezer compartment should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper towels. Liners interfere with
cold air circulation, making the freezer 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.
When adding fresh food, try to add it to the bottom of the freezer, surrounded by food that is already frozen. After
adding fresh food to the freezer, allow 24 hours for it to be fully frozen before adding any more fresh food.
