beneficial for bottom heat
dissipation and can avoid
fire.
The refrigerator shall be
placed in an environment
which is dry, has good
ventilation, far from direct
sunshine and heat source.
The refrigerator shall be
placed on the flat and firm
surface. If the ground is not
flat, adjust the adjusting leg
to keep it level.
Never place the refrigerator
into a too cold environment
that may get frozen.
Warm prompt:
--When handling the refrigerator, at least two persons are required – one lifts the top of
rear part, the other one handles the bottom (if one part is clamped, it is quite
dangerous and may cause accident).
--When moving the refrigerator, the lower runner may damage and scratch the floor. If you
need to move the refrigerator for a long distance, the internal accessories shall be fixed
using adhesive tape. Otherwise, the accessories may get damaged due to crashing each
other.
--Please place the refrigerator in the position with small vibration or little exposed to
vibration. For users in the area where earthquake often occurs, please fix the refrigerator
against the wall or pole. Otherwise, the falling of refrigerator will cause accident.
--Sufficient clearance shall be left around. If the clearance is too small or place goods on the
top or close to the side, or paste on the sides, the heat dissipation of refrigerator will be
affected, and thus to cause unnecessary electric energy waste as well as burn out of the wall
and other goods; the contact between the back and wall will cause vibration and noise;
--Adjust the front part and adjusting leg of the refrigerator to level it. Unlevel of the
refrigerator will cause vibration and noise.

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 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 appliance.
Appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. 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.
Please refer to the product introduction picture on page 5 for the placement of accessories.
