Leave some space around food to allow circulation of air.
• Do not place hot food or evaporating liquid in the refrigerator.
• Always store food in closed containers or wrapped.
• To reduce humidity and avoid formation of frost, never place liquids in unsealed
containers in the refrigerator.
• Meat of all types, wrapped in packages, is recommended to be placed on the glass shelf
just above the vegetable bin, where the air is colder.
• You can put the fruits and vegetables into crisper without packing.
• To avoid the cold air escaping, try not to open the door too often, and not leave the door
open for a long time.
Freezer Compartment
Freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh foods and for storing frozen foods for the
period of time indicated on packaging, and for making ice cubes.
• For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh food properly, that is the packaging should
be air tight and shouldn’t leak. Special freezer bags, aluminum foil (heavy grade, in
doubt double wrap), polythene bags and plastic containers are ideal.
• Do not allow the fresh food to be frozen to come into contact with the already frozen
food.
• Always mark the date and the content on the pack and do not exceed the stated storage
time.
• In case of a power failure or malfunction, the freezer compartment will maintain a
sufciently low temperature for food storage. However, avoid opening the freezer door
to slow down the temperature rise within the freezer compartment.
• The maximum amount of fresh foods that can be loaded in the freezer within 24 hours is
indicated on the name plate ( see Freezing Capacity).
• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment.

Defrosting
Defrosting the Refrigerator compartment:
• Defrosting occurs automatically in refrigerator compartment during operation; the defrost
water is collected by the evaporating tray and evaporates automatically.
• The evaporating tray and the defrost water drain hole should be cleaned periodically with
defrost drain plug to prevent the water from collecting on the bottom of the refrigerator
instead of owing out.
• You can also pour ½ glass of the water to drain hole to clean inside.
Defrosting the Freezer compartment:
WARNING: Never use sharp metal tools, unless recommended by manufacturer, for this
operation as they can damage the refrigeration circuit.
After a period of time, frost will build up in certain areas in the freezer compartment. The
frost, accumulated in the freezer compartment, should be removed periodically (use the
plastic scraper if available).
Complete defrosting will become necessary if the frost layer exceeds 3-5 mm to maintain the
efciency of the freezer.
• The day before you defrost, set the thermostat dial to position “5” to freeze the foods
completely.
• During defrosting, frozen foods should be wrapped in several layers of paper and kept in
a cool place. The inevitable rise in temperature will shorten their storage life. Remember
to use these foods within a relatively short period of time.
• Set the thermostat knob to position “ “ and switch off the appliance.
• Leave the door open to accelerate defrosting. Remove the defrost water from the
compartment.
• Clean the interior by hand with lukewarm water and a little detergent.

Tips For Saving Energy
1.Install the appliance in a coll, well vantilated room , but not in direct sunlight and not near
heat source (radiator, cooker.. etc). Otherwise use an insulating plate.
2.Allow ward food and drinks to cool down outside the appliance.
3.When thawing frozen food, place it in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature
of the frozen food will help to cool the refrigerator compartment when it is thawing. So it
causes energy saving. If the frozen food is put out, it causes wastage of energy.
4.When placing, drinks and slops they must be covered. Otherwise humidity increases at
the appliance. Therefore the working time gets longer. Also covering drinks and slops
helps to save smell and taste.
5.When placing food and drinks, open the appliance door as briey as possible.
6.Keep close the covers of any different temrepature compartment in the appliance (crisper,
chiller ...etc ).
7.Door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
