Haier HB21FWRSS Installation And User Manual page 25

Foods can be stored in sound condition for several hours after a power
failure. During a power failure do not put new food into the fridge or
freezer, and open the door as infrequently as possible.
If you are aware there will be a power failure ahead of time, make cubed
ice and put it in the upper part of the fresh food compartment.
If the temperature becomes warmer in the freezer due to a power failure or other
malfunction, the expiry date on frozen food may change, and food quality may decrease.
If you do not want to use the fridge for a long period of time, remove the
power cable from the socket. Cut off all power supply and water
sources. Clean the fridge as directed in this manual. Leave the fridge
door open to prevent any odours from accumulating.
Normally the fridge performs best when it is left on to run continously rather than
unplugging and energising it frequently.
If you will be on vacation for a long time, disconnect the appliance from
the power source and water supply, and take out all food. Clean the
interior of the fridge once any frost has melted. Wipe it clean to
remove any food residue that could cause odours. If the ambient
temperature is below freezing, call qualified service personnel to drain
the water system. This prevents leakage and keeps the pipes from
bursting due to frozen water.
- Disconnect the appliance from the power supply. Remove all food.
Fix all moveable parts such as fresh food, freezer shelves and crispers
with a good adhesive tape.
- Close the fridge doors and drawers and fix with tape to prevent
opening during transportation.
- During transportation, the maximum slant angle must not be over 45
degrees (from vertical standing) to prevent damage to the cooling
system.
- Do not attempt to move or carry this appliance by using the
refrigerator handle. This can damage the appliance and may lead to
personal injury.
It is suggested that you should not lay the refrigerator flat
whilst transporting. This could cause oil to drain away from
the compressor. If you must transport in this way, allow the
fridge to stand vertically for 4-6 hours so oil can return into
the compressor before turning on the fridge power.
