than three weeks. But, remove all the food if you are going away for the three weeks or more.
Unplug the refrigerator and clean it, rinse and dry.
• T he appliance might not operate consistently (possibility of defrosting of contents or temperature
becoming too warm in the frozen food compartment) when sited for an extended period of
time below the cold end of the range of temperatures for which the refrigerating appliance is
designed.
• D o not store food which goes bad easily at low temperature, such as bananas, melons.

ice-freezing.
• Y our appliance is frost free, which means there is no need to manually defrost your appliance, as
this will be carried out automatically.
• T emperature rising during the defrost can comply with ISO requirement. But If you want to
prevent an undue rise in the temperature of the frozen food while defrosting the appliance,
please wrap the frozen food in several layers of paper such as newspaper.
• A ny increase in temperature of frozen food during defrosting can shorten its storage life.

Saving Energy Tips
• Install the appliance in a cool, dry room with adequate ventilation.
Ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight and never put it near a direct source of heat (radiator,
for example).
• Never block any vents or grilles on the appliance.
• Allow warm food to cool down before placing it in the appliance.
• Put frozen food in the refrigerator to thaw.
You can then use the low temperatures of the frozen products to cool food in the refrigerator.
• Do not keep the door of the appliance open for too long when putting food in or taking food out.
The shorter time for which the door is open, the less ice will form in the freezer.
• Clean the rear of the refrigerator regularly. Dust increases energy consumption.
• Do not set temperature colder than necessary.
• Ensure sufficient air exhaust at the refrigerator base and at the back wall of the refrigerator. Do not
cover air vent openings.
• Allow clearance to the right, left, back and top when installing. This will help reduce power
consumption and keep your energy bills lower.
