INSTALLATION

Installation
1. Install on a rigid and level floor.
2. Please use this refrigerator between the room temperature of 10° C to 43°C.
Sufficient performance may not be obtained, if the room temperature is too low or too high.
3. Do not install the refrigerator where there is a direct sunlight or are other heat sources.
4. Install in an atmosphere which is dry or has air ventilation.
5. The refrigerator requires enough air ventilation space around the cabinet to have efficient cooling
performance. Keep the space of at least 30 cm over the top and 10 cm at rear and 5 cm at both sides for proper air circulation.
6. Make the refrigerator stand horizontally by adjusting the leveling legs (adjustor) .
As a First Step to Use
1. Cleaning inside the refrigerator. Wipe the surface gently with wet, soft cloth.
2. Connect the refrigerator to an exclusive wall power outlet. Surely use with the rated voltage.
3. Allow enough duration for sufficient cooling. It must take about 4 hours to cool down and
could even take about 24 hours when the ambient temperature is high.
Food storage
1. Keep enough space between one food and the other. A lot of food placed too close together may obstruct the flow of cold air.
2. Store food being cooled down. Putting warm food in the refrigerator may raise the inside temperature and result in damage
of food and waste of electricity.
3. Do not block the cold air vent. This will adversely affect the cold air flow and may not keep the temperature inside even.
4. Using food wrap or sealed containers prevents the food from drying or transition of smells.
