Making water-Ice
* Pour water into the water ice mould up to three-quarters of the mould
volume, and then place the mould in the freezing compartment.

warm water for a short time.
DEFROSTING CLEANING AND COMMISSIONING
Defrosting the cold storage compartment
The cold storage compartment is designed for automatic defrosting. Frost
formed on the back wall will melt and flow via the drainpipe to the
evaporating container over the compressor on the back of the refrigerator,
where the heat generated by the compressor will evaporate the water.
Caution: Always keep the drain over the vegetable and fruit tray clear to
ensure the normal flow of defrosted water. Use the rod provided to clear
any blockages.
Defrosting the freezer
After a period of operation, a layer of frost will form on the surface of the
freezer. Additional electricity will be consumed if this layer becomes too thick.
The defrosting process must be carried out when a thick layer of frost has
been formed.
To defrost the freezer, first disconnect the power by unplugging the
refrigerator, and then remove any food from the refrigerator and place it in a
cool place. Use a plastic defrosting tool.
After ice and frost are melted, wipe up the inside of the freezer compartment.
Caution: Never use a metal tool or electrical heater for defrosting.
After the defrosting is completed, plug in the refrigerator and it starts
operation again.
Power failure
Even in summer, food can be stored in the refrigerator for a few hours after a
power failure.
* Don't put additional food into the refrigerator during a power failure.
* Avoid opening the door during power failures
* If prior notice of a power failure is given, make some ice and put it in a
container in the top of the cold storage compartment.
Caution: temperature in the refrigerator will rise during a power failure or in
the event of technical problems, and the storage period will be reduced.
Cleaning
The refrigerator should be cleaned regularly to prevent the formation of bad
odors.
* Disconnect the power before cleaning the refrigerator.
* Do not use a hard brush, steel brush, detergent, gasoline or other solvents,
hot water, acid or alkali for cleaning.
* Wipe water drops on the surface of the refrigerator with a soft cloth.
(1) Do not use excessive amounts of water for cleaning the refrigerator
(2) Use a dry cloth to clean the switch, the lamp and the temperature
controller
* Always keep the rubber door seal clean
* Clean the back and sides of the refrigerator regularly.
Cessation of Operation
If the power failure lasts for an extended period, unplug the refrigerator and
clean the refrigerator as previously described.
Keep the door of refrigerator open when the power is turned off to prevent
any food remaining in the compartment from producing bad odors.
During Vacations
* Remove any food from refrigerator is the vacation is short. Turn the
temperature selection knob to the proper position, and make sure that the
door of the refrigerator is properly closed.
* If the vacation is long, take out the food from the refrigerator and
disconnect the power. When the frost inside melts, clean and dry the
compartment.
Discarding

may get trapped in.
Moving the refrigerator

* Remove any food
* Tightly close the door with tape
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Events below are the problems:
* The temperature of the refrigerator and the compressor will rise and the
compressor will run for comparatively longer periods when the refrigerator is
first started.
* Wipe water drops on the external surface of the refrigerator with a soft
cloth.
* When the refrigerator is opened frequently or stay open too long in humid
seasons, the cavity will be dampened.
* A slight sound will be heard when the liquid refrigerant circulates or when
the compressor switched on and off.
* A slight sound will be heard when defrosted water drops into the
evaporating dish.
* The compressor will operate for comparatively longer periods if excessive
quantities of food are stored or the ambient temperature is high.
* The evaporator will produce odors if the compartment is not cleaned.
Caution: The refrigerator should never be restarted until a period of at least
five minutes has elapsed.
Please determine the cause of the problem before making any repairs.
