unplug the appliance from the mains
power and leave the doors open. Ventilate
the room thoroughly to accelerate the
thawing process.
2. When defrosting is completed, clean
your freezer as described above.
Caution!
Don't use sharp objects to
remove frost from the freezer
compartment. Only after the interior is
completely dry should the appliance be
switched back on and plugged back into
the mains socket.
Door seals cleaning

food and drinks can cause seals to stick
to the cabinet and tear when you open the
door. Wash seal with a mild detergent and
warm water. Rinse and dry it thoroughly
after cleaning.

completely dry should the appliance be
powered on.
Replacing the LED light:
Warning: The LED light should be
replaced by a competent person! If the
LED light is damaged, contact the
customer helpline for assistance.
Defrosting
Why defrosting
Water contained in food or getting into air
inside the fridge be opening doors may
form a frost layer inside. It will weaken the
refrigeration when the frost is thick. While
it is more than 10mm thick, you should
defrost.
Defrosting in fresh food storage
compartment
It is automatically controlled by switching
the temperature regulator on or off so that
there is no need of operation of
defrosting. Water from defrosting will be
drained into an drip tray through a drain
pipe at the back of the fridge
automatically.
Defrosting in
frozen-food storage
compartment
Defrosting in freezer chamber is operated
manually. Before defrosting, take the food
out.
Take the ice tray and food in drawers out
or put them into the fresh food
compartment temporarily.
Set the knob of the temperature regulator
to position "0"(where the compressor will
stop working) and leave the door of the
refrigerator open until ice and frost
dissolve thoroughly and accumulation at
the bottom of the freezer chamber. Wipe
off the water with soft cloth.
In the case of speeding up the process of
defrosting, you may put a bowl of warm
water (about 50°C) into the freezer
chamber, and scrape away the ice and
frost with a defrosting spatula. After doing
so, be sure to set the knob of the
temperature regulator to the original
position.
It is not advisable to heat the freezer
chamber directly with hot water or hair
dryer while defrosting to avoid
deformation of the inner case.
It is also not advisable to scrape off ice
and frost or separate food from the
containers which have been congealed
together with the food with sharp tools or
wooden bars, so as not to damage the
inner casing or the surface of the
evaporator.
Warning!
Switching off the appliance
before defrosting, turn the temperature
regulator to position "0".
Important!
The fridge should be
defrosted at least every one month.
During the using process, if the door was
opened frequently or using the appliance
in the extreme humidity, we advise the
user to defrost every two weeks.
Go out of use for a long time

Switch off the appliance by turning the
temperature regulator to position "0".
Remove the mains plug or switch off or
disconnect the electricity supply.
Clean thoroughly (see section: Cleaning
