3. Setup and Installation
3.1 Unpacking

- Inspect the refrigerator for any signs of damage during transit. Report any damage to your retailer immediately.
- Retain packaging materials for potential future transport or service.
3.2 Placement
- Place the refrigerator on a firm, level surface to ensure stability and proper operation.
- Ensure there is sufficient space (at least 10 cm) around the sides and back of the appliance for adequate ventilation.
- Avoid placing the refrigerator in direct sunlight or near heat sources such as stoves, radiators, or ovens, as this can increase energy consumption.
- The appliance is designed for indoor use only.
3.3 Electrical Connection
- Before plugging in, ensure the voltage and frequency specified on the rating plate match your household power supply.
- Connect the refrigerator to a dedicated, grounded 3-pin power outlet.
- Do not switch on the refrigerator immediately after moving it. Allow it to stand upright for at least 2-4 hours before plugging it in to allow the refrigerant to settle.
4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Temperature Control
The refrigerator features a touch control console for temperature adjustment. Refer to the specific markings on the control panel inside your refrigerator for precise settings. Generally, a medium setting is recommended for everyday use. Adjust to a colder setting if the ambient temperature is high or if you are storing a large quantity of food.
4.2 Food Storage Guidelines
- General Compartment: Store fresh foods, dairy products, and cooked meals. Ensure food is covered to prevent drying out and odor transfer.

5. Maintenance and Care
5.1 Cleaning
- Interior: Clean the interior regularly with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. Wipe dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Exterior: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.
- Door Seals: Clean door seals regularly to ensure a tight seal and prevent energy loss. Use a soft cloth and warm water.
- Condenser Coils: Periodically clean the condenser coils at the back of the refrigerator (if accessible) with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to maintain efficiency.
5.2 Defrosting
This is a Direct Cool refrigerator, which means manual defrosting is required when ice buildup in the freezer compartment becomes excessive (approximately 5mm thickness).
- Unplug the refrigerator from the power outlet.
- Remove all food items from the freezer and refrigerator compartments and store them in a cool place.
- Leave the refrigerator door open to allow the ice to melt naturally. Place towels at the bottom to absorb melting water.
- Do not use sharp objects or heating devices to speed up defrosting, as this can damage the appliance.
- Once all ice has melted, clean and dry the interior thoroughly.
- Plug the refrigerator back in and allow it to cool down for a few hours before returning food items.
