Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove all packaging materials. Inspect the appliance for any shipping damage. Report any damage to your supplier immediately.
2. Placement: Place the refrigerator on a firm, level surface capable of supporting its weight when fully loaded. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit. Maintain a minimum of 10 cm (4 inches) clearance from walls and other objects on all sides (back, top, and sides) to allow for proper airflow and heat dissipation. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources.
3. Leveling: Adjust the leveling feet at the bottom of the unit to ensure it is stable and level. This is crucial for proper door sealing and efficient operation.
4. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, clean the interior and exterior of the refrigerator with a mild detergent and warm water. Dry thoroughly.
5. Power Connection: Allow the appliance to stand upright for at least 2-4 hours before plugging it in. This allows the refrigerant to settle. Connect the refrigerator to a dedicated, grounded 230V power outlet. Do not use extension cords or adapters.

Operating Instructions

Initial Start-up:

After plugging in the unit, the digital thermostat display will illuminate. The refrigerator will begin cooling to the factory preset temperature.

Temperature Adjustment:

The digital thermostat allows for precise temperature control. The adjustable temperature range is from -1°C to +6°C. Refer to the thermostat's specific instructions (usually provided separately or integrated into the unit's control panel) for detailed steps on how to set the desired temperature. Typically, there are UP/DOWN arrows or a SET button to adjust the temperature.

LED Lighting:

The internal LED lighting enhances product visibility. This light usually operates automatically when the door is opened or can be controlled via a dedicated switch, if present.

Door Lock:

The appliance is equipped with a door lock for security. Use the provided key to lock or unlock the door as needed.

Loading the Refrigerator:

Distribute items evenly on the adjustable shelves. Do not block the internal air vents, as this can impede proper cooling. Avoid overloading the unit to ensure efficient circulation of cold air.

Maintenance

Cleaning:

• Interior: Regularly clean the interior with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive cleaners or sharp objects.
• Exterior: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft cloth and mild detergent. For the glass door, use a glass cleaner.
• Condenser Coil: The condenser coil (located at the back or bottom of the unit) should be cleaned periodically (every 3-6 months) to ensure efficient operation. Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to remove dust and debris. Always unplug the unit before cleaning the condenser.

Defrosting:

This appliance features an automatic defrost system by compressor cycle. This means that ice buildup on the evaporator coil is periodically melted and drained. You should not need to manually defrost the unit under normal operating conditions. If excessive ice buildup occurs, check the door seal for leaks or contact service.

Door Seal Maintenance:

Inspect the door gasket regularly for cracks or damage. A damaged gasket can lead to inefficient cooling and increased energy consumption. Clean the gasket with warm water and mild soap to maintain its flexibility and sealing properties.

Troubleshooting

For issues not listed above or if solutions do not resolve the problem, please contact qualified service personnel.
