4.1 Unpacking

Carefully remove all packaging materials, including foam, tape, and protective films. Dispose of packaging responsibly. Ensure no parts are missing or damaged. Keep packaging out of reach of children.

4.2 Location

Choose a location that is:

• On a firm, level surface capable of supporting the refrigerator's weight when fully loaded.
• Away from direct sunlight, heat sources (e.g., stove, heater), and moisture.
• With adequate air circulation. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches) of space at the back and sides for proper ventilation and heat dissipation.

4.3 Leveling

Adjust the leveling feet at the bottom of the refrigerator to ensure it is stable and level. A level appliance operates more efficiently and prevents door alignment issues.

4.4 Power Connection

This refrigerator features FlexiVolt technology, allowing it to operate on both 127V and 220V power supplies. Ensure the electrical outlet is properly grounded and matches the appliance's requirements. Do not use extension cords or adapters.

4.5 First Use

After positioning and leveling, wait at least 2-4 hours before plugging in the refrigerator. This allows the refrigerant to settle. Before loading food, clean the interior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Plug in the appliance and allow it to cool for several hours (e.g., 4-6 hours) before storing food.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Control Panel

The refrigerator is equipped with an external Touch Panel for easy control of settings and functions. Refer to Figure 3 for the location of the control panel.

5.2 Temperature Adjustment

Use the up and down arrows on the Touch Panel to adjust the temperature for both the refrigerator and freezer compartments. The temperature can be set precisely, degree by degree. The display will show the current temperature setting.

5.3 Special Functions

• Turbo Freezer: Activates rapid cooling in the freezer compartment to quickly freeze new items or prepare ice. Press the designated button on the Touch Panel to activate.
• Shopping Mode: Designed to quickly lower the temperature in the refrigerator compartment after loading a large amount of new groceries, helping to preserve freshness. Press the designated button on the Touch Panel to activate.

5.4 Food Storage Guidelines

Store fresh foods in the upper refrigerator compartment. Use the designated drawers for fruits and vegetables. The lower freezer compartment is suitable for long-term storage of frozen foods. Ensure food is properly wrapped to prevent drying out and odor transfer.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning

6.1 General Cleaning

Always unplug the refrigerator before cleaning. Clean the interior and exterior surfaces regularly with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or sharp objects.

6.2 Defrosting

This is a Frost Free appliance, meaning it automatically defrosts. Manual defrosting is not required. If excessive ice buildup occurs, check if the door is sealing properly or if the door has been left open frequently.

6.3 Door Seals

Inspect the door seals regularly for cracks or damage. Clean them with a damp cloth to ensure a tight seal, which is crucial for energy efficiency and proper cooling.

6.4 Extended Absence

If the refrigerator will not be used for an extended period, unplug it, empty all food, clean the interior thoroughly, and leave the doors slightly ajar to prevent odors and mold growth.
