OPERATION STARTING Turn the controls to the COLDER position before using the appliance for the rst time. Wait 2-3 hours for the temperature to stabilize before storing food. If the appliance is unplugged, wait 5 minutes before plugging it in again to avoid stress to the compressor. Compressor will start operating 7 to 10 minutes after connecting the power cord. TEMPERATURE CONTROL Only for quick freezing For making ice General setting Default The default setting for the refrigerator temperature control is COLDER. Adjust the temperature control to COLDEST for colder temperatures or to WARM for warmer temperatures. Only set the temperature control between COLDEST and OVER FREEZING if you want to quick freeze foods. When quick freezing is nished, set the control back to the COLDER position. Leaving the control set between COLDEST and OVER FREEZING for a long time can freeze items in the fresh food compartment. MAKING ICE To make ice cubes, ll the ice cube tray with w ater to slightly below the rim and place it in the freezer. Set the temperature control to the COLDEST position. To save energy, remember to reset the temperature control to COLDER once the ice is made. To remove ice cubes, hold the tray at both ends and twist gently. TIP To remove ice cubes easily, run water over the tray before twisting. DEFROSTING It is necessar y to regularly defrost your refrigerator in order to ensure ef cient operation.

Remove food from around the evaporator before starting the defrosting operation. Once defrosting is complete, the defrost button will return to its normal position automatically. If the frost on the surface of the evaporator exceeds 1/4 inch (6 mm), check and empty the drip tray after defrosting. 1. Open with a screwdriver. 2. Remove and empty the drip tray, dry it off and reassemble it. 11 Drip Tray OPERATION WATER DISPENSER (OPTIONAL) NOTE Install the water tank before lling it with water.

How food is frozen and thawed is an important factor in maintaining its freshness and flavor. Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as bananas, pineapples, and melons. Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot food in the refrigerator could spoil other food, and lead to higher electric bills. When storing food, cover it with plastic wrap or store in a container with a lid. This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients. Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the refrigerator, and causes temperatures to rise. Opening the door for long periods can cause a signi cant rise in the temperature inside the appliance. If the refrigerator will not be in use for a long period, switch it off and allow it to defrost. Clean the interior and allow it to dry. Prop the door open to prevent mold from growing inside the appliance. Store raw meat and sh in suitable containers in the refrigerator, so that they are not in contact with or can drip onto other food. FREEZER COMPARTMENT Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when frozen. Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and nutrition. The freezer compartment is designed for making ice and for short-term storage of already frozen food. The temperature in the compartment may not get cold enough to freeze fresh food or to store foods such as ice cream safely. REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT Avoid placing moist food on deep interior refrigerator shelves, it could freeze upon direct contact with chilled air. To avoid this it is better to store food in a covered container. Only set the temperature control between COLDEST and OVER FREEZING if you want to quick freeze foods. When quick freezing is nished, set the control back to the COLDER position. Leaving the control set between COLDEST and OVER FREEZING for a long time can freeze items in the fresh food compartment. Always clean food prior to refrigeration. Vegetables and fruits should be washed and patted dry, and packed food should be wiped clean, to prevent adjacent food from spoiling. When storing eggs in their storage rack, ensure that they are fresh, and always store them in an upright position to keep them fresh longer. 13 CLEANING It is important that your refrigerator be kept clean to prevent undesirable odors.
