Connecting the appliance
· After transportation, please let the product stay for more than 2 hours before turning on the power, otherwise it will lead to a decrease in cooling capacity or a damage to the product.
· Before putting any fresh or frozen foods, the refrigerator shall have run for 2-3 hours, or for above 4 hours in summer when the ambient temperature is high.
· Please pull out the plug in case of power failure or cleaning. Do not connect the freezer to power supply within five minutes to prevent damages to the compressor due to successive starts.
Tips for energy saving
· The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
· Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading the appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
· Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the appliance.
· Appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the appliance less efficient.
· Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
Changing the light
· Any replacement or maintenance of the LED lamps is intended to be made by the manufacturer, its service agent or similar qualified person. This product contains two light source of energy efficiency class <F> and <G> .

TROUBLESHOOTING

The following simple issues can be handled by the user. Please call the after-sale service department if the issues are not solved.

Problem

Possible reason

· Check whether the appliance is connected to power or whether the plug is in well contact

Failed operation

· Check whether the voltage is too low

· Check whether there is a power failure or partial circuits have tripped

· Odorous foods shall be tightly wrapped

Odor

· Check whether there is any rotten food

· Clean the inside of the refrigerator

· Long operation of the refrigerator is normal in summer when the ambient temperature is high

Long-time operation of the compressor

· It is not suggestible having too much food in the appliance at the same time
· Food shall get cool before being put into the appliance

· The doors are opened too frequently

Light fails to get lit

· Check whether the refrigerator is connected to power supply and whether the illuminating light is damaged
· Have the light replaced by a specialist

Door can not be properly closed Loud noises

· The door is stuck by food packages · The refrigerator is tilted. · Check whether the floor is level and whether the
refrigerator is placed stably · Check whether accessories are placed at proper locations

Problem

Possible reason

· Remove foreign matters on the door seal Door seal fails to be tight
· Heat the door seal and then cool it for restoration (or blow it with an electrical drier or use a hot towel for heating)

· There is too much food in the chamber or food stored contains too much water,resulting in heavy defrosting
Water pan overflows
· The doors are not closed properly, resulting in frosting due to entry of air and increased water due to defrosting

Hot housing Surface condensation Abnormal noise

· Heat dissipation of the built-in condenser via the housing, which is normal When housing becomes hot due to high ambient temperature, storage of too much food or shutdown of the compressor is shut down, provide sound ventilation to facilitate heat dissipation
· Condensation on the exterior surface and door seals of the refrigerator is normal when the ambient humidity is too high. Just wipe the condensate with a clean towel.
· Buzz: The compressor may produce buzzes during operation, and the buzzes are loud particularly upon start or stop. This is normal.
· Creak: Refrigerant flowing inside of the appliance may produce creak, which is normal.
