Energy warnings

  1. Refrigerating appliances might not operate consistently (possibility of defrosting of contents or temperature becoming too warm in the frozen food compartment) when set for an extended period below the cold end of the temperature range for which the refrigerating appliance is designed.
  2. Effervescent drinks should not be stored in food freezer compartments or cabinets, or low-temperature compartments or cabinets, because some products, such as water ice should not be consumed too cold;
  3. Do not exceed the storage time(s) recommended by the food manufacturers for any kind of food and particularly for commercially quick-frozen food in the food-freezer and the frozen- food storage compartments or cabinets
  4. Prevent an undue rise in temperature of frozen food while defrosting the refrigerating appliance, such as wrapping the frozen food in several layers of newspaper.
  5. A rise in temperature of frozen food during manual defrosting, maintenance, or cleaning can shorten the storage life.

Disposal

PROPER USE OF REFRIGERATOR

Placement

  • Before use, remove all packing materials, including bottom pads, foam pads and tapes inside of the refrigerator; tear off the protective film on the doors and the refrigerator body.
  • Keep away from heat and avoid direct sunlight. Do not place the freezer in moist or wet places to prevent rust or reduction of the insulating effect.
  • Do not spray or wash the refrigerator; do not put the refrigerator in moist places, easy to be splashed with water, so as not to affect the electrical insulation properties of the refrigerator.
  • The space on top of the refrigerator shall be greater than 10cm, and the refrigerator should be placed against a wall with a distance of more than 10cm to facilitate heat dissipation.
  • Spare enough space for convenient opening of the doors and drawers or statement by the distributor.TESLA-RF3900FMX-Built-In-Refrigerator-FIG-11

(unit: mm)

  • The measurements in the above table may differ, depending on the measuring method.
  • NOTE This refrigerator needs to be installed independently and cannot be used as a built-in. Otherwise, it will cause problems such as failure to install into the cabinet, the performance and life of the product are reduced.
  • And the manufacturer does not provide a basic product warranty.

Energy saving tips

  • 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 down to room temperature before placing them 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 bins should not be lined with tin foil, wax paper, or paper towels. 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
  • Light source in this product is replaceable only by qualified engineers.

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.
  • Light source in this product is replaceable only by qualified engineers.TESLA-RF3900FMX-Built-In-Refrigerator-FIG-12TESLA-RF3900FMX-Built-In-Refrigerator-FIG-13

Start to use

  • Before initial start, keep the refrigerator still for two hours before connecting it to the power supply.
  • Before placing any fresh or frozen foods, the refrigerator should have run for 2 – 3 hours, or for more than 4 hours in summer when the ambient temperature is high.
  • NOTE: This product is not recommended for use with sockets or main switch with the A/ GFCI function, otherwise it may cause false tripping.
    1. It doesn’t pose a safety risk when tripped.
    2. If tripping persists, it is recommended to replace the sockets or main switch without A/GFCI function.
