[. . . ] Never damage, severely bend, pull out, or twist the power cord because power cord damage may cause a fire or electronic shock. Never place glass products in the freezer because they may be broken when their inner contents are frozen. Don't use an extension cord If possible, connect the fridge-freezer to its own individual electrical outlet to prevent it and other appliances or household lights from causing an overload. 4 Introduction Important Safety Instruction Accessibility of Supply Plug Supply Cord Replacement The supply plug of the refrigerator-freezer should be placed in easy accessible position for quick disconnection in emergency. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer: Take off the doors. [. . . ] We recommend that the refrigerator be installed at a dry and well ventilated place. Make sure that the appliance is not exposed to direct sunlight or placed in vicinity of a heat source such as stove, heaters, radiator. If it is impossible, make use of an adequate plate (not asbestos) or at least the following minimum distance must be secured. from a Gas or electric cooker : 3cm from oil or coal-fired stoves : 30cm from another refrigerating appliance : 2cm NOTE Place on a flat and firm flooring. If the floor is not even, adjust the feet by using the leveling screw at the front edge of the cabinet. If the front is slightly higher than the rear, the door can close more easily. 8 Installation Electrical connection This appliance should be connected to the mains AC 220~240V , 50 Hz. You must connect this appliance only to the power socket with grounding complying with the related regulations and only an approved expert should install this appliance. Operation Starting Before switching it on, leave the appliance standing for at least 2 hours, so that the circulation of the refrigerant stabilizes and no operating problems occur. °C h When the appliance powers on, the initial state displayed on LED is "-18°C". Button K1 (Defrost): Press button K1 for three seconds the first time, indicator "-", "¡ãC", "h" shut off, compressor stop running and the value displayed on LED is"OF". Press button K1 for the second time , indicator "-", "¡ãC", "h" display normally, compressor running normally and LED displays the initial state. Button K2 (Quick freezing): Press butoon K2 for the first time, indicator "-", "°C"shut off, indicator "h" light on and initial freezing time displayed is"3h". Press button K2 for the second time the freezing time displayed is "2h". Press button K2 for the third time the freezing time displayed is "1h". The compressor will ren from 1hour to 3 hours according to the freezing time displayed on LED. Press button K2 for the fourth time, the indicators will recover the state before quick freeze. Button K3 (Temperature regulation): Press button K3 continuously, the provided temperature displayed will be from -14°C to -27°C circularly. 9 Suggestion on food storage Storing food Opening the door often or keeping the door opened a long time, increases the inside temperature. This causes the storage life and flavor of the foods to reduce, and increases the energy consumption. NOTE Do not touch deep-frozen foods with wet hands. Make sure foods that are not frozen do not touch the frozen foods. The packing materials suitable for refrigerating the foods are - Polyethylene bags, Plastic foil, freezing containers. The suitable wrapping materials are - Rubber band, Plastic clips, attaching tape, string. Before sealing, get rid of air from packing bags and foil. [. . . ] Any damage to the heat exchanger or other events leading to the exposure of the refrigerant to the environment, should be avoided because of potential environment and health risks. 12 Care and Maintenance General information Going away When you plan to be away for an extended period, remove all food, disconnect the power cord, clean the interior thoroughly, and leave the door OPEN to prevent odor formation. Most power failures are corrected in an hour or two and will not affect your refrigerator temperatures. However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is OFF. During power failures of longer duration, place a block of dry ice on top of your frozen packages. [. . . ]
