DEFROSTING
Heavy frost will effect the efficiency and performance of the refrigerator and can
create increased energy consumption. If the frost inside of the freezer gets as thick as
¼ inch, you must defrost the refrigerator. Follow these steps to defrost the freezer:
1. Remove all food from the refrigerator and freezer.
2. Uninstall the drawers and shelves.
3. Unplug the power supply cord.
4. Open the doors and wait for the appliance to thaw completely.
5. Clean up the water with dry towels.
NOTE: DO NOT use any other equipment or method to force
the defrost process. It may ruin the cooling system.

DISCONNECTING THE APPLIANCE

After a power failure the refrigerator can keep food cool
for several hours if doors are kept shut.
If the power fails, do not put additional food into the refrigerator or open the doors.
If you plan to have your power shut off for an extended period of time, make
sure to remove all perishable food from the refrigerator or freezer first.
If you stop use of your refrigerator for an extended period
of time, unplug the appliance from the outlet.
Always wait at least five minutes after unplugging the
power supply cord before plugging it back in.

HELPFUL TIPS

• The refrigerator does not work.
It may not be properly connected to the power supply, or the voltage may be too low.
• The refrigerator does not work as efficiently as expected.
It may be caused by heavy frost, the temperature setting being too
warm, or by frequently opening and closing the door.
• It makes strange noises.
The noises may be caused by the refrigerator not being stabilized. Make
sure the surface that the refrigerator is on is flat and firm. Noise can also be
caused by resonation between the refrigerator and objects near it.
• The compressor keeps working for a long period of time.
The temperature may be too high. This can also be caused by the
frequent opening and closing of the doors, or by the door being left
open. Try moving the temperature setting between 3-5.
• The inside of the refrigerator has a bad odor.
Food with a strong odor should be packed in tightly closed containers before storing
in the refrigerator or freezer. Make sure to regularly clean out your refrigerator
and make sure that you do not leave spoiled food in the refrigerator.
• Water is leaking from the bottom of the refrigerator.
The drain tube is probably jammed. Contact a qualified technician to repair it.
