1) Install on a rigid and level floor.
2) Please use this refrigerator between the room temperature of 10°C to 43°C Sufficient
performance may not be obtained, if room temperature is too low or too high.
3) Do not install where the refrigerator is exposed to direct sunlight or other heat source.
4) Install in an atmosphere which is dry or has air ventilation.

cooling performance Space of at least 30 cm over the top, 10 cm at rear
and 5 cm at both sides for proper air circulation.

Optimal Food Storage
1) Keep enough space between food. Several food placed too close together may obstruct the flow of cold air.
2) Make food cool enough before putting it in the refrigerator.Putting warm food in the refrigerator raises the
inside temperature and wastes electricity.
3) Do not block the cold air vent. This will adversely affect the cold air flow and may not keep the temperature
inside even. Moreover, it could result in food near the vent freezing.
4) Using plastic wrap or sealed containers prevent the food from drying or transition of smells.
