Cleaning and Care
Cleaning the Kimchi Refrigerator and Rubber Seals
• Clean with a dish towel that has been soaked with a neutral detergent. Clean the grooves using a cotton
swab.
• Clean the controls and display using a dry dish towel. Do not use water or detergent.
• Oils and insecticides can react with the Kimchi Refrigerator surface. Over time, this reaction will cause
the surface to discolor or even crack. Make sure to keep the Kimchi Refrigerator surface clean of oils and
insecticides.
• Wipe off excess moisture using a dry dish towel.
Removing Frost and Condensation
• Using sharp objects or excessive force when removing frost will damage the inner walls of the Kimchi
Refrigerator.
•
If too much frost has formed inside the Kimchi Refrigerator and it’s difficult to take out the Kimchi
Containers, empty the Kimchi Containers and power off the chamber. Wait 30 minutes and remove the
frost. Make sure to store the items inside the Kimchi Containers in the other chamber or your refrigerator.
•
Frost will turn into ice over time. This will decrease your Kimchi Refrigerator’s performance.
Make sure to remove any frost inside the Kimchi Refrigerator before it turns into ice. Failing to do so may
result in the items stored inside your Kimchi Refrigerator going bad.
Cleaning the Deodorizers
• Deodorizers are semi-permanent units that do not need to be replaced.
•
Remove the deodorizer by opening the door, flipping the hook located at the center of the deodorizer up,
and then pulling the deodorizer cover down. Clean the deodorizer when necessary and reassemble it in
the reverse order.
• Dry the deodorizer under the sun for about a day to reactivate its deodorization agents.
Cleaning the Kimchi Containers
• New Kimchi Containers can smell of plastic. Wash them thoroughly using a neutral detergent and a
sponge before use.
• If your Kimchi Container has taken on a smell from normal use, add small bits of green vegetables and set
it aside with the lid on for a day or so, or fill it with water left over from washing rice and scrub the inside
of the Kimchi Container with a sponge to remove the smell.
• Long-term use can cause the Kimchi Containers to take on the color and smell of the kimchi stored in
them.
NOTE
• If you intend to not use the Kimchi Refrigerator for an extended duration of time or when cleaning the
Kimchi Refrigerator, disconnect the power plug, open the doors to allow the interior to dry, and clean the
interior using a dry piece of cloth or dish towel.
WARNING
• Do not spray water directly onto the Kimchi Refrigerator.
• Do not use benzene, paint thinner, bleach, alcohol or acetone to clean it.
• Do not clean the display using a wet dish towel.
•
Do not place or boil a kimchi container or its lid in water that has a temperature of 50 ℃ or higher.
• Do not place or use a kimchi container or its lid in a dishwasher or a microwave.
