Internal cleaning and external cleaning
The food residuals in the refrigerator are liable to produce bad
odor, so the refrigerator must be cleaned regularly. The fresh
food compartment is usually cleaned once a month.
Remove all shelves, crisper box, bottle racks, cover board, and
drawers etc., and clean them with a soft towel or sponge dipped
in warm water or neutral detergent.
Clear off the dusts accumulated on the rear panel and side plates
of the refrigerator often.
After using detergent, be sure to rinse it with clean water, and
then wipe it dry.
Do not use bristle brush, steel wire brush, detergent, soap pow-
der, alkaline detergent, benzene, gasoline, acid, hot water and
other corrosive or soluble items to cleanse the cabinet surface,
door gasket, plastic decorative parts, etc., so as to avoid damage.
Carefully wipe dry the door gasket, clean the groove using a
wooden chopstick wrapped with cotton string. After the clean-
ing, fix the four corners of the door gasket first, and then embed
it segment by segment into the door groove.
Interruption of power supply or failure of the refrigerating sys-
tem
• Take care of the frozen foods in the event of an extended
non-running of the refrigerating appliance (such as interrup-
tion of power supply or failure of the refrigerating system).
• Try to open the refrigerator door as less as possible, in this
way can food safely and freshly kept for hours even in hot
summer.
• If you get the power outage notice in advance
：
1 Adjust the thermostat knob to the high mode an hour in ad-
vance, so that foods get fully frozen (Do not store new food
during this time!). Restore the temperature mode to the ori-
ginal setting when power supply becomes normal in a timely
manner.
2 You can also make ice with a watertight container, and put it
in the upper part of the freezer, so as to extend the time for
fresh food to be stored.
Note:
Once the refrigerator is used, you’d better use it continu-
ously; and under normal circumstance, do not stop its use, so as
not to affect the service life.
Defrosting
After a period of use, a thin layer of frost will be formed on the
freezer compartment inner wall (or evaporator) surface, which
may affect the refrigeration effect if exceeding 5mm in thickness.
In such case, you need to gently scrape the frost off using an ice
scraper rather than the metal or sharp hardware. Frosts need to
be cleared off every 3 months or so, and if the normal use of
drawers and normal access of foods are affected by frosting,
make sure to remove the frosts in a timely manner. Follow the
following steps to remove frosts:
1 Take out the frozen foods, shut off the mains power supply,
open the refrigerator door, and gently remove the frosts
from the inner wall with an ice scraper. To speed up the
thawing process, you are suggested to place a bowl of hot
water inside the refrigerator/freezer, and when the solid ice
frosts become loose, use an ice scraper to scrape them off
and then take them out.
2 After defrosting, clean the refrigerator/freezer inside, and
switch on the power supply.
Changing the
lamp
The LED lamp is used by the refrigerator for lighting, which fea-
tures low energy consumption and long service life. In case of
any abnormality, please contact the after-sales personnel for vis-
iting service.
Safety-check after maintenance
Is the power cord broken or damaged?
Is the power plug firmly inserted into the socket?
Is the power plug abnormally overheat?
Note:
Electric shock and fire accident may be caused in case the
power cord and plugs damaged or stained by dust. If any abnor-
mality, please unplug the power plug and get in contact with the
vendor.
Simple fault analysis and elimination
With regard to the following small faults, not every failure needs
to be fixed by the technical service personnel; you can try to
solve the problem.
Completely non-refrigeration
• Is power plug off?
• Are breakers and fuses a broken?
• No electricity or line trip?
• Re-plug.
• Opening the door and checking whether the lamp is lit.
Abnormal noise
• Is refrigerator stable?
• Does refrigerator reach the wall?
• Adjusting refrigerator’s adjustable feet.
• Off the wall.
Poor refrigerating efficiency
• Do you put hot food or too much food?
• Do you open the door frequently?
• Do you clip food bag to the seal of door?
• Direct sunlight or near a furnace or stove?
• Is it well-ventilated?
Temperature setting in too high?
• Putting food into refrigerator when hot food becomes cool.
• Checking and closing the door.
• Removing the refrigerator from the heat source.
• Emptying the distance to maintain good ventilation.
• Setting to the appropriate temperature.
Peculiar smell in refrigerator
• Any spoiled food?
• Do you need to clean refrigerator?
• Do you pack food of strong flavors?
• Throwing away spoiled food.
• Cleaning refrigerator.
• Packing food of strong flavors.
