Quick Cooling → Fast Freezing → Holiday → Smart → Quick Cooling
When the icon of the selected zone gets flickering, press the ‘Temp.’ key, then the
temperature of the corresponding zone can be adjusted; finally, press the OK key
for validation.
Adjustable temperature range of each compartment and temperature setup:
Fridge compartment: 2°C - 8°C;
When adjusting the fridge compartment temperature, the digital value cycles
among 2°C -8°C and OFF. (‘OFF’ represents the OFF state, and the fridge will be
shut off when the OF setting takes effect, with no refrigeration request.)
Freezer compartment: -16°C ~ -24°C;
When adjusting the freezer temperature, the digital value cycles among -16 --
24°C.
Variable-temperature compartment: 5°C-24°C;
When adjusting the variable-temperature compartment temperature, the digital
value cycles among 5°C - 24°C and OFF.
(‘OF’ represents the Fridge OFF state, with no refrigeration request.)
Variable-temperature zone OFF
Press the ‘Temp. Zone’ key until the temperature digits of the variable-tempera-
ture zone gets flickering, and then press the ‘Temp.’ key to select ‘OFF’, at last
press the ‘OK’ for validation. In this way can the variable-temperature compart-
ment be powered off, with the icon of ‘OFF’ keeping normally on. The OFF state
gets exited when the variable-temperature compartment is subject to tempera-
ture setting again.
CHILD LOCK
1) When the display lights up, if no key operation within 3 minutes, the display will
light off, with keys automatically locked. When keys are not locked, press and hold
down the LOCK key for 3s, the keys get locked, with the icon of LOCK illuminated.
2) When the display is off, press any key to wake it up, and then press and hold
down the ‘LOCK’ key for 3S, the ‘LOCK’ function gets disabled, with the icon of
LOCK distinguished and keys unlocked.
Holiday
When the Holiday function is enabled, the fridge compartment temperature will
be controlled at 14°C, which is subject to no change.
To enter the Holiday function
Press the Function key until the icon of Holiday gets flickering, and then press the
OK key for validation, with the corresponding icon illuminated.
To exit the Holiday function
When the Holiday function is active, press the Function key to select Holiday, and
then press the OK key for validation, the Holiday function gets disabled, with the
corresponding icon distinguished and the fridge temperature restored to the tem-
perature value that is set before the said function is enabled.
Power cut memory
In case of power failure, the refrigerator will maintain the operating state before
power failure when power supply is restored.
Power-on delay
In order to protect the refrigerator compressor from being damaged in the case
of short-time power failure (i.e., less than 5 minutes), the compressor will not be
started immediately after it is powered on.
Freezer over-temperature alarm (only after power outage)
When the refrigerator system is powered on for the first time, if the freezer sensor
temperature is higher than -10°C, digits of the freezer zone get flickering on the
display. The freezer temperature can be displayed when any key is pressed, and
the normal display will be restored when any key is pressed again or after 5s.
Door open alarm
If any door is open for more than 3 minutes, buzzer alarms will be continuously
issued, which can be stopped when any key is pressed, but will be restored after
3 minutes if the door keeps open. The alarms will not be lifted until the door is
closed.
Fault alarm
In case E0, E1, E2, EH, EC, EF, EE is displayed on the operation panel, it indicates
fault with the refrigerator. Please contact the aftersales person for visiting service
in such case.
Instructions for food storage
Precautions for use
The appliance might not operate consistently (there is possibility of defrosting or
temperature becoming too warm in the frozen food compartment) when sited
for an extended period of time below the cold limit of the temperature range for
which the refrigerating appliance is designed
The information of climate type of the appliance is provided on the rating plate.
The internal temperature could be affected by such factors as the location of re-
frigerating appliance, ambient temperature, and frequency of door open, etc.,
and if appropriate, a warning that setting of any temperature control device might
have to be varied to allow for these factors should be made.
Effervescent drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartment or the low-
temperature compartment, and some products such as water ices should not be
consumed too cold.
Food storage location
Due to the cold air circulation in the refrigerator, the temperature of each area in
the refrigerator is different, so different kinds of food should be placed in different
areas.
The fresh food compartment is suitable for the storage of such foods as need not
to be frozen, the cooked food, beer, eggs, some condiments that need cold
preservation, milk, fruit juice, etc. The crisper box is suitable for the preservation
of vegetables, fruits, etc.
The freezer compartment is suitable for the storage of ice cream, frozen food and
the foods to be preserved for a long time.
Use of the fresh food compartment
Fridge shelf: When removing the shelf, lift it up first, and then pull it out; and when
installing the shelf, place it into position before putting it down. Keep the shelf rear
flange upward, to prevent foods from contact the liner wall. When taking out or
putting in the shelf, hold it firmly, and handle with care to avoid damage.
Crisper box: Pull out the crisper box for access to food. After using or cleaning the
cover plate of the crisper box, be sure to put it back onto the crisper, so that the
internal temperature of the crisper box will not be affected.
Cautions for food storage
You’d better clean the foods and wipe them dry before storing them inside the
refrigerator. Before foods are put in the refrigerator, it is advisable to seal them
up, so as to prevent water evaporation to keep fresh fruits and vegetables on one
hand, and prevent taint of odor on the other hand.
Do not put too many or too weight foods inside the refrigerator. Keep enough
space between foods; if too close, the cold air flow will be blocked, thus affecting
the refrigeration effect. Do not store excessive or overweight foods, to avoid the
shelf from being crushed. When storing the foods, keep a distance away from the
inner wall; and do not place the water-rich foods too close to the fridge rear wall,
lest they get frozen on the inner wall.
Categorized storage of food: Foods should be stored by category, with the foods
you eat every day placed in front of the shelf, so that the door open duration can
be shortened and food spoilage due to expiration can be avoid.
Energy-saving tips: Allow the hot food cool down to the room temperature be-
fore putting it in the refrigerator. Put the frozen food in the fresh food compart-
ment to thaw, using the low temperature of the frozen food to cool the fresh
food, thus saving energy.
Storage of fruits and vegetables
In the case of refrigerating appliances with chill compartment, a statement to the
effect that some types of fresh vegetables and fruits are sensitive to cold and
therefore are not suitable for storage in this kind of compartment should be
made.
