zone at the fastest speed. Fast freezing can freeze the food water content into fine ice crystals, without damaging the
cell membrane, so cell juice will not be lost when thawing, and the original freshness and nutrition of food can be
maintained.
(3) The fast-freezing function is designed to preserve nutrition of the frozen food, with the food thoroughly frozen in the
shortest time. Fast freezing consumes more energy than the normal freezing does.
★ Allow the hot foods to cool down to the room temperature before putting them in the freezer compartment.
★ Do not put a glass container with liquid or the canned liquid that is sealed in the freezer compartment, so as to avoid
burst due to volume expansion after the liquid gets frozen up.
★ Divide the food into appropriately small portions
★
You’d better pack the food up before freezing it, and the packing bag used should be dry, in case the packing bags are
frozen together. Foods should be packed or covered by such suitable materials as are firm, tasteless, impervious to air
and water, non-toxic and pollution-free, to avoid cross-contamination and transfer of odor.
Tips for shopping the frozen foods
1. When you are buying frozen food, look at the Storage Guidelines on the packaging. You will be able to store each item
of frozen food for the period shown against the star rating. This is usually the period stated as “Best to use them before×”,
found on the front of the packaging.
2. Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop where you buy the frozen foods.
3. Make sure the frozen food package is in perfect condition.
4. Always buy frozen products last on your shopping trip or visit to the supermarket.
5. Try to keep frozen food together whilst shopping and on the journey home, as this will help to keep the food cooler.
6. Don’t buy frozen food unless you can freeze it straight away. Special insulated bags can be bought from most
supermarkets and hardware shops. These keep the frozen foods cold longer.
7. For some foods, thawing before cooking is unnecessary. Vegetables and pasta can be added directly to boiling water or
steam cooked. Frozen sauces and soups can be put into a saucepan and heated gently until thawed.
8. Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. When foods are frozen in small quantities, it will take less than for
them to freeze up and thaw.
9. Estimate the amount of foods to be frozen up. When freezing large amounts of fresh food, adjust the temperature
control knob to the low mode, with the freezer temperature lowered. So, foods can be frozen up in fast manner, with the
food freshness well kept.
VI. Tips for special needs
Moving the refrigerator/freezer
•Location
Do not place your refrigerator/freezer near a heat source, e.g. cooker, boiler or radiator. Avoid it from direct sunlight in
out-buildings or sun lounges.
•Leveling
Make sure to level your refrigerator/freezer using the front leveling feet. If not level, the refrigerator/freezer door gasket
sealing performance will be affected, or even it may lead to the operating failure of your refrigerator/freezer.
After locating the refrigerator/freezer in position, wait for 4 hours before using it, so as to allow the refrigerant to settle.
•Installation
Do not cover or block the vents or grilles of your appliance.
When you are out for a long time
• If the appliance will not be used for several months, turn it off first, and then unplug the plug from the wall outlet.
• Take out all foods.
• Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door ajar: block it open or have the
door removed if necessary.
• Keep the cleaned appliance in a dry, ventilated place and away from the heat source, place the appliance smoothly, and
do not place heavy objects on top of it.
•The unit should not be accessible to child’s play.
VII. Maintenance and cleaning
Before cleaning, unplug the power plug first; Do not plug in or plug out the plug with wet hand, because there is a risk
of electric shock and injury. Do not spill water directly on the refrigerator, to avoid rust, electricity leakage and accidents.
Do not stretch your hands into the bottom of the refrigerator, since you might be scratched by sharp metal corners.
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 powder, 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
cleaning, fix the four corners of the door gasket first, and then embed it segment by segment into the door groove.
