Place your refrigerator where it is easy to use. Turn the leveling screw clockwise to raise the unit, counterclockwise to lower it. 2. Avoid placing the unit near heat sources, direct sunlight or moisture. 5. Clean your refrigerator thoroughly and wipe off all dust accumulated during shipping. 3. To ensure proper air circulation around the fridge -freezer, please maintain sufficient space on both the sides as well as top and maintain at least 2 inches (5 cm) from the rear wall. 6. Install accessories such as ice tray, shelf, etc., in their proper places.They are packed together to prevent possible damage during shipment. 4. To avoid vibrations, the unit must be level. If required, adjust the leveling screw to compensate for unevenness of the floor. The front should be slightly higher than the rear to aid in door closing. Leveling screw can be turned easily by tipping the cabinet slightly. 7. Connect the power supply cord (or plug) to the outlet. Don't double up with other appliances on the same outlet. 8. Prior to use, leave your refrigerator on for 2 or 3 hours. Check the flow of cold air on the evaporator to ensure proper cooling. Your refrigerator is now ready for use. 3 FEATURE CHART 1 4 2 5 6 3 7 1. Evaporator 2. Ice Tray 3.

Your refrigerator has a control that let you regulate the temperature in the refrigerator. If operation is interrupted, allow a 5 minute delay before restarting. Initially, set the control at mid-position. For colder temperatures, adjust the control to a higher number, and for warmer temperatures, adjust the control to a lower number. 5 4 3 6 2 1 0 7 5 OPERATION ICE MAKING DEFROSTING • To make ice cubes, fill the ice tray with water and place it on the evaporator. • It is necessary to regularly defrost your refrigerator in order to ensure efficient operation. The frost on the surface of the evaporator should not exceed a quarter of an inch(6mm) before defrosting. • To remove ice cubes, hold the tray at its ends and twist gently. • To defrost, turn the control to '0'. TIP To remove ice cubes easily, run water on the tray before twisting. • Before you start the defrosting operation, remove food from the evaporator and place the drip tray in its proper position. • When defrosting is completed, remove the drip tray, empty water, dry and put it back to its normal position. Turn the control dial to a desired position. CAUTION: Never use any sharp or metallic instruments to remove ice, frost or ice tray from the evaporator. SUGGESTIONS ON FOOD STORAGE 6 STORING FOOD • Store fresh food in the refrigerator. How food is frozen and thawed is an important factor in maintaining its freshness and flavor. • Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter the refrigerator, causing temperatures to rise. • Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as bananas, pineapples, and melons. • Do not store bottles on the evaporator - they may break when frozen. • Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot food in the refrigerator could spoil other food, and lead to higher electric bills! • Always clean food prior to refrigeration. Vegetables and fruits should be washed and wiped, and packed food should be wiped clean, to prevent adjacent food from spoiling. • When storing, wrap food in vinyl, or place in a covered container. This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients. 7 CLEANING It is important that your refrigerator be kept clean to prevent undesirable odors. Spilled food should be wiped up immediately, since it may acidify and stain plastic surfaces if allowed to settle. Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, coarse abrasive cleaners or strong alkaline solutions on any surface. INTERIOR - Regular cleaning of the interior and interior parts is recommended. Disconnect the power supply, and remove food and shelves, trays etc. Wash all compartment and shelves, trays etc. with a baking soda solution. Rinse and dry. WARNING Before you clean, however, remember that damp objects will stick or adhere to extremely cold surfaces. Do not touch frozen surfaces with wet or damp hands. EXTERIOR - Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap or detergent to clean the durable finish of your refrigerator. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and then dry. Always remove power cord from the wall outlet prior to cleaning in the vicinity of electrical parts. Wipe up excess moisture with a sponge or cloth to prevent water or liquid from getting into any electrical part and causing a electric shock. Do not use flammable or toxic cleaning liquids. GENERAL INFORMATION 8 VACATION TIME During average length vacations, you will probably find it best to leave the refrigerator in operation. When you plan to be away for an extended period, remove all food, disconnect the power cord, clean the interior thoroughly, and leave the door OPEN to prevent odor formation. POWER FAILURE Most power failures are corrected in an hour or two and will not affect your refrigerator temperatures. However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off. During power failures of longer duration, place a block of dry ice on top of your frozen packages. IF YOU MOVE Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside the refrigerator. To avoid damaging the leveling screw, turn them all the way into the base. 9 IMPORTANT WARNINGS DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD If possible, connect the refrigerator to its own individual electrical outlet to prevent it and other appliances or household lights from causing an overload that could cause a power outage. ACCESSIBILITY OF SUPPLY PLUG The refrigerator-freezer should be so positioned that the supply plug is accessible for quick disconnection when accident happens. POWER CORD REPLACEMENT If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or its service agent. ABOUT GROUNDING(EARTHING) In the event of an electric short circuit, grounding(earthing) reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
