DEFROSTING

Defrosting takes place automatically.

The defrosted water flows down to the evaporating tray which is located in the lower back side of the refrigerator and is evaporated automatically.

DEODORIZER(OPTIONAL)

By using a catalyst, deodorizing performance is guaranteed.

Unpleasant odor of food in fresh food compartment is deodorized with no harm to you and the food.

How to use

As the catalyst is located in cooling air outlet for circulating air in fresh food compartment, there is no need for any handling.

Do not prick the cooling air outlet with a sharp tip because the deodorizing catalyst may be damaged.

When storing food with a strong odor, wrap it or store it in a container with a lid because odor may be passed on to other foods.

To remove the deodorizer, after in the inserting type figure at right.

SUGGESTIONS ON FOOD STORAGE

STORING FOOD

Store fresh food in the in refrigerator compartment.

How food is frozen and defrosted is an important factor maintaining freshness and flavor.

Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as bananas, pineapples, and melons.

Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot food in the refrigerator could spoil other food, and lead to high electric bills!

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 nutritional valve.

Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circulation of chilled air keeps refrigerator temperatures even.

Do not tures to open the door rise.

Do not refreeze food that has been defrosted. This causes loss of taste and nutritional valve.

When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on the freezer shelf, not in the door rack.

REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

Avoid placing moist food on deep interior refrigerator shelves, it could freeze upon direct contact with chilled air. To avoid this it is better to store food in the covered container.

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.
