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.

Interruption of power supply or failure of the refrigerating system

•Take care of the frozen foods in the event of an extended non-running of the refrigerating appliance (such as interruption

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 advance, so that foods get fully frozen (Do not store new

food during this time!). Restore the temperature mode to the original 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 continuously; 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 internal light

1. Before carrying out the bulb replacement always press and turn the thermostat control to dial to position “OFF”, then

disconnecting the mains supply.

2. Hold and lift up the light bulb cover.

3. Remove the old bulb by unscrewing it in an anti-clockwise direction.

4. Replace with a new bulb (10W) by screwing it in a clockwise direction marking sure that it is secure in the bulb holder.

Refit the light cover and re-connect your Fridge/Freezer to the mains supply and switch on.

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 abnormality, please unplug the power plug and get in contact with the vendor.
