INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before using the refrigerator for the first time, remove
all of the packing materials, including the foam base
and adhesive tape holding accessories in place.
2.
3.
The refrigerator should be located on a firm, flat
surface that is strong enough to support the refrigerator
when it is fully loaded.
Choose a location that is not exposed to direct
sunlight, high temperatures, heat sources such as a
stove or radiator, or in a moist area. Do not choose a
location where the temperature will go below 12°C as
this could cause the refrigerator to not function
properly.
4. Leave a minimum of 50mm between each side of the
appliance and the wall. The top of the appliance
should have a minimum of 100mm clearance. This
allows for proper air circulation. This appliance is
intended to be free-standing and should not be built-in
or placed in a recessed area.
5. The refrigerator legs must be adjusted during
installation in order to function properly. The leveling
legs on the front corners can be adjusted by turning
clockwise to raise the appliance, and counter-clockwise
to lower it. Be sure to have the appliance slope slightly
backward to ensure that the door closes tightly.

It must be possible to disconnect the appliance from the power supply;
the plug must therefore be easily accessible after installation.
Electrical Connection
Before plugging in, ensure that the voltage and frequency shown on the rating plate
correspond to your domestic power supply. The appliance must be earthed. The power
supply cable plug is provided with a contact for this purpose. If the domestic power
supply socket is not earthed, connect the appliance to a separate earth in compliance
with current regulations, consulting a qualified electrician. The manufacturer declines
all responsibility if the above safety precautions are not observed.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
First Use
Temperature Setting
• The freezer temperature can be set using the control panel. The control panel
displays the current mode and set temperature. There are five temperature
settings to choose from.
Placement of Food
• The freezer compartment is suitable for freezing fresh food and storing frozen and
deep-frozen food for a long time.
• There should always be some space between items inside for air circulation.
• Food should be kept in sealed packaging to avoid becoming dry or spoil.
• Hot food should be cooled down before placing into the appliance. Otherwise, the
interior temperature and power consumption will increase.
• Reduce opening the door frequently. Keeping the door closed will increase the
appliance efficiency and reduce power consumption.
• Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal
accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the
typical smell of a brand new product, then dry thoroughly.
Important! Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the
finish.
• When first starting up or after a period out of use, before putting the product in the
compartment let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the highest settings to make
sure it is working properly and to allow it time to fall to the correct temperature.

o Do not overfilled the freezer.
o Do not use any electronic equipment inside the appliance.
o Do not store objects which are costly or subject to temperature variations.
e.g. medication or chemicals.
• Press the SET button, the LED indicator will begin to flash. Each subsequent
press of the SET button will cycle through the temperature -14℃, -16℃, -18℃,
-20℃, and -22℃. Note: -18℃ is recommended for normal use.
• Once the desired temperature is selected the LED indicator will flash for five
seconds before locking to the selected temperature setting.
• Press and hold the SET button for 3 seconds to enter SUPER Freezing mode
and the SUPER LED indicator light will turn on.
• To exit the SUPER Freezing mode, press and hold the SET button for 3
seconds again. The SUPER LED indicator light will turn off.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE OF THE APPLIANCE
• Dusts behind the
freezer and on the ground shall be timely cleaned to improve the
cooling effect and energy saving.
• Check the door gasket regularly to make sure there are no debris. Clean the door
gasket with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or diluted detergent.
• The interior of the freezer should be cleaned regularly to avoid odor.
Please turn off the power before cleaning interior, remove all foods, shelves,
drawers, etc.
• Use a soft cloth or sponge to clean the inside of the freezer, with two tablespoons of
baking soda and a quart of warm water. Then rinse with water and wipe clean. After
cleaning, open the door and let it dry naturally before turning on the power.
• For areas that are difficult to clean in the freezer (such as narrow sandwiches, gaps
or corners), it is recommended to wipe them regularly with a soft rag, soft brush,
etc. and when necessary, combined with some auxiliary tools (such as thin sticks)
to ensure
no contaminants or bacterial accumulation in these areas.
• Do not use soap, detergent, scrub powder, spray cleaner, etc., as these may cause
odors in the interior of the refrigerator or contaminated food.
• Clean the shelves and drawers with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or
diluted detergent. Dry with a soft cloth or dry naturally.
• Wipe the outer surface of the freezer with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water,
detergent, etc., and then wipe dry.
• Do not use hard brushes, clean steel balls, wire brushes, abrasives (such as
toothpastes), organic solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, banana oil, etc.), boiling
water, acid or alkaline items, which may damage the fridge surface and interior.
Boiling water and organic solvents such as benzene may deform or damage plastic
parts.
• Do not rinse directly with water or other liquids during cleaning to avoid short
circuits or affect electrical insulation after immersion.
Cleaning

Energy Saving Tips
• The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from
heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance.
Overloading the appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze
too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
• Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the
appliance. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the appliance.
• Appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper
toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the appliance less
efficient.
• Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove
as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
Defrosting
The freezer is made based on the air-cooling principle and thus has an automatic
defrosting function. Frost formed due to man-made or temperature changes can also
be manually removed by disconnection of the appliance from the power supply or by
wiping with a dry towel.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE OF THE APPLIANCE
Door Open Alarm
• If the door is not closed for 90 seconds, the door open alarm will be triggered.
• 5 of the LED indicators will start flash.
• Press the SET button or close the door to cancel the alarm.
High Temperature Alarm
• If a high internal temperature is detected, the high temperature alarm wiil be
triggered.
• 4 of the LED indicators will start flash.
• Press the SET button to cancel the alarm.
Power Failure
When a power failure occurs, the refrigerator can normally store food for several hours. Do
not put additional food into the appliance during a power failure, and do not operate door.
Disconnect the plug from the outlet, and reconnect when the power has been restored.
Always inspect for, and discard, any spoiled or thawed food in the refrigerator before
resuming use of the appliance.
Vacation
Before leaving on any vacation, remove food that could spoil while you are gone. If you
plan to be gone for an extended period of time, we recommend that all of the food should
be removed from the appliance and it should be turned off and unplugged from the outlet.
Clean the interior according to the directions provided in the CLEANING section of this
manual, and leave the door open.
Moving the Freezer
• Turn off the freezer and unplug from the outlet.
• Remove all food; securely tape down all loose items inside.
• Tape the door shut.
• Do not lift or pull the door or door handle during transportation.
• When moving, the appliance cannot be tilted over 45 degrees as possible
damage to the sealed system could occur.
• Take care to avoid strong vibration or impact to the appliance.
