before connecting it to power supply.
Before putting any fresh or frozen foods, the refrigerator
shall have run for 2-3 hours, or for above 4 hours in summer
when the ambient temperature is high.
Spare enough space for convenient opening of the doors
and drawers or statement by the distributor.
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 ecient.
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.
