2.
Install
the
refrigerator
in
the
following
place.
•
Install
on
a
rigid

Preparation
before
Use
(Continued)
•
Before
Use
A
refrigerator
is
not
an
appliance
that
increases
the
freshness
of
food
but
an
appliance
to
brake
the
food
being
spoiled
to
some
extent.
Please
follow
the
User's
Guide
carefully
and
take
proper
actions
to
keep
food
fresh.
1.
Cleaning
inside
the
refrigerator.
•
Wipe
the
surface
gently
with
wet
soft
cloth.
2.
Connect
the
refrigerator
to
an
exclusive
wall
power
outlet.
•
The
refrigerator
can
be
connected
to
an
outlet
soon
after
it
is
installed.
•
Surely
use
with
the
rated
voltage
and
exclusive
power
outlet.
emt@i
•
30
seconds
after
the
power
is
connected,
the
compressor
will
start.
3.
Allow
enough
duration
for
sufficient
cooling
before
storing
food.
•
It
may
take
about
4
hours
to
fully
cool
down
and
could
even
take
about
24
hours
when
the
ambient
temperature
is
high.
•
Optimal
Food
Storage
Keep
enou
h
space
between
food.
•
Several
food
placed
too
close
together
may
obstruct
the
flow
of
cold
air.
Keep
enough
space.
Do
not
block
the
Cold
Air
Vent.
•
This
will
adversely
affect
the
cool
air
flow
and
may
not
keep
the
temperature
inside
even.
Moreover,
it
could
result
in
food
near
the
vent
freezing.
• A
surprising
amount
of
unhygienic
substances

from
the
Ice
bank
and
Ice
Dispenser
Duct
1.
Remove
the
ice
bank
from
the

cannot
remove
it,
take
the
following
steps.
1.1
Remove
all
ice
cubes
from
the
ice
bank
until
only
the
ice
mass
remains.
1.2
Place
a
glass
at
the
ice
outlet
of
the
ice
dispenser
booth.
1.3
Gently
pour
warm

continuing
to
do
so
until
the
tank
can
be
removed.
2.
Check
the
duct
portion
and
the
crusher
case
to
be
sure
that
there
is
no
further
icing
or
ice
mass.
If
any
should
remain,
remove
it
and
clean
the
duct
portion.
Again
if
it
is
difficult
to
remove,
pour
warm
water
until
the
ice
has
melted
enough
to
remove
it,
or
in
the
case
it
is
too
hard
to
remove
ice,
dip
the
ice
bank
into
water
to
melt
the
ice
mass.
