Defrosting
•It is necessary to regularly defrost your refrigerator in
order to ensure efficient operation. The frost on the
surface of the evaporator should not exceed 6mm
before defrosting.
•To defrost, turn the control

operation, remove food from the
evaporator, and wrap it with
paper or cloth, then put it in
a cold place or in another refrigerator. Place the DRIP
TRAY in its proper position.
•If you place a bottle containing warm water in the
freezer, defrosting time can be reduced.
•When defrosting is completed, remove the drip tray,
empty water, dry and put it back to its normal position.

Suggestions on food storage
Storing Food
•How food is frozen and defrosted is an important
factor in 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. Adding too
much warm food to the refrigerator could spoil other
food, and lead to high electric bills.
•Do not open doors too frequently. Whenever the door
is opened, warm air enters the refrigerator, causing
temperatures to rise.
Freezer Compartment
•Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment –they
may break when frozen.
•Do not refreeze food that has been completely thawed.
This causes loss of taste and nutritional value.
Refrigerator Compartment
•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 nutrients.
•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.
•Food with odor (fish, cheese, butter etc.) should be
wrapped securely or stored in closed containers.
NOTE In case of placing a big bottle in the COMMODITY
RACK, if excessive force is used to open/close the
door, the bottle may fall down, so be careful.
