V. Instructions for food storage
Precautions for use
lThe appliance might not operate consistently (there is possibility of defrosting or temperature becoming too warm in
the frozen food compartment) when sited for an extended period of time below the cold limit of the temperature range
for which the refrigerating appliance is designed
lThe information of climate type of the appliance is provided on the rating plate.
lThe internal temperature could be affected by such factors as the location of refrigerating appliance, ambient
temperature, and frequency of door open, etc., and if appropriate, a warning that setting of any temperature control
device might have to be varied to allow for these factors should be made.
lEffervescent drinks should not be stored in the freezer compartment or the low-temperature compartment, and some
products such as water ices should not be consumed too cold.
Food storage location
Due to the cold air circulation in the refrigerator, the temperature of each area in the refrigerator is different, so different
kinds of food should be placed in different areas.
The fresh food compartment is suitable for the storage of such foods as need not to be frozen, the cooked food, beer,
eggs, some condiments that need cold preservation, milk, fruit juice, etc. The crisper box is suitable for the preservation of
vegetables, fruits, etc.
The freezer compartment is suitable for the storage of ice cream, frozen food and the foods to be preserved for a long
time.
Use of the fresh food compartment
Fridge shelf: When removing the shelf, lift it up first, and then pull it out; and when installing the shelf, place it into position
before putting it down. Keep the shelf rear flange upward, to prevent foods from contact the liner wall. When taking out or
putting in the shelf, hold it firmly, and handle with care to avoid damage.
Crisper box: Pull out the crisper box for access to food. After using or cleaning the cover plate of the crisper box, be sure
to put it back onto the crisper, so that the internal temperature of the crisper box will not be affected.
How to use the ice-making box
Place the ice-making box in the upper position of the freezer compartment, so that it ices up as soon as possible.
