• Set the dial to OFF to turn off the cooling function.
Under the normal operating condition (in spring and autumn), it is recommended to set the temperature at 4 .

In summer when the ambient temperature is high, it is recommended to set temperature at 3-4 , so as to guarantee

the fridge and freezer temperatures and reduce the refrigerator continuous running time; and in winter when the
ambient temperature is low, it is recommended to set temperature at 5-6 to avoid frequent start/stop of the
refrigerator.
Notes:The temperatures may vary with respect to setting's ones due to compressor cycles and outside conditions.
Fast Freeze
1. Fast freezing makes water in the food form into fine ice crystal, so as to prevent the cell membrane from being
damaged and the cytoplasm from being lost when thawing, thus preserving the original freshness and nutrition of food.
2. Fresh food and fish to be preserved for a long time should be frozen in a fast manner. To realize fast freezing, please
adjust the knob switch to mode "7" before adding the food.
3. After fast freezing, turn the knob back to its original mode (In general, the fast freezing time shall not exceed 4 hours).
Notes：
The thermostat setting of '6' or '7' is suitable when ambient temperature is under 16 °C, but it may lead to ice
formation if the refrigerator keeps running at such setting for a long time under the normal ambient temperature, which
belongs to normal phenomenon. In such case, it is recommended to adjust back the thermostat setting appropriately.
IN USE
1. The appliance might not operate consistently (possibility of defrosting of contents or temperature becoming too warm in
the frozen food compartment) when sited for an extended period of time below the cold end of the range of temperatures
for which the refrigerating appliance is designed
2. The fact that the internal temperatures could be affected by such factors as the location of the refrigerating appliance,
ambient temperature and the frequency of door opening, and, if appropriate, a warning that the setting of any temperature
control device might have to be varied to allow for these factors
3. The fact that effervescent drinks should not be stored in food freezer compartments or cabinets or in low-temperature
compartments or cabinets, and that some products such as water ices should not be consumed too cold
4.The need to not exceed the storage time(s) recommended by the food manufacturers for any kind of food
5. The fact that a rise in temperature of the frozen food during manual defrosting, maintenance or cleaning could shorten
the storage life
6. It is better wrapping the frozen food in several layers of the glass shelves.
7. the care required with regard to frozen food in storage in the event of an extended non-running of the refrigerating
appliance (interruption of power supply or failure of the refrigerating system)
Tips for keeping food perfect in the Fridge
Take extra care with meat and fish
Cooked meats should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats on a
plate which is large enough to collect juices and cover it with cling film or foil.
Leave space around food
This allows cold air to circulate around the Fridge, ensuring all parts of the Fridge are kept cool.
Wrap up food!
To prevent transfer of flavors and drying out, food should be separately packed or covered. Fruit and vegetables need
not be wrapped.
Pre-cooked food should be cooled properly
Allow pre-cooked food to cool down before placing in the Fridge. This will help to stop the internal temperature of the
Fridge from rising.
Shut the door!
To prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the number of times you open the door. When returning from shopping, sort foods
to be kept in your Fridge before opening the door. Only open the door to put food in or take it out.
Recommended storage periods
For recommended food storage time, refer to the information given on your food packaging.
Tips for shopping for frozen foods
Your Freezer is 4 star
When you are buying frozen food, look at the Storage Guidelines on the packaging. You will be able to store each item of
frozen food for the period shown against the 4 star rating. This is usually the period stated as "Best, Before", found on the
front of the packaging.
Check the Fridge/Freezer temperature
Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop where you buy your frozen foods. It should show a
temperature lower than -18℃.
Choose packs carefully
Make sure the frozen food package is in perfect condition.
Purchase frozen food last Always buy frozen products last on your shopping trip or visit to the supermarket.
Keep frozen foods together
Try to keep frozen food together whilst shopping, and on the journey home as this will help to keep the food cooler.
Store food straight away
Don't buy frozen food unless you can freeze it straight away. Special insulated bags can be bought from most
supermarkets and hardware shops. These keep frozen food cold for longer.
Thawing frozen food for some foods, thawing before cooking is unnecessary. Vegetables and pasta can be added
directly to boiling water or steam cooked. Frozen sauces and soups can be put into a saucepan and heated gently until
thawed.
