SUGGESTIONS ON FOOD STORAGE 17 STORING FOOD ●Store fresh food in the refrigerator compartment. How food is frozen and\ thawed is an important factor in maintaining its freshness and flavor. ●Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperatures, such as ban\ anas, pineapples, and melons. ●Allow hot food to cool prior to storing. Placing hot food in the refrige\ rator could spoil other food, and lead to higher electric bills! ●When storing the food, cover it with vinyl wrap or store in a container \ with a lid. This prevents moisture from evaporating, and helps food to keep its taste and nutrient\ s. ●Do not block air vents with food. Smooth circulation of chilled air keep\ s refrigerator temperatures even. ●Do not open the door frequently. Opening the door lets warm air enter th\ e refrigerator, and cause temperatures to rise. FREEZER COMPARTMENT ●Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may break when fr\ ozen. ●Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes loss of taste and\ nutrition. ●When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on t\ he freezer shelf, not in the door rack. ●Loading for Freezing - It is recommended to load newly introduced foods \ on the following position for freezing: REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT ●Avoid placing moist food on deep interior refrigerator shelves, it could freeze upon direct contact with chilled air. To avoid this it is better to store food in the covered container. ●It is desirable to store moist food (especially vegetable and fruit) in the vegetable storage compartment. If it is necessary to store on a shelf of the refrigerator, put it close to the door away from the back wall of the refrigerator to avoid being frozen by the cool circulating in the refrig\ erator. ●Always clean food prior to refrigeration. Vegetables and fruits should b\ e washed and wiped, and packed food should be wiped clean, to prevent adjacent food from spoilin\ g. ●When storing eggs in their storage rack, ensure that they are fresh, and\ always store them in a up- right position, which keeps them fresh longer.

GENERAL INFORMATION 19 VACATION TIME During average length vacations, you will probably find it best to leave the refrigerator in operation. Place freezable items in freezer for longer life. When you plan to be away for an extended period, remove all food, disconnect the power cord, clean the interior thoroughly, and leave each door OPEN to prevent odor formation. POWER FAILURE Most power failures are corrected in an hour or two and will not affect your refrigerator temperatures. However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off. During power failures of longer duration, place a block of dry ice on top of your frozen packages. IF YOU MOVE Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside the refrigerator. To avoid damaging the leveling screw(s), turn them all the way into the base. ANTI-CONDENSATION PIPE The outside wall of the refrigerator cabinet may sometimes get warm, especially just after installation. Dont be alarmed. This is due to the anti- condensation pipe, which pumps hot refrigerant to prevent sweating on the outer cabinet wall. LAMP REPLACEMENT FREEZER LAMP ●Unplug the power cord from the outlet. ●Remove the room lamp lid by loosening 1 screw and take down while pulling it forward with both hands as shown in figure. ●Remove the lamp by turning it counterclockwise. Caution Electrical Shock Hazard Before replacing a burned-out light bulb, either unplug the refrigerator or turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse box. NOTE:Moving the control to the OFF position does not remove power to the light circuit. REFRIGERATOR LAMP ●Unplug the power cord from the outlet. ●Remove refrigerator shelves. ●Remove the room lamp lid by pulling it forward. ●Make sure the bulbs are cool to the touch.

ACCESSIBILITY OF SUPPLY PLUG The refrigerator-freezer should be so positioned that the supply plug is accessible for quick disconnection when accident happens. SUPPLY CORD REPLACEMENT If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. ABOUT GROUNDING (EARTHING) In the event of an electric short circuit, grounding (earthing) reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if you have doubts on whether the appliance is properly grounded. DO NOT MODIFY OR EXTEND THE POWER CORD LENGTH. It will cause electric shock or fire. VERY DANGEROUS ATTRACTION An empty refrigerator can be a dangerous attraction to children. Remove either gaskets, latches, lids or the entire door from your unused appliance, or take some other action to make it harmless. This appliance must be grounded (earthed). DONT WAIT! DO IT NOW!
