STARTING
When your refrigerator is first installed, allow it 2-3 hours to stabili\
ze at normal operating temperatures
prior to filling it with fresh or frozen foods.
If operation is interrupted, wait 5 minutes before restarting.
CONTROLS FOR FREEZER COMPARTMENT
●  
●  
●  The higher number the control setting is, the lower the
temperature of the freezer compartment becomes.
Since the temperature of the refrigerator and freezer
compartments is controlled with a fixed amount of cooled air,
the refrigerator compartment will be warmer if the freezer
compartment becomes colder.
When the freezer compartment is not cold enough in winter,
adjust the control for the freezer to High(6~8).
●  Setting the Freezer Knob at           will satisfy 4 STAR. Setting the F\
reezer Knob at NORMAL will have
sufficient freezing effect, so it is recommended to set the Knob at NORM\
AL.  Cool air ventICEBEAM DOOR COOLING
There are cool air vents on the sides to provide cool airall over the space.
Refrigerator provides cool air all over the space and the
cooling fan makes cooling effect better when you newly put food. As a result, the cooling time becomes short.
If water of foreign substances enter the cool air vent while cleaning, efficiency will be lowered. In addition, if gasket is
damaged, efficiency may be lowered owing to the escape of
cool air.

DEODORIZER (OPTIONAL) 
●Unpleasant odor of food in fresh food
compartment is deodorized with no harm to
you and the food.How to use
• As Deodorizer is located in cooling air inlet for circulating air in fre\
sh food compartment, there is no need for any handling.
• Do not prick the cooling air inlet with a sharp tip because Deodorizer m\
ay be damaged.
• When storing food with a strong odor, wrap it or store it in a container\
 with a lid because odor may be passed on to other foods.
Re-Using of Deodorizer
• Used some length and the odor is strong, Deodorizer can be revived and re-used.
• Separate Deodorizer in ceiling of refrigerator compartment, using hair drier to remove
moisture or malodor and oxidize under sunlight
to decomposing malodor by ultraviolet.
DEFROSTING

							SUGGESTIONS ON FOOD STORAGE
14
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.
 
						

							CLEANING

GENERAL INFORMATION
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.
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.
