FRESH ZONE
When the door is opened, the warmer air doesnt influence 
the fresh meat. You can keep food fresher in it.
DEFROSTING
 Defrosting takes place automatically. 
 The defrosted water flows down to the evaporating tray which is located \
in the lower back side of the
refrigerator and is evaporated automatically.
DEODORIZER (OPTIONAL)
  By using a catalyst, deodorizing performance is guaranteed.
  Unpleasant odor of food in the fresh food compartment is deodorized with\
 no harm to you and the food.
How to use
  As the catalyst is located in cooling air outlet for circulating air in \
fresh food compartment, there is no
need to touch it.
  Do not puncture the cooling air outlet with a sharp tip because the deod\
orizing catalyst may be
damaged.
  When storing food with a strong odor, wrap it or store it in a container\
 with a lid because the odor may
be absorbed by other foods.

							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, cover food with vinyl wrap or store in a container with a \
lid. This prevents moisture from
evaporating and helps food to keep its taste and nutrients.
  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, causing
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 deteriorates taste and n\
utrition.
  When storing frozen food like ice cream for a long period, place it on t\
he freezer shelf, 
not in the door rack.
  Avoid storing any food close to the bottom area of the freezer shelf to \
keep efficient air circulation.
REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT
  Avoid placing moist food deep inside refrigerator shelves, it could free\
ze upon direct contact 
with chilled air.
  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 spoi\
ling.
  When storing eggs in their storage rack, ensure that they are fresh. Alw\
ays store them in a upright
position, which keeps them fresh longer.
  
						

							15
Anti-CondensationPipe
It is important that your refrigerator be kept clean to
prevent undesirable odors. Spilled food should be
wiped up immediately, since it may acidify and
stain plastic surfaces if allowed to settle.
Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, coarse
abrasive cleaners, or strong alkaline solutions on
any surface.
Before you clean, remember that damp objects will
stick or adhere to extremely cold surfaces. Do not
touch frozen surfaces with wet or damp hands.
EXTERIOR - Use a lukewarm solution of mild soap
or detergent to clean the durable finish of your
refrigerator. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and
then dry.
INTERIOR - Regular cleaning of the interior and
interior parts is recommended. If you have the No
Frost model which defrosts automatically, leave
both doors open during the entire cleaning process. 
Disconnect the power supply, and remove food and
all compartment shelves, storage trays etc. 
Wash all compartments with a baking soda
solution. Rinse and dry. INTERIOR PARTS -
Wash compartment shelves,
door racks, storage trays, and magnetic door seals
etc. with the baking soda solution or a mild
detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry.
WARNING
Always remove power cord from the wall outlet
prior to cleaning in the vicinity of electrical
parts (lamps, switches, controls, etc.).
Wipe up excess moisture with a sponge or
cloth to prevent water or liquid from getting into
any electrical part and causing a electric
shock. Do not use flammable or toxic cleaning
liquids.
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.
DRY ICE WARNING
When using dry ice, provide adequate ventilation.
Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide (CO2).
When it vaporizes, it can displace oxygen, causing
dizziness, light-headedness, unconsciousness, and
death by suffocation. 
Open a window and do not breathe the vapors.
IF YOU MOVE
If you move, empty the refrigerator (freezer)
completely and wash a mild solution of baking
soda and water. (2 TBS soda to 1 quart water) 
Be sure the soda is completely dissolved to avoid
scratching the inside of the refrigerator (freezer).
Secure any loose items, such as racks, bins, ice
trays, etc. Do not try to move a loaded refrigerator.
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.
