Level
If the refrigerator is not placed level when it is installed, the door might not close properly, resulting in problems with cooling,
ice or moisture. It is extremely important for the refrigerator to stand level so it can work properly. You can turn the
adjustable legs under your refrigerator to make it stable.
Setting the thermostat
Before using the refrigerator, you must ensure that the appliance first has 8 hours to settle. Then set the thermostat knob to
3. Allow the refrigerator to reach the required temperature before putting food in it. It is best to wait 24 hours before placing
food in the refrigerator. The thermostat knob controls the temperature. The higher you set the thermostat knob, the longer
the compressor will run to maintain the refrigerator at temperature. If the thermostat knob is set to OFF, the refrigerator will
not work.
Replacing the lights
•
Remove the refrigerator plug from the socket before you replace the light.
•
Replace the light with a 15-watt globe; make sure that the globe is the same shape and size. Not all globes will fit your
refrigerator.
Power failure
If the power in your house fails for a short time, make sure that you keep both doors closed properly to keep the food cold
and frozen. If you have a longer power failure, remove the food from the freezer and store it in a cold place.
Storing fresh food
Use airtight and moisture-proof material for packing or storing food in the refrigerator. This prevents odors in the refrigerator.
Fruit: wash, dry and store in the refrigerator in plastic bags.
Leaf vegetables: remove the packaging and decoration, remove the discolored and damaged leaves, wash the
vegetables in cold water. Put the vegetables in a plastic bag or plastic container.
Fish: use fresh fish on the day on which it was purchased.
Meat: store the meat in the original airtight packaging. If necessary, repackage it.
Leftovers: cover them with plastic or aluminum foil. You can also use plastic containers for this purpose.
Frozen products
The freezer has been designed for storing food and for freezing food at home. Freezing successfully depends on the right
packaging. When you close and package the food, you must ensure that no air or moisture is retained. This prevents odors in
the freezer and stops the food from drying out.
NOTE
Never store bottled food or beverages in the freezer.
For best results, there should be good air circulation around the frozen food, so allow sufficient space in the freezer and the
refrigerator compartment for air circulation around the packages. Also allow enough space at the front, so the door can close
properly. Ensure free air circulation all around the refrigerator so it can work optimally.
