R600a Iso-butane Refrigerant



Hydrocarbon refrigerants have excellent refrigerant

properties and minimal low global warming potential and
no ozone depletion potential.



This appliance contains a small quantity of

ammable, non-

synthetic R600a refrigerant:



Hydrocarbon refrigerants cannot be ‘retro

tted’ to the appliance

that has not been designed and approved to use that type of
refrigerant.



Ensure that the tubing of the refrigerant circuit is not damaged

during transportation and installation.



Leaking refrigerant may cause eye injuries or could ignite.



The room for installing the appliance must be at least 1m

per 8g

of refrigerant. The amount of refrigerant in the appliance can be
found on the rating plate attached to the appliance.

Risk of



If the refrigerant circuit should become damaged. Avoid

open

ames and sources of ignition. Disconnect the appliance

from the mains power. Thoroughly ventilate the room in which
the appliance is situated for several minutes.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Instructions



The refrigeration system behind and inside the refrigerator

contains refrigerant. Do not allow any sharp objects to come in
contact with the refrigerant system.



Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or

in the built in structure, clear of obstruction.



Do not damage the refrigerant circuit, do not use electrical items or

equipment nearby, and open all windows to provide good ventilation.



Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments

of the appliance unless they are the type recommended by the
manufacturer.



This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including

children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance
by a person responsible for their safety.

WARNING



Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not

play with the appliance.



If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by

the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly quali

persons in order to avoid a hazard.



When disposing of the appliance, do so only at an authorised waste

disposal centre.



Don’t store in

ammable materials such as ether,

benzene, LP gas and glue etc in the refrigerator.



Please remove all the doors before you dispose your refrigerator

and leave the shelves in place to prevent access by children.



Do not expose to

ame.



Please keep the appliance away from substances which could

cause ignition.



Before obtaining access to electrical terminals, all electrical supply

circuits must be disconnected.



The fridge is designed to operate on a single phase

power supply within a voltage range of 220~240V/50Hz.



Don’t splash water on the rear of the appliance,

for it may cause malfunction or electric shock.



Containers with

ammable gases or liquids can leak at

low temperature. There is a risk of explosion.



Do not store any container with

ammable materials such

as spray cans in the refrigerator.



Do not operate any electrical appliance in the refrigerator (e.g.

electric ice cream makers, mixers etc.).



Before cleaning the appliance, always switch off the appliance

and unplug it, or pull the house fuse or switch off the circuit
breaker.

Safety of children

Packaging (e.g. wraps, polystyrene) can be dangerous for
children. There is a risk of suffocation. Keep packaging materials
away from children. Remember to dispose of old appliances

in accordance with local laws. Pull out the mains plug, cut off the mains
cable, break or remove spring or bolt catches if

xed and ensure that

children cannot lock themselves in the appliance when playing (there is
risk of suffocation) or involve themselves in other dangers, for children
cannot recognize the hazard present in household appliances themselves.
Therefore, it is very important for parents to make adequate supervision
and never let children play with the appliance.

avoid becoming dry or spoilt.

3. Hot food should be cooled down before placing
into the appliance. Otherwise, the interior
temperature and power consumption will increase.

4. Reduce opening the door frequently.
This will increase the appliance ef

ciency and reduce

power consumption.

Do not use any electronic equipment inside the appliance.

Do not store objects which are costly or subject to temperature
variations. e.g. medication or chemicals.

DISCONNECTION OF THE APPLIANCE

If a power failure occurs, even in summer, the refrigerator could store food
normally for some time.

1, Power failure
During a power failure, do not put additional food in the appliance and
reduce opening the door frequently.
Place several ice cubes into a container if power failure is anticipated
beforehand, and place it in the top of the fridge.

2, Power failure during vacation
Before departure of a short vacation, set the refrigerator to vacation
mode
and remove any items that could spoil if a power failure occurs. Ensure
the door is closed

rmly. If going on a long vacation, remove all items,

clean and wipe dry the internal of the appliance, prior to disconnecting
the power and leave the door open.

unplug the appliance from the power outlet. The doors should be kept
open in order to prevent unpleasant odours.

Unplugging the appliance from the power outlet, please

leave at least 5 minutes before reconnection.

TROUBLESHOOTING

The following cases are not malfunctions:
1. Moisture may form as condensation on the outside of the appliance
during humid conditions. To remove excess moisture, wipe clean.
2. The

ow of refrigerant through the pipeline coil could cause gurgling,

similar to water boiling. This is the normal function of the appliance.

CAUTION

3. It is normal that the sides of the appliance will get warm as a result of
the refrigeration system operation.
4. Do not place objects on top of the appliance which are magnetic,
heavy, or

lled with water.

5. The appliance operation could cause electrical interference to electrical
equipment.

SYMPTOM:
