ADDITIONAL TIPS FOR
PROPER USAGE
• In the event of a power failure, call the local
office of your Electricity Company and ask how
long it is going to last.
- Most power failures that are corrected in an
hour or two will not affect your refrigerator
temperatures. However, you should minimize
the number of door openings while the power
is off.
- If the power failure lasts more than 24 hours,
remove and discard all frozen food.
• If a key is provided with refrigerator, the keys
should be kept out of the reach of children and
not be in the vicinity of the appliance.
• The appliance might not operate consistently
(frozen contents can thaw or temperatures
can become too warm in the frozen food
compartment) when sited for an extended
period of time in a location where ambient
air temperatures are constantly below the
temperatures for which the appliance is
designed.
• Do not store food which goes bad easily at low
temperature, such as bananas and melons.
• Your appliance is frost free, which means there
is no need to manually defrost your appliance.
This will be carried out automatically.
• Temperature rise during defrosting complies
with ISO requirements. But If you want to
prevent an undue rise in the temperature of the
frozen food while the appliance defrosts, wrap
the frozen food in several layers of newspaper.
• Any increase in the temperature of frozen food
during defrosting can shorten its storage life.
• Do not re-freeze frozen foods that have
thawed completely.
