Correct Fridge installation

Correct Fridge installation can prolong its use-life and also prevent adverse events from it as well

1. The fridge should be installed on level surface to prevent noise, vibrations and fridge movements while opening it
2. The fridge should be installed in well-ventilation area by giving a space more than 10 cm from the back wall, 30 cm from the ceiling, and 5 cm from both sides respectively
3. Avoid exposure of high temperature such as direct sunlights, near an oven or stoves
4. Avoid high humidity area water-spilled or faucets
5. Avoid using the same outlet with other appliances

What should we do to the fridge when power outage or power surges occurred

Power surges can be noticed from fading lights or fridge malfunctions like abnormal noises found

Basic troubleshooting: unplug the fridge but should not plug the fridge back immediately. Please wait for at least 15 minutes before plug the fridge again due to high voltage residues in cooling unit and compressor motor will charge more voltage upon plugging which could cause damages to compressor motor that we should wait for voltage reduction before re-plugging the fridge.

Fridge usage and maintenance

1. Do not unplug and re-plugging the fridge instantly, this could damage the compressor in various ways such as compressor malfunction or jammed cylinders
2. Do not pour water inside or on the fridge, this may cause rusts or leakage current
3. Do not use benzene or thinners to clean the fridge. This may remove coated paints, please use water with mild soap to wipe both in-and-outside the fridge
4. Close the fridge door firmly, try not to open the fridge door too often so you can prolong the use-life and save energy for the fridge
5. Do not block the cool air circulation, keeping some spaces between each items for air ventilation for evenly cold distribution is recommended
6. Do not put hot items into the fridge which could damage surrounding items and put unnecessary loads to the fridge compressor. When making ice, fill the ice tray as indicated and put the tray into the freezer. Rotate the tray and let the ice falls, do not bend the tray which could possibly damage it
7. Gasket door seal should be cleaned in regular basis by using soft bristled brush with mild soap water then gently wipe with dry cloth. Replace the new gasket door seal if it is hardened from long time usage, broken seal prevents the door from closing firmly which put more working loads on the compressor and your bills.
8. Don’t let the ice formed on the drip pan too much, there would be water on the pan when defrosting more than it can self-vapored. Please check and dispose the water in this pan regularly
9. For defrosting, please perform defrosting function when there were ice formed in chamber surface over red-colored plastic part. Cooling unit will be disabled when pressing defrost button, remove drip pan and pour melted ice out then put the pan back in place

What should we do if the fridge is unused for a long time

1. Unplug the fridge and remove all items
2. Clean the fridge, wipe and let it dry then close the fridge door

How to move or relocate the fridge

1. Unplug the fridge
2. Wrap or repackaged the fridge for proper relocation
3. Put the fridge upright or up to 45 degrees inclined is allowed during relocation

Fridge malfunctions
High temperature on left/right side of the fridge

Cause: there are condensors on the fridge side to distill the vaporized coolant by transferring the coolant temperature out. To put it simple, coolant gas which has high temperature and pressure was pushed from compressor while releasing the latent heat out and condensed to liquid state but the heat and pressure still remains that cause the fridge side feels hot while compressor is working

Fridge is not working

Check: power is on or not by noticing the light, if the fridge light lids but compressor is not working, please contact the technical support

The fridge is not cold enough

1. Adjust the temperature incorrectly
2. Power surges
3. Too much items in the fridge
4. Fridge door is not firmly closed, or gasket door seal is broken or damaged
5. Fridge installed in confined space or too high environment temperature

The fridge has loud noise

1. Installed the fridge on inclined or uneven surface
2. Surrounding area is shaking or unstable
3. Please contact technical support if the loud noise comes from the fan or compressor

Fridge is too cold

1. Temperature setting is too much
2. When storing high humidity items in the fridge, small ice may formed but it does not indicate that the fridge is malfunctioned or too cold

water droplets found on the fridge side

This can happen in high relative humidity environment, just wipe those droplets with dry cloth

the tub falls down during spin wash

Check: There are 4 suspension springs on each tub corners, when the tub is filled with water, it will fall down based on clothes weight and water volume and it will rise up while spin washing and water drained which is not the machine malfunction. If the tub leans or falls down on any direction, suspension spring(s) maybe fall off or broken, the tub maybe broken (in case that the machine is used for a long time)
