Shutting off the Refrigerator

Handling Power Failure

Foods can be stored well after several hours of power failure, even during the summer. You should call your electric company to ask how long the food will last.

After a power failure, do not put new food into the fridge, and open the door as infrequently as possible.

If you are aware that there will be a power failure ahead of time, make cubed ice and put it in the upper part of the fresh food compartment.

If the temperature becomes warmer in the freezer due to a power failure or other malfunction, the expiration date on frozen food may change, and food quality may decrease.

Discontinuing Usage

If you do not want to use the fridge for a long period of time, pull out the plug. Cut off all power supply and water source. Clean the fridge as directed in this manual. Leave the fridge door open to prevent any odors from accumulating.

Vacation

If you will be on vacation for a long time, cut off the power source and water supply, and take out all the food. Clean the interior of the fridge after any frost melts. Wipe it clean to remove any food residue that could cause odors.

During Transport

Pull out the plug and cut off the power

Remove all foods.

Fix all moveable parts, such as fresh food shelves, the crisper, and freezer shelves, with tape.

Close the fridge doors and fix with tape to prevent opening during transport.

During transport, the maximum slant angle must not be over 45 degrees (from vertical standing) to prevent

damage to oil draining out of the compressor.

During transport, do not hold the handle of the fridge. This could cause property damage and is a threat to

personal safety.

It is suggested that you should not lay the refrigerator flat at any time. If you have to put it flat, refer to the notice on the package.
