REFRIGERATOR INSTRUCTION GUIDELINES

1.Do not open the refrigerator frequently or leave it open for a long time. This is to prevent water dripping inside the refrigerator and will cause the waste of coolness and consumption of energy.

2.Do not refrigerate unnecessary items or hard-to-rot foodstuff such as pumpkin, shallot, garlic, potato as it will make the refrigerator to work overload and waste the storage space without necessity.

3.Adjust the temperature according to the actual operating condition for energy saving.

4.Do not refrigerate bottles bigger than the door shelf or the tray as the door will not close completely causing coolness to leak.

5.Frequently check the door opening seal, it must be closed to the refrigerator’s body completely. Do not leave the seal dirty or damaged or deteriorated as the coolness will leak and will cause unnecessary consumption of energy.

6.If you will not be at home for several days or there are nothing refrigerated in the refrigerator, the plug should be disconnected for energy saving, In this case, clean the refrigerator and leave it half-open to prevent bad odour.

7.Clean the drain tray located over the compressor at the back of the refrigerator every three months to prevent the odour generated from humidity.

8.Energy saving dryer pipes and heating pipes embedded around the refrigerator cabinet are helping to prevent “condensation” on the outer surface of the cabinet without consuming energy. This will make the outer wall of the refrigerator get warm and that is not a malfunction.

9.Drinking water bottles, beverage bottles such as soft drinks and fruit juices should be sealed closely to prevent odour to get into the bottles.

These models are tailored for the modern household, offering an optimal balance of efficiency, functionality, and style.

One standout feature of both models is the advanced inverter compressor technology. This innovation allows the refrigerator to adjust its cooling performance based on the interior temperature variations, which not only ensures consistent cooling but also enhances energy efficiency. This means users can enjoy significant savings on electricity bills without compromising on freshness.

Another key characteristic is the Prime Fresh feature, which maintains a lower temperature in the freezer compartment. This technology allows for the long-term storage of food while preserving its taste and nutritional value. By creating a frosty environment, it prevents freezer burn and retains the quality of stored items much longer.

Space optimization is another highlight in the NR-BY602 and NR-BY552 designs. Both models come equipped with adjustable shelves and spacious door bins, allowing users to organize their groceries effortlessly. The addition of a dedicated vegetable compartment ensures that fruits and vegetables stay fresh for longer periods, maintaining their crunch and flavor.

Panasonic has also integrated a Nanoe technology in these fridges, which acts as an air purification system. This feature enables the refrigerator to reduce the presence of bacteria and odors, contributing to a cleaner and healthier environment for food storage. This is particularly beneficial for households where food safety is a priority.

Furthermore, both refrigerators are designed with a sleek and modern aesthetic, ensuring they fit seamlessly into any kitchen decor. The exterior finish is not only stylish but also easy to clean and resistant to smudges, maintaining a lustrous appearance even in busy households.
