OPERATION

CONTROLLING TEMPERATURES

The refrigerator controls its temperature automatically. However, if needed, adjust the temperature as follows.

Freezer compartment

FREEZER TEMP. CONTROL regulates the quantity of cold air to the freezer.

		FREEZER TEMP. CONTROL						7(MAX)
						(WINTER SEASON)		For making ice rapidly or fast freezing.
MIN				MED			MAX
							Coldest	4(MED)
1	2		3	4	5	6	7
								For normal freezing.
								1(MIN)
								When frozen food or ice cream is not stored.

•7 (MAX) setting directs more cold air to the freezer compartment. (mak- ing the freezer compartment colder)

•1 (MIN) setting directs less cold air to the freezer compartment. (making the freezer compartment less colder)

•If the freezer does not cool even when setting FREEZER TEMP. CON- TROL to 7(MAX), set REFRIGERATOR TEMP. CONTROL to 5 (Coldest) as well.

Refrigerator compartment

REFRIGERATOR TEMP. CONTROL controls the compressor running time of the refrigeration system.

NOTE:

•For hot summer conditions (about over 35°C ambient temperature), set your FREEZER TEMP. CONTROL to less colder than 4(MED) towards 1(MIN). This is because 7(MAX) setting may re- sult in too little air flow to the refrigerator compartment, causing too warm tem- perature in the refrigerator compartment. And set your REFRIGERATOR TEMP. CONTROL to colder than 3(MED).

ENGLISH

•5 (Coldest) setting will result in colder temperature in the both (refrigera- tor and freezer) compartments.

•1 (MIN) setting will result in warmer temperature in the both (refrigerator and freezer) compartments.

•If the refrigerator is operated for a long time with REFRIGERATOR TEMP. CONTROL set at 5 (Coldest), foods stored in the refrigerator compart- ment may also freeze.

•Low ambient temperature may cause placed foods to freeze even if RE- FRIGERATOR TEMP. CONTROL is set to 1 (MIN).

•The freezer compartment may not cool sufficiently when leaving REFRIG- ERATOR TEMP. CONTROL as 1 (MIN) for an extensive period. To cool the freezer compartment properly, set REFRIGERATOR TEMP. CON- TROL closer to 5 (Coldest).

•With FREEZER TEMP. CONTROL set to 7(MAX), there will be less cold air di- rected to the refrigerator compartment, and the refrigerator compartment may not become cold enough.

HINTS WHEN MAKING ICE Lever

1.Do not over fill the Ice cube trays; otherwise the ice cubes will be joined to- gether when frozen.

2.When the ice cubes are made, turn the lever clockwise to empty the ice into Ice cube box.

NOTE: To prevent damage to the Ice cube box, do not make ice in the Ice cube box or pour oil into it.

DEFROSTING

Defrosting is fully automatic due to a unique energy saving system. Whereby the defrost cycle start time is proportional to the running time of your refrigerator compressor, i. e., the less time the refrigerator compressor operates (during the winter season or you’re away on holidays), the longer the time between each defrost cycle.
