Use and Care Manual

10. Care and Cleaning

11. The Following Situations are Normal

Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning!

• Use soft cloth dampened with warm water to wipe the inner surfaces and external

appearance of the refrigerator.

• Use neutral detergent to clean the heavy stains, and dry with clean soft cloth.

• For long vacation or absences, remove food and unplug the refrigerator. Clean the

refrigerator and leave the doors open a little. Then place the refrigerator in

ventilated place.

• Do not use cleansers containing corrosive and deliquescent material (such as

scouring powder, bleach, soap powder, alkaline cleansers, benzene, gasoline, acid,

water, etc.) to clean the appearance panels, door gaskets and parts.

NOTE: Do not sprinkle water on the refrigerator during cleaning because that would

reduce the insulating property of electrical components and erode the metal parts.

The flow of refrigerant through the evaporator may create a boiling or gurgling

sound.

In the rain and high humidity weather, moisture may form on the outside of

refrigerator or door gaskets. You can wipe damp surfaces with dry cloth.

The temperature on the back panel may be high (particularly in summer) due to

the heat emission of the condenser.

The temperature on external surfaces of the compressor may be high when the

compressor is working.

The compressor may cause a high hum or pulsating sound when it is at starting

or stopping.

It's normal to hear metal clanking noises from the compressor when the

refrigerator is bumped.

There may be a slight smell coming from the rubber wheels. This is harmless for

health.
