OPERATION
Water in food and air will frost on the inside wall and
the surface of shelf evaporator when the refrigerator is
operating in cooling mode. The frost with certain thick-
ness will affect the cooling effect, so it is necessary to
regularly defrost your refrigerator in order to ensure
efficient operation. Generally, the frost must be removed
immediately when it exceeds 5mm.
- Keep the drainage hole clean so that the defrosted water flows down to the evaporating tray
smoothly. Once jammed, you can remove the pin in the drainage hole and clean it.
Then put it back.
• Miracle Zone When the temperature in the Miracle Zone is set lower than 0 , it is normal
that frost and ice appears around the cooling room; When the temperature is set higher than
0 , the frost will gradually melt.
• Freezer compartment Manual defrost freezer
Before defrosting - unplug the power plug, open the door and take out the food and drawers in the
freezer, you can store the food in the refrigerator temporarily.
Defrosting – Use the defrosting board to scrape off the frost on the
inside wall of the freezer and on the surface of the shelf evaporator.
Wipe the defrosted water with a cloth and then dry.
After defrosting – turn on the power supply.
