Tips for using the refrigerator wisely for energy savings
1.

1. Reduce the rate of opening and closing of doors.
Frequent opening and closing leads to waste of energy.
2. Do not overfill the refrigerator.
Overfilling the refrigerator prevents smooth circulation of cool air, even cooling throughout and consumes unnecessary power. Place food that you can see the back wall of the refrigerator.
3. Do not place hot food in the refrigerator.
Placing hot food in the refrigerator raises the temperature, which, in turn, raises the temperature of surrounding food.
4. Provide sufficient spacing around the refrigerator.
Installing the refrigerator with insufficient clearance between the refrigerator and surrounding objects prevents the release of heat and thus leads to waste of energy. 5. Replace door gaskets if damaged. Cool air can leak through damaged gaskets, which leads to waste of energy. If a business card inserted between the gasket and the refrigerator slides down, the gasket needs replacing.

Note
If you use "Veg" for a long period, vegetables with high water content may freeze. In this case, cancel the "Veg" setting. If "Save" mode is on while "Veg" is set, cooling is reduced starting from "Veg". Pg.60 When the outside temperature is low, the temperature inside the case may also be low.
In the following cases, cancel the "Veg" setting. If the surface of vegetables that are sensitive to low temperatures, such as eggplant, has dents or discoloration. If you are concerned about condensation in the Vegetable Compartment.

Tips for storing vegetables

Vegetables recommended for storage at room temperature Foods prone to low temperature damage

It is recommended to store garlic, onions, potatoes, sweet potatoes and pumpkins (whole) in a cool dark place (where the room temperature is kept constant and low and away from direct sunlight).

If you put food in the Vegetable Compartment for a long time, the color may change or the taste may deteriorate depending on the food. The food may lose vitamin C, become moldy, and rot.
Vegetablestomatoes, bell peppers, cucumbers, eggplants, green beans, sweet potatoes, okra, etc.

Fruitsbananas, pineapples, mangoes, papayas, avocados, lemons, etc.

What to do in the following cases

Please indicate the timing as too long may not be edible especially banana.

When you are storing a small quantity of vegetables, it may not be possible to maintain high humidity, so please wrap the vegetables in cellophane wrap. Due to the high humidity in the Vegetable Compartment, depending on the amount and type of vegetables, condensation may form on the
case, the surface of the moisture unit, or the surface of food. If you are concerned about condensation, wrap the food in cellophane wrap. If the moisture unit is blocked by a food bag or container, a large amount of condensation will occur. Move the food bag or container
blocking the moisture unit to another location. Food can easily get damaged if water collects in the case so wipe off the dew condensation with a soft cloth. When storing dry food such as rice or seaweed in the Vegetable Compartment, put it in a closed container (bag) before storing.
Dried food may absorb moisture.

Note
The vertical storage space has a slightly higher temperature than other spaces.

Possible Cause

Electric shock when you touch

the body of the refrigerator

The refrigerator may be charged with static electricity. This is safe.

Static interference on radio and television
There are thin hair lines on the plastic parts. The door surfaces/the sides or top surface of the refrigerator are wavy or distorted.
There are small holes inside the door and on the side of the Refrigerator Compartment.

This is due to the very slight electromagnetic waves generated by this refrigerator. Install the refrigerator away from TVs, radios, entry phones, etc. Keep the power supply line away from any antenna wires.
These lines are caused by liquid resin flowing when the plastic is molded. Especially visible on transparent parts. There is no issue with the quality and will not crack.
Slight waving and/or distortions are generated in the manufacturing process of the refrigerator. They may be conspicuous depending on the position and brightness of the light source, but they are not a fault. Also, they do not affect the performance of the refrigerator.
These holes are used to release the internal air when filling the doors and compartment with insulating material in the refrigerator manufacturing process. They do not indicate any fault.

Holes (inside door)

NOTES ON NON-CFC REFRIGERATORS/GUIDE ON TOTAL STORABLE WEIGHT
Notes on non-CFC refrigerators

This refrigerator uses hydrocarbons, instead of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), in its refrigerant and insulation materials. Hydrocarbons do not damage the ozone layer, have minimal impact on global warming, and are thus considered comparatively environment-friendly.
Note that hydrocarbons are flammable. The refrigerant is sealed in the cooling circuit and should not leak under normal operation. If the cooling circuit is damaged, open a window to ventilate the room, and avoid using fire and electrical appliances. Keep your distance from the refrigerator, and contact a customer service center to request repair.

Guide on total storable weight
