Extra Information

The MDRT490MTF45AP is a compact top mount fridge freezer that fits a 595mm wide space. It uses an air-cooling (frost-free) principle with automatic defrosting, and a damper slider in the freezer lets you fine-tune the freezer temperature. The fridge setting button offers Cold, Mid, Coldest and Super Cool, and the fridge starts on the Coldest setting when first powered on.

Midea lists One-Touch Climate Control, Humidity Control, Active-C Fresh, Chill Zone, Smart Sensors and Mega Ice Box for this model. We will add further detail on these features when Midea supplies the full specification sheet.

For best results, allow warm food to cool before storing it, keep the door gaskets clean and intact, and avoid blocking the air outlet. Use the freezer star classification markings to guide storage times, and do not keep frozen food longer than three months if no storage time is stated on the packaging. Actual performance varies with ambient temperature, load and how often the doors are opened.
