When purchasing imported refrigerators, how can consumers quickly and accurately select the products they need? How to avoid the "minefield"? In view of the problems that consumers tend to overlook when purchasing imported refrigerators, we have summarized four purchasing tips from the perspective of inspection - "first look, second question, third check, and four essentials".
"one look"
"One look" mainly refers to checking the CCC certification mark and energy efficiency label of imported refrigerators. CCC certification is China's compulsory product certification. It is a product evaluation system implemented by the Chinese government in accordance with laws and regulations in order to protect the personal health and safety of consumers, protect the environment, and protect national security. It requires that products must comply with national standards and relevant specifications. Refrigerators belong to China's compulsory product certification category. Only refrigerators that meet my country's national standards and relevant technical specifications can be shipped, sold and used normally. Therefore, consumers must choose imported refrigerators with CCC certification marks. In addition to the CCC certification mark, consumers also need to check the energy efficiency label when purchasing imported refrigerators. Energy efficiency label is an information label that indicates product energy efficiency level and other performance indicators. It is usually stated on the product packaging or in the instruction manual. In our country, energy efficiency is divided into five levels according to the energy efficiency of household appliances. The levels from 1 to 5 indicate that the energy consumption of the product is from low to high. The energy efficiency label directly reflects the power-saving performance of imported refrigerators, so consumers can better choose imported refrigerators that meet their energy-saving needs by checking the energy efficiency label.
"two ask"
The "second question" mainly refers to asking about the circulation system method and refrigeration method of the imported refrigerator. The circulation system mode of a refrigerator is usually determined by the number of evaporation circulation systems in the refrigerator. The single-cycle system means that the refrigerator and freezer share an evaporation cycle system, which is prone to problems such as uneven freezing or food odor during use; while the dual-cycle system means that the refrigerator uses separate evaporation cycle systems for refrigeration and freezing, keeping fresh and freezing. Better results. What also affects the effectiveness of the refrigerator in refrigerating and freezing food is the refrigeration method of the refrigerator. Currently, the refrigeration methods of refrigerators on the market are mainly divided into direct cooling and air cooling. Direct cooling means that the evaporator of the refrigerator is in direct contact with the inner wall of the refrigerator, and the evaporator absorbs heat to achieve a cooling effect. Therefore, direct cooling refrigerators are prone to uneven temperature distribution, which affects the food preservation effect; air cooling means that the refrigerator uses a fan to transport cold air to all parts of the refrigerator, so the temperature distribution is more even and frost is less likely to occur. When purchasing, consumers can quickly select products that meet their purchase expectations and actual needs by asking dealers about these two operating modes of imported refrigerators.
"three nuclear"
"Three cores" mainly refers to the fact that consumers should pay attention to verify and confirm three aspects when purchasing imported refrigerators. First, verify that the name, trademark or identification mark of the manufacturer or responsible reseller, appliance model or serial number and other information are marked on the refrigerator; second, verify that the model marked on the package is consistent with the actual product model, and that the package contains Chinese instructions, and confirm that the product information label fixed on the refrigerator is in Chinese; third, verify that the rated voltage, rated power and other parameters indicated on the refrigerator comply with Chinese standards.
"Four want"
The "four requirements" mainly refer to consumers asking sellers for valid invoices and three-guarantee certificates for purchasing imported refrigerators. In my country, refrigerators are products in the "Catalogue of Certain Products Subject to Three Guarantees" and are protected by my country's "Liability Regulations for Repair, Replacement and Return of Certain Products", that is, if a performance failure occurs within 7 days from the date of sale of the refrigerator, consumers can choose to return it. , exchange or repair; if a performance failure occurs within 15 days from the date of sale, consumers can choose to exchange or repair it; within the validity period of the three guarantees, if the product still cannot be used normally after two repairs, the product will be repaired with the warranty provided by the repairer. With repair records and certificates, the seller is responsible for exchanging products of the same model and specifications for consumers free of charge or returning them as required. Imported refrigerators are no exception. Therefore, when purchasing imported refrigerators, consumers should ask clearly about the use and maintenance matters, three-guarantee methods and repair units. After unpacking, inspection and correct debugging, consumers should keep valid invoices and three-guarantee certificates for legal maintenance. own rights and interests. If you have special needs, you can also ask for an inspection and quarantine certificate for entry goods from the importer or seller.
