SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Read all of the instructions before using this appliance. When using this

appliance, always exercise basic safety precautions, including the fol-

lowing:

1) Use this appliance only foe its intended purpose as described in this use

and care guide.

2) This refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the

installation instructions before it is used. See grounding instructions in the

installation section.

3) Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always

grasp the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.

4) Repair or replace immediately, all electric service cords that have become

frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or

abrasion damage along its length, the plug or the connector end.

5) Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or before making any repairs.

NOTE: If for any reason this product requires service, we strongly

recommended that a certified technician performs the service.

6) Do not use any electrical device or any sharp instrument in defrosting your

refrigerator.

7) If your old refrigerator is not being used, we recommend that you remove

the doors. This will reduce the possibility of danger to children.

8) After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surface in the

freezer compartment, particularly when hands are damp or wet. Skin may

adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.

9) Do not refreeze foods, which have been thawed completely. The United

States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No.69

reads:"...You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if they

still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold-below 40F".

“...Thawed ground meats, poultry, or fish that have any off-odor or off-color

should not be refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream should

be discarded. If the odor or color of any food is poor or questionable,

discard it. The food may be dangerous to eat.”

“…Even partial thawing and re-freezing reduce the eating quality of foods,

particularly fruits, vegetables, and prepared foods. The eating quality of red

meats is affected less than that of many other foods. Use refrozen foods as

soon as possible, to save as much of its eating quality as you can.”

1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base, all

adhesive tape holding, refrigerator accessories inside and outside, and

the plastic stoppers holding the shelves. Slide out and remove plastic or

foam guard used to secure the compressor from shipping damage due

to vibration and shock.

2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials

Leveling Your Refrigerator:

• Your refrigerator has two leveling legs, which are located in the front

comers of your refrigerator. After properly placing your refrigerator in

its final position, you can level your refrigerator.

• Levering legs can be adjusted by turning them clockwise to raise your

refrigerator or by turning them counterclockwise to lower your

refrigerator. The refrigerator door will close easier when the leveling

legs are raised.

• To assure your refrigerator works at the maximum efficiency it was

designed for, you should install it in a location where there is proper air

circulation, plumbing and electrical connections.

• The following are recommended clearances around the refrigerator:

Sides……………3/4 "(19mm)

Top....................2" (50mm)

Back..................2" (50mm)

Electrical Requirement

• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet)

with proper grounding to power the refrigerator.

• Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding in

order to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous practice

since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and may

result in shock hazard.

• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards

under certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use

only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a

3-slot outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension

cord must be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the

appliance.

• Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated or

heated e.g. garage etc. Your refrigerator was not designed to operate in

temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit.

• Select a suitable location for the refrigerator on a hard even surface

away from direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators, baseboard

heaters, cooking appliances etc. Any floor unevenness should be

corrected with the leveling legs located on the front bottom corners of

the refrigerator.
