§ 4 Casters

• Before connecting the unit to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours.

This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during

transportation.

• Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

Ø Installation of Your Appliance

• Place your refrigerator-freezer on a floor that is strong enough to support the refrigerator-

freezer when it is fully loaded. To level your refrigerator-freezer, adjust the leveling legs at the

bottom of unit.

• Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the unit, which allows the proper air

circulation to cool the compressor and condenser.

• Locate the unit away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.).

Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical

consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the refrigerator- freezer not

to perform properly.

• Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.

• Plug the unit into an exclusive properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under any

circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions

concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an

authorized Avanti Products service center.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Ø ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is

equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the

possibility of electrical shock.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied. For

personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~/60Hz electrical ground outlet with three-prong.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly

grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to

have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent

accidental injury.

The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage

rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also

prevent overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never unplug

the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the

receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise

damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end.

When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.

Ø EXTENSION CORD

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do

not use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord it is

absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord

having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at least

10 amperes.

Ø SURGE PROTECTOR

Most electrical appliances use a series of electric control boards to operate. These boards are very

susceptible to power surges and could be damaged or destroyed.

If the appliance is going to be used in an area or if your city / country is prone to power surges / outages;

it is suggested that you use a power surge protector for all electrical devices / appliances you use. The

surge protector that you select must have a surge block high enough to protect the appliance it is

connected to. If you have any questions regarding the type and size of surge protector needed contact

a licensed electrician in your area.

Damages due to power surges are not considered a manufacturer covered defect and will void your

product warranty.

~Warning~

Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is

damaged, have it replaced by an authorized Avanti Products service center.

Ø Setting the Temperature Control

• To control the internal temperature, adjust the

control dials according to the ambient temperature or

purpose of use.

• The first time you turn the unit on, set the

temperature control to “FAST FREEZE”.

• After 24 to 48 hours, adjust the temperature control

to the setting that best suits your needs.

• Do not leave the unit set at FAST FREEZE as the

compressor will continue to run continuously and

energy consumption will be affected.

• The setting of “4 - 5” should be correct for home or office refrigerator use.

• The range of the temperature control is from position “1” the warmest to “7” the coldest in the

freezer section.

•

NOTE:

§ IF THE UNIT IS UNPLUGGED, HAS LOST POWER, OR IS TURNED OFF, YOU MUST WAIT 3

TO 5 MINUTES BEFORE RESTARTING THE UNIT. IF YOU ATTEMPT TO RESTART BEFORE

THIS TIME DELAY, THE REFRIGERATOR-FREEZER WILL NOT START.

NOTE:

• If the unit is unplugged, lost power, or turned off; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the

unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the freezer will not start.

• Large amounts of food will lower the cooling efficiency of the appliance.

• If you choose to change the thermostat setting, adjust thermostat control by one numerical

increment at a time. Allow several hours for temperature to stabilize between adjustments.

Ø Defrosting Your Freezer

• When? For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the freezer

when the frost on the freezer walls is excessive or ¼ to ½ inch thick.

• Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low.

CAUTION

Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In addition, never use a

sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils and will void

the warranty. We recommend using the plastic scraper provided with your unit.

• Remove the frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to protect the food.

• Unplug the freezer. The “POWER ON INDICATOR” light should be OFF.

• During defrosting, the ice melts into the cabinet.

• Remove the drain plug on the inside floor of the freezer by pulling straight out.

• Place a shallow pan outside drain outlet. The defrost water will drain out.

• Check the pan occasionally so the water does not overflow.

• Clean the interior of the freezer.

• Replace the plug on the inside floor.

• Reconnect electrical connection. The “POWER ON INDICATOR” light should be ON

• Reset the thermostat to desired setting.

• Allow the cabinet to cool for one hour.

• Return food to the freezer.

OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE

HELPFUL HINT:

Defrosting usually takes a few hours. Leaving the door open will help speed the process. Also,

pouring warm water (not boiling) on the ice/frost will help speed melting. If you must use a

scraper- please use caution - it is very easy to damage the freezer compartment and void your

warranty.

Ø The Freezer Compartment

• This compartment is designed for the long-term storage of frozen food. Storage time is up to three

months.

• The storage life of frozen foods varies and the recommended storage time should not be exceeded.

The instructions regarding the care of frozen foods should be followed when defrosting the freezer.

• Pre-packed commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen foods

manufacturer’s instructions for a three star frozen food storage compartment or home freezer.

• Place frozen food into the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase. If there are

instructions on

the packet, carefully follow these instructions regarding storage times.

• The freezer door is susceptible to breaking due to excessive ice build up. Be sure to defrost when

the ice reaches ¼ to ½ inch thick.

A storage basket is provided for the organization of odd-shaped items. To reach other packages in the

freezer, just slide the basket to one side, or lift it out

Ø Freezing Fresh Foods

• Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed food, correct temperature and taking into account

hygienic precautions will substantially influence the quality of freezing the food or storing of the

frozen foods.

• This compartment is designed for the long-term storage of frozen food.

• The storage life of frozen foods varies and the recommended storage time should not be exceeded.

• Pre-packed commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen foods

manufacturer’s instructions for a three star frozen food storage compartment or home freezer.

• Place frozen food into the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase. If there are instructions on

the packet, carefully follow these instructions regarding storage times.

• Carefully select food you intend to freeze, it should be of adequate quality and suitable for freezing.

• Use correct packaging and wrap it tight.

• The packaging should be airtight and shouldn’t leak since this could cause substantial vitamin loss

and dehydration of foods.

• Foils and bags should be soft enough to tightly wrap around the foods.

• When preparing foods to be frozen, consider sanitary precautions.

• Mark packages with following data: kind and amount of foods and the date of loading.

• It is most Important that the food is frozen as quickly as possible.

• If the loading amount is too large, the quality of freezing is reduced which affects the quality of

frozen foods.

Ø Cleaning Your Freezer

• Upon installation of your new appliance, it is recommended that it be cleaned thoroughly.

• Unplug the freezer, remove the food and storage basket.

• Wash the inside with a damp warm cloth containing a water and baking soda solution. The solution

should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.

• Wash the storage basket with a mild detergent solution.

• Be sure to keep the door gasket (seal) clean to keep the unit running efficiently.

• The outside of the freezer should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.

• Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth.

• It is recommended that the unit be cleaned each time it is defrosted to help keep the unit odor free

and running efficiently.

Ø Vacation Time

• Remove all the food.

• Unplug the freezer.

• Clean the freezer.

• Leave the door open slightly to avoid possible formation of condensation, mold, or odors.

• Use extreme caution in the case of children. The unit should not be accessible to child’s’ play.

• Short vacations: Leave the freezer operating during vacations of less than three weeks.

• Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all food and unplug

the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the

door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary or have the door removed.

Ø Moving Your Freezer

• Remove all the food.

• Securely tape down all loose items inside your freezer.

• Remove the rollers to prevent damage.

• Tape the doors shut.

• Be sure the freezer stays in the upright position during transportation.

Ø Energy Saving Tips

• The freezer should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances

or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.

• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the freezer. Overloading the freezer forces

the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.

• Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the freezer. This

cuts down on frost build-up inside the freezer.

• Freezer storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners

interfere with cold air circulation, making the freezer less efficient.

Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many

items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible
