IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using the refrigerator.
DANGER or WARNING: Risk of child entrapment. Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous .
Before you throw away your old refrigerator: take off the doors. Leave the shelves in place so that
children may not easily climb inside.
Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the refrigerator.
Never clean
refrigerator parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
refrigerator. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Refrigerator
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:
1 Refrigerator shelf
1 Crisper
1 Glass Crisper Cover
Ice Cube Tray
Instruction Manual
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.
Installation of Your Refrigerator
Place your refrigerator on a floor that is strong enough to support the refrigerator when it is fully
loaded. To level your refrigerator, adjust the legs at the front of the refrigerator.
Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the refrigerator, which allows the
proper air circulation to cool the compressor.
Locate the refrigerator 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 not to perform
properly.
Avoid locating the refrigerator in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to
form quickly on the evaporator requiring more frequent defrosting of the refrigerator.
a
a
WARNING
a
To
reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
injury when using your refrigerator, follow
these basic precautions:
This Unit Is For Indoor Use Only
- SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS -
8
Electrical Connection
This refrigerator should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this
refrigerator is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three
prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.
Do n
ot under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied.
For personal safety, this refrigerator must be properly grounded.
This refrigerator 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 refrigerator and not left exposed or dangling to prevent
accidental injury.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage
rating that matches the rating label on the refrigerator. This provides the best performance and also
prevent overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never
unplug the refrigerator 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 refrigerator, be careful not to damage the power cord.
Extension Cord
Because
of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do
not use an extension cord with this refrigerator. However, if you must use an extension cord it is
absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type refrigerator 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.
Surge Protector
Most electrical refrigerators 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 refrigerator 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 / refrigerators
you use. The surge protector that you select must have a surge block high enough to protect the
refrigerator 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.
aWARNINGaa
Improper connection of the equipment
-
grounding can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the
power cord of the range or refrigerator is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized Avanti
Products service center.

Reversing The Door Swing Of Your Refrigerator
This refrigerator-freezer has the capability of the doors opening from either the left or right side. The
unit is delivered to you with the doors opening from the left side. Should you desire to reverse the
opening direction, please call service for reversal instructions.
OPERATING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Setting the Temperature Control
Your unit has only one control for regulating the temperature in
the compartment. The temperature control is located on the
upper right hand side of the compartment.
The first time you turn the unit on, set the temperature control to
“7”. The range of the temperature control is from position "0” to
“7”. After 24 to 48 hours, adjust the temperature control to the
setting that best suits your needs. The setting of “4” should be
appropriate for home or office use.
To turn the refrigerator off, turn the temperature control to ”0”.
NOTE:
Turning the temperature control to “0” position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut off the
power to the unit.
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 unit will not start.
Interior Light
When you open the door the light will be ON automatically. When you close the door the light will turn
OFF automatically.
Defrosting Your Refrigerator
When? For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the freezer
compartment when the frost on the refrigerator walls is excessive or ¼ inch thick.
There is no need to defrost the refrigerator compartment, because ice depositing on the inner back
wall is defrosted automatically. Ice may deposit on the inner back wall during the compressor
operation; later on, when the compressor is not operating the ice will defrost and the water drops
collect and drain through the outlet in the inner back wall into the drain pan situated above the
compressor, from where is evaporates.
How?
x Reset the thermostat to the “0” position and disconnect the
power supply.
x Remove the frozen food from the refrigerator and place it in a cooler to protect the food.
x Leave the door open for a while so that you can easily scrap off the frost.
x Use a plastic scraper but be careful not to damage the inner surfaces of the freezer.
x Wipe up the scraped off frost and ice before it is completely defrosted.
x Replace all frozen food.
x Plug in power supply and refer to "Freezing Fresh Foods"
10
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 a plastic scraper.
Freezing Fresh Foods
x Proper use of the refrigerator, adequately packed food, correct temperature and taking into
account hygienic precautions will su
bstantially influence the quality of freezing the food or storing
of the frozen foods.
x This compartment is designed for the long-term storage of frozen food.
x The storage life of frozen foods varies and the recommended storage time should not be
exceeded.
x Pre-packed commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen foods
manufacturer’s instructions for frozen food storage compartment or home freezer.
x 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.
x Carefully select food you intend to freeze, it should be of adequate quality and suitable for
freezing.
x Use correct packaging and wrap it tight.
x The packaging should be airtight and shouldn’t leak since this could cause substantial vitamin
loss and dehydration of foods.
x Foils and bags should be soft enough to tightly wrap around the foods.
x When preparing foods to be frozen, consider sanitary precautions.
x Mark packages with following data: kind and amount of foods and the date of loading.
x It is extremely important that the food is frozen as quickly as possible.
x If the loading amount is too large, the quality of freezing is reduced which affects the quality of
frozen foods.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning The Refrigerator
x Turn the temperature control to "0", unplug the unit, and remove the food and baskets.
x Wash the inside with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2
tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
x Wash the baskets with a mild detergent solution.
x The outside of the unit should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.
CAUTION: Failure to unplug the refrigerator could result in electrical shock or personal injury.
Changing the Light Bulb
x Unplug the AC power cord from the wall.
x Remove the screw.
x Squeeze the tabs at the top and bottom of the light bulb cover
simultaneously.
x Remove the light bulb cover.
x Unscrew t he bulb.
x Replace with a 10 watts bulb that is the same shape and size.
x Replace the light bulb
cover.
x Install the screw.
11
Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your
refrigerator-freezer if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be
off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your food.
Vacation Time
Short vacations: Leave the unit operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
Long vacations: If the refrigerator 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
Moving Your Refriger
ator
x
Remove all the food.
x Securely tape down all loose items inside your unit.
x Turn the leveling screws up to the base to avoid damage.
x Tape the doors shut.
x Be sure the unit stays in the upright position during transportation.
Energy Saving Tips
x
The unit should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing refrigerators
or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.
x Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in the unit. Overloading the unit
forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
x Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit. This cuts
down on frost build-up inside the freezer.
x 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.
