Important Safety Instructions

Proper Disposal of your Appliance

Risk of child entrapment

Child entrapment and suocation are

not problems of the past. Junked or

abandoned appliances are still dangerous

– even if they will sit for “just a few days.”

If you are getting rid of your appliance,

please follow the instructions below to

help prevent accidents.

Before you throw away your

old unit:

• Remove door.

• Leave shelves in place so

children may not easily

climb inside.

• Have refrigerant removed

by a qualied service technician.

IMPORTANT

Your old unit may have a cooling

system that used CFCs or

HCFCs (chlorouorocarbons or

hydrochlorouorocarbons). CFCs and

HCFCs are believed to harm stratospheric

ozone if released to the atmosphere.

Other refrigerants may cause harm

to the environment if released to the

atmosphere. If you are throwing away

your old unit, make sure the refrigerant

is removed for proper disposal by a

qualied technician. If you intentionally

release refrigerant, you may be subject

to nes and imprisonment under the

provisions of environmental legislation.

First Steps

This Use & Care Guide provides general

installation and operating instructions

for your model. We recommend using a

service or kitchen contracting professional

to install your appliance. Use the unit only

as instructed in this Use & Care Guide.

Before starting the appliance, follow

these important rst steps.

Location

• Choose a place that is near a

grounded, non-GFCI, electrical outlet.

Do Not use an extension cord or an

adapter plug.

• For the most ecient operation, the unit

should be located where surrounding

temperatures will not drop below

0°F (-18°C) or exceed 110°F (43°C).

Additional compressor heaters are

not recommended. Models with

electromechanical temperature control

should not be located where the

surrounding temperature drops below

40°F (4°C). These models do not have

the automatic freeze control option to

prevent refrigerated food from freezing.

• Allow space around the unit for good

air circulation. Leave a 3” (75 mm)

space on all sides of the appliance for

adequate circulation.

3” (75 mm)

3” (75 mm) Air Space

3” (75 mm)

NOTE

The exterior walls of the appliance

may become quite warm as the

compressor works to transfer heat from

the inside. Temperatures as much as

30°F warmer than room temperature

can be expected. For this reason it

is particularly important in hotter

climates to allow enough space for air

circulation around your unit.

Leveling

The unit must have all bottom corners

resting rmly on a solid oor. The oor

must be strong enough to support a fully

loaded appliance.

NOTE

It is Very Important for your appliance

to be level in order to function properly.

If the unit is not leveled during

installation, the door may be misaligned

and not close or seal properly, causing

cooling, frost, or moisture problems.

To Level Your Appliance:

Adjust the front leveling feet so that the

front of the appliance is slightly higher

above the oor than in the back. To test the

angle, the door should swing closed at a

light touch from a halfway open position.

Cleaning (Prior to use)

• Wash any removable parts, the appliance

interior, and exterior with mild detergent

and warm water. Wipe dry. Do not use

harsh cleaners on these surfaces.

• Do not use razor blades or other

sharp instruments, which can scratch

the appliance surface when removing

adhesive labels. Any glue left from the

tape can be removed with a mixture

of warm water and mild detergent, or

touch the residue with the sticky side of

tape already removed. Do not remove

the serial plate.

Crispers

(some models)

The crispers, located

under the bottom

refrigerator shelf,

are designed for

storing fruits, vegetables, and other fresh

produce. Wash items in clear water and

remove excess water before placing them

in the crispers. Items with strong odors or

high moisture content should be wrapped

before storing.

Optional Features

• The appliance should

be located in the

coolest area of the

room, away from

heat producing

appliances or heating

ducts, and out of

Energy-Saving Tips

• Let hot foods cool to room temperature

before placing in the unit. Overloading

the unit 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 appliance. This cuts down

on frost build-up inside the unit.

• Appliance shelves and baskets should

not be lined with aluminum foil, wax

paper, or paper toweling. Liners

interfere with cold air circulation,

making the unit less ecient.

• 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.

Cleaning the Inside

Wash inside surfaces of the appliance

with a solution of 2 tbsp. (25 g) of baking

soda in 1 qt. (1 l) warm water. Rinse and

dry. Wring excess water out of the sponge

or cloth.

Wash the removable parts with the baking

soda solution mentioned above, or mild

detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry.

Care & Cleaning

CAUTION

• Damp objects stick to cold metal

surfaces. Do not touch interior metal

surfaces with wet or damp hands.

• Appliance must be unplugged (to

avoid electrical hazard) from power

source when defrosting unit.

Convertible model is frost free and will

defrost automatically, but should be

cleaned occasionally.

3. Place bin in desired position.

4. Lower bin onto supports until

locked in place.

Mid-Level Basket

This basket keeps things organized and

slides out for easy access.

Basket Divider

(some upright models)

Use these handy

dividers to keep the

various items stored in

your baskets more organized. To change

the location of the divider simply slide

your basket out, grab the divider from the

center and rotate in a counterclockwise

direction until it is desengaged. To

assemble, simply align as shown in the

gure below and rotate in a clockwise

direction until it spans into place.
