Appliance Safety

Your safety and the safety of others are very important to us.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your

appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.
You can be seriously injured or even killed if you don’t follow instructions.
Safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, how to reduce the

chance of injury, and what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

 Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
 Do not remove ground prong, nor use a 3/2 adapter.
 Do not use an extension cord.
 Use care not to plug into outlets controlled by wall switches.
 Disconnect power before servicing.
 After servicing, replace all parts and panels before operating.
 Use nonflammable cleaners.
 Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from

appliances.

 Use two or more people to move and install appliance.

NOTE: Drawer refrigerators are provided with anti-tip brackets. Always install

prior to use.

Proper disposal of an old appliance:

Old appliances can represent a suffocation hazard to children.

Remove doors from your old appliance.
Leave shelves in place.
If an old appliance contains refrigerants, it must be recycled by a licensed service

or disposal company.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury

when using your appliance, follow these basic precautions:

Installation Instructions

Excessive Weight Hazard !

Use two or more people to move and install your appliance.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

ALLOW APPLIANCE TO SIT UPRIGHT FOR 24 HOURS BEFORE TURNING ON, TO
ALLOW THE COMPRESSOR LUBRICANT TO DRAIN.

1. Remove packaging materials.

2. Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the appliance.
Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers.
Rinse with warm water and dry.

3. Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive
cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of
your appliance.

4. When Moving Your Appliance:
Your appliance is heavy. When moving the appliance for cleaning or service,
be sure to protect the floor. Always pull the appliance straight out when
moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the appliance when trying to move it
because floor damage can occur.

5. Clean Before Using:
After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside of your
appliance before using it. See cleaning instructions in Appliance Care.

6. Some upright models have leveling legs. Level as necessary for best
operation.

7. If your appliance has casters, after moving into place, lock the brakes on
those casters supplied with brakes. Always unlock before moving the
appliance for cleaning.

Key Eject lock (some models):

To lock or unlock the appliance, you must hold the key in the lock while turning.
The lock is spring-loaded, so the key cannot be left in the lock.

If the key is lost, contact your dealer or SUMMIT APPLIANCE for a replacement.
Always give the model and serial number of your appliance when requesting a
replacement key. Keys for most models can be ordered online at

www.summitappliance.com/support

Location Requirements

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away
from appliances. Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion or
death.

Location:

IMPORTANT: Do not install the appliance near an oven, radiator, or other heat
source, nor in a location where the temperature will fall below 40°F (5°C). Do not
place in direct sunlight.

Check the strength of the floor before installing your appliance. It should hold the
weight of a fully loaded appliance. Allow at least 4” (10 cm) of airspace at the top
and on both sides of the appliance and also 4” between the back of the appliance
and the wall. If the appliance is going to be placed next to a wall, leave extra
space on the hinge side so the door can open wider than its width.

NOTE: Allow 4” (10 cm) clearance at the top and sides and a ¼” (0.64 cm)

clearance between appliances. IF YOUR MODEL HAS THE LETTERS “BI”

IN THE SUFFIX, IT IS DESIGNED FOR BUILT-IN USE AND REQUIRES
ONLY

MINIMAL

CLEARANCES EXCEPT AT THE BACK WHERE AT
LEAST 2” OF CLEARANCE SHOULD BE ALLOWED. ALL FF590,
SCR610BL, AND ACF48W MODELS ARE ALSO BUILT-IN CAPABLE.

Electrical Shock Hazard

 Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
 Do not remove ground prong.
 Do not use an adapter.
 Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire, electrical shock or
death.

Recommended grounding method:

A 115 Volt (AC only) 60 Hz grounded electrical supply with a 15- or 20- amp fuse
or circuit breaker is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving
only your appliance be provided. Use outlets that cannot be turned off by a
switch or pull chain. Do not use an extension cord.
