INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using the Refrigerator
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
Before connecting the refrigerator to a power source, let the unit stand upright for
approximately 4 hours to mitigate the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from
improper handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth. (Refer to the cleaning
instruction on page 5)
Installing the Refrigerator
This appliance is designed to be free standing only, and should not be recessed or built-in.
Place the refrigerator on a leveled/even floor surface that is strong enough to support the
weight of the refrigerator when it is fully loaded to prevent vibrations and allow water to
properly drain. The front feet can be adjusted to level the appliance properly.
The leveling feet should only be used in forward and backward motions and never side to
side.
Allow at least 5cm of space between the back and sides of the refrigerator to allow
proper air ventilation. Adjust the two front feet to keep the refrigerator leveled or elevated.
Situate the refrigerator away from direct sunlight and sources of direct heat (stove, heater,
radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may also affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may
cause an increase electrical consumption. Ambient temperature below 50°F or above 85°F
will hinder the performance of this appliance.
This unit is not designed for outside installation.
Avoid situating the refrigerator in moist OR pest infestation areas.
Plug the refrigerator into dedicated, 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 service center.
After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, turn the unit on and allow the unit to cool
down for 2~3 hours before placing food in the refrigerator or freezer compartment.
Do not place items on the top of this appliance.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
Allow hot foods to cool to room temperature before placing in the refrigerator. Overloading
the refrigerator forces the compressor to work harder. Foods that freeze too slowly may
lose quality, or spoil.
Do not adjust the temperatures colder than necessary. Refer to page 4 for temperature
instructions.
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the
refrigerator. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the refrigerator.
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as
