INSTRUCTIONS

To avoid installation/operation difficulties, read these instructions thoroughly.

• This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to a

properly grounded outlet. See “Grounding Instructions” section.

• Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged power

cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if the appliance has been damaged or dropped.

• Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl

inside the appliance.

• Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. The

fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.

• Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable

vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.

• Do not splice the power cord that is equipped with this

appliance.

• Keep power cord away from heated surfaces.

• Do not immerse power cord plug or the appliance itself

in water.

• Do not use this product near water-for example, in a wet

basement, near a swimming pool or near a sink.

• This appliance is intended for household use only. Do

not attempt to operate or store this appliance outdoors.

• This appliance should be serviced only by qualified

service personnel. Contact the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.

• This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an

electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

• Consult a qualified electrician or service technician if the

grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

• If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is your

personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

• For best operation, plug this appliance into its own

electrical outlet to prevent flickering of lights, blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit breaker.

• Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third

(ground) prong from the power cord.

• Do not use an adapter plug with this appliance.

• Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the

power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

BEFOR USING YOUR ALL REFRIGERATOR

• Remove the exterior and interior packing.

• Before connecting the refrigerator 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.

• When disposing your appliance, please choose an authorized disposal site.

INSTALLATION OF YOUR ALL REFRIGERATOR

• Place your refrigerator on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To level your refrigerator, adjust the front leveling leg at the bottom of the refrigerator.

• Locate the refrigerator away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the exterior of the cabinet and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform properly.

• Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.

• Plug the refrigerator 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 service center.

INSTALLATION SPECIFICATIONS FOR BUILT IN APPLICATION

TOOLS YOU WILL NEED

While performing installations described in this section, gloves, safety glasses and goggles should be worn.

• It is recommended that you do not install the unit directly beside a wall. This is to allow the door to have a greater then 90° opening swing. A limited door swing may lead todamaging the door gasket.

• The rough cabinet opening must be on a level floor area and at least 26” deep by 24” wide. The opening should also have a height

of at least 34 3/4”.

• The electrical outlet may be positioned from within either side of the adjacent cabinetry, or the rear of the shaded area (as shown in Fig A).

• If the electrical outlet is located inside the adjacent cabinetry, cut a 1-1/2” diameter hole to admit the power cord. If the cabinet wall is metal, the hole edge must be covered with a bushing or grommet.

NOTE:

• This refrigerator is in accordance with Energy Star, but in order to get the best energy efficiency, the built-in size should be: Width- 25 9/16” x Height- 35 7/16” x Depth- 26”

• If you did not leave enough installation size for the refrigerator in your kitchen, please refer to the installation drawing below.

Attention: The below installation method will not affect the performance of the unit but will affect the accordance with Energy Star.

ATTENTION

• In order for the cabinet to remain efficient do not over load it;

• Do not open the door unless necessary;

• Do not cover shelves with aluminum foil or any other shelf material which may prevent air circulation;

• Should the refrigerator be stored without use for long periods it is suggested, after a careful cleaning, to leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate inside the cabinet in order to avoid possible formations of condensation, mold or odors.
