outlet. The serial rating plate indicates the voltage
and frequency the appliance is designed for.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding
plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualifi ed electrician or service agent
if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
Do not connect your appliance to extension
cords or together with another appliance in the
same wall outlet. Do not splice the power cord.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the
third ground prong from the power cord. Do not
use extension cords or ungrounded (two prongs)
adapters.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similar qualifi ed person in order to avoid hazard.

lukewarm wet cloth.
Place the appliance on a fl oor that is strong

CARE & MAINTENANCE
CLEANING
Ensure the appliance is unplugged before cleaning.
To clean the inside of the appliance, use a soft
cloth and a solution of a tablespoon of baking
soda to one quart of water or a mild soap
solution or some mild detergent.
Wash removable shelves in a mild detergent
solution, then dry and wipe with a soft cloth.
Clean the outside with a soft, damp cloth and
some mild detergent.
It is important to keep the area clean where the
door seals against the cabinet. Clean this area
with a soapy cloth. Rinse with a damp cloth and
let dry.
Note: Do not use cleaners containing ammonia or
alcohol on the appliance. Ammonia or alcohol can
damage the appearance of the appliance. Never
use any commercial or abrasive cleaners or sharp
objects on any part of the appliance.
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within a few
hours and should not affect the temperature of your
appliance 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, take the proper steps to
protect your contents.
Note: Wait 3 to 5 minutes before attempting
to restart the refrigerator if operation has been
interrupted.
VACATION
• Short vacations: Leave the appliance operating
during vacations of less than three weeks.
• Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used
for several months, remove all items and turn
off the appliance. Clean and dry the interior
thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth,
leave the door open slightly, blocking it open if
necessary.
DEFROSTING INSTRUCTIONS
There is no need to defrost the refrigerator
compartment as any ice build up on the back wall
will be defrosted automatically. Defrost water from
the refrigerator compartment is channeled into a
drip tray above the compressor. Heat transfer from
the compressor causes the water to evaporate.
The freezer compartment should be defrosted any
time the frost reaches 3 - 5 mm (1/4 in) thick. To
defrost the freezer compartment, set the thermostat
to “OFF”, unplug the appliance and remove all
frozen contents. Leave the freezer door open to
allow the frost to melt. Discard the melted water and
leave the door open until the interior of the freezer
is dry.
Remember to protect your fl oors during the
defrosting process by putting towels or a pan under
the appliance in case of leaking.
Important: Never use sharp or pointed instruments
to remove ice. The freezer compartment contains
refrigerated gas lines. If these lines are accidentally
pierced it will render the refrigerator inoperable
and void the manufacturer’s warranty. Do not allow
the refrigerator to continue operation if the freezer
compartment is pierced.
MOVING
Remove all contents.
Turn the adjustable legs up to avoid damage.
Tape the door shut.
Be sure the appliance stays in the upright
position during transportation. Protect the
outside of the appliance with a blanket.
If the appliance is placed on its back or side
during transportation, upon reaching the
destination, allow it to remain upright for 6
hours before plugging in to avoid damage to
internal components.
DISPOSAL
This appliance may not be treated as regular
household waste, it should be taken to the
appropriate waste collection point for recycling
of electrical components. For information on local
waste collection points, contact your local waste
removal agency or government offi ce.
