IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Grounding type wall receptacle
Power cord with
3-prong grounded plug
Do not, under
any circumstances,
cut, remove,
or bypass the
grounding prong.
Electrical Information
• The Beverage Center must be plugged
into its own dedicated 115 Volt,
60 Hz., 15 Amp, AC only electrical
outlet. The power cord of the appliance
is equipped with a three-prong grounding
plug for your protection against electrical
shock hazards. It must be plugged
directly into a properly grounded three
prong receptacle. The receptacle must be
installed in accordance with local codes and
ordinances. Consult a qualied electrician.
Avoid connecting refrigerator to a Ground
Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit. Do not use
an extension cord or adapter plug.
• If the power cord is damaged, it should
be replaced by an authorized service
technician to prevent any risk.
• Never unplug the appliance by pulling on
the power cord. Always grip the plug rmly,
and pull straight out from the receptacle to
prevent damaging the power cord.
• Unplug the appliance before cleaning
and before replacing a light bulb to avoid
electrical shock.
• Performance may be aected if the voltage
varies by 10% or more. Operating the unit
with insucient power can damage the
compressor. Such damage is not covered
under your warranty.
• Do not plug the appliance into an electrical
outlet controlled by a wall switch or pull
cord to prevent the appliance from being
turned o accidentally.
Child Safety
• Destroy carton, plastic bags, and any
exterior wrapping material immediately
after the Beverage Center is unpacked.
Children should never use these items
to play. Cartons covered with rugs,
bedspreads, plastic sheets or stretch wrap
may become airtight chambers, and can
quickly cause suocation.
• Remove all staples from the carton.
Staples can cause severe cuts, and destroy
nishes if they come in contact with other
appliances or furniture.
• An empty, discarded appliance is a very
dangerous attraction to children.
• Remove the door(s) of any appliance that
is not in use, even if it is being discarded.
Proper Disposal of your Beverage
Center
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suocation 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 old appliance, please follow the
instructions below to help prevent accidents.
We strongly encourage responsible appliance
recycling/disposal methods. Check with your utility
company or visit www.recyclemyoldfridge.com for
more information on recycling your old appliance.
Before you throw away your old
Beverage Center:
• Remove doors.
• Leave shelves in place so children may not
easily climb inside.
• Have refrigerant removed by a qualied
service technician.

INSTALLATION
This Use & Care Guide provides general
operating instructions for your model. Use
the appliance 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
electrical outlet. Do Not use an extension
cord or an adapter plug.
• For optimal performance, it is
recommended that you install the appliance
where the ambient temperature is between
70 and 78 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Allow space around the unit for good air
circulation. Leave a 2 inch space on the
back and sides of the Beverage Center for
adequate circulation.
• Be sure the appliance stays in the upright
position during transport.
• Keep the appliance from any hazardous or
combustible agents.
NOTE
The exterior walls of the Beverage Center
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 appliance.
Leveling
The Beverage Center must have all bottom
corners resting rmly on solid oor. The oor
must be strong enough to support a fully
loaded Beverage Center. NOTE: It is very
important for your appliance to be level in
order to function properly. If the appliance 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 Beverage Center:
After removing all interior and exterior
packaging materials, use a carpenter’s level to
level the Beverage Center from front-to-back.
Adjust the leveling legs in front, ½ bubble
higher, so that the door closes easily when left
halfway open.
Cleaning
• Wash any removable parts of the Beverage
Center 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.
Important Safeguards: Do not store food in
your Beverage Center as interior temperature
may not get cool enough to prevent spoilage.
In summer months or areas of high humidity,
the glass door may build up moisture. To
remove the moisture, wipe it away.
Handle Installation
1. Place handle over the two mounting studs
located at top of door.
2. Use hex head screw driver or Allen wrench
to tighten set screws from bottom to
secure handle to door.
