including the following:
1) Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this use
and care guide.
2) This refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the installation instructions before it is used. See grounding instructions in the installation section.
3) Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always
grasp the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.
4) Repair or replace immediately, all electric service cords that have become
frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or
abrasion damage along its length, the plug or the connector end.
5) Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or before making any repairs.
Note: If for any reason this product requires service, we strongly recom-
mend that a certified technician performs the service.
6) Do not use any electrical device or any sharp instrument in defrosting your
refrigerator.
7) If your old refrigerator is not being used, we recommend that you remove
the doors and leave the shelves in place. This will reduce the possibility of
danger to children.
8) After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces in
the refrigerator compartment, particularly when hands are damp or wet.
Skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
9) This refrigerator should not be recessed or built-in an enclosed cabinet. It is
designed for freestanding installation only.
10) Do not operate your refrigerator in the presence of explosive fumes.

1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all
adhesive tape holding the refrigerator accessories inside and outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before powering on the refrigerator.
• To assure your refrigerator works at the maximum efficiency it was
designed for, you should install it in a location where there is proper
air circulation, plumbing and electrical connections.
• The following are recommended clearances around the refrigerator:
Sides ……………3/4 “(19mm)
Top ....................2” (50mm)
Back ..................2” (50mm)
• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps out-
let) with proper grounding to power the refrigerator.
• Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding
in order to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and
may result in shock hazard.

Electrical Requirements
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety haz-
ards under certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension
cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding
plug and a 3-slot outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating
of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the electrical
rating of the appliance.
• Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated
or heated e.g. garage etc. Your refrigerator was not designed to
operate in temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit.
• Select a suitable location for the refrigerator on a hard even surface
away from direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators, baseboard
heaters, cooking appliances etc.
1. Remove the top hinge cover by using a flathead screwdriver. Place
the head under the front edge of the cap and gently lift.
2. Loosen the top hinge screws using a Phillips head screw driver.
3. Adjust the door or put a spacer in between and tighten the screws.
4. Replace the top hinge cover by aligning the rear of the cover with
the rear of the hinge. Press firmly on the front of the cover until it
snaps in place.

Refrigerator Features And Use
General Features
Your refrigerator will automatically maintain the temperature level you select.
The temperature control dial has 7 settings plus off. 1 is the warmest. 7 is the
coldest. Turning the dial to 0 stops cooling in both the refrigeration and freezer
sections. At first, set the dial to 4 and allow 24 hours to pass before adjusting the
temperature to your needs.
(Note: If the refrigerator has been placed in a horizontal or tilted position for any
period of time wait 24 hours before plugging the unit in.)
Writing on Your Refrigerator Door
Your refrigerator comes with a surface on the front of the door that can be written
on using the included non-permanent markers. Simply write your notes and wipe
off using the eraser or other soft cloth. Erasing a note immediately after writing may
cause smearing of the ink. You will get better results erasing once the ink is slightly
dry. A mild household cleaner or soap and water solution can also be used if
smearing or ghosting of the ink should occur.
NOTE: Only non-permanent markers should be used on the surface of the
door. Replacement non-permanent markers can be purchased at stationary stores.
You should only write on the front of the door. Other surfaces of the unit such as the
door trim, cabinet and interior were not made to be written on.
Storing your Markers and Eraser
The markers may be stored in the compartment on top of the door trim. The
included eraser comes with a magnetic strip attached to the back of the eraser
which can be attached to top or side of cabinet.
Refrigerator Interior Shelves
To remove or replace a full-width slide-out shelf: (see fig. # 2)
1. Gently tilt the shelf up and slide forward until the shelf has been completely
removed.
2. To replace the shelf, gently slide the shelf back.
