Electrical Requirement
• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet)
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.
• 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. Any floor unevenness should be
corrected with the leveling legs located on the front bottom corners of
the refrigerator.

• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards
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.

Fresh Food
• When storing fresh food, which is not prepackaged, be sure to wrap or
store food in airtight and moisture proof material unless otherwise
noted. This will ensure proper shelf life and prevent the transfer of
odors and tastes.
• Wipe containers before storing to avoid needless spills.
• Eggs should be stored in an upright position in their original carton to
maximize shelf life.
• Fruit should be washed and dried then stored in a crisper set for low
humidity. If you do not have humidity controlled crispers place the items
in sealed plastic bags before storing in the crisper.
• Vegetables with skins should be stored in plastic bags or containers and
stored in crisper with low humidity setting.
• Leafy vegetables should be washed and drained and then stored in
plastic bags or containers in crisper with high humidity setting.
• Hot food should be allowed to cool before storing in the refrigeration.
This will prevent unnecessary energy use.
• Fresh seafood should be used the same day as purchased.
• When storing meats in the fresh food section, keep in the original
packaging or rewrap as necessary. Follow the suggestions below for
safe storage:
• Chicken 1-2 Days
• Ground Beef 1-2 Days
• Cold Cuts 3-5 Days
• Steaks/Roasts 3-5 Days
• Smoked/Cured Meats 7-10 Days
• All others 1-2 Days
If longer periods of storage are required, store immediately in the freezer
section.
