SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Read all of the instructions before using this appliance. When using this appliance, always exercise basic safety precautions, 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.
If for any reason this product requires service, we strongly
Note:
recommend 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. This will reduce the possibility of danger to children.
8) After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment, particularly when hands are damp or wet. Skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
9) Do not refreeze foods, which have been thawed completely. The United States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 reads: "…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold-below 40˚F".
"…Thawed ground meats, poultry, or fish that have any off-odor or off-color should not be refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream should be discarded. If the odor or color of any food is poor or questionable, discard it. The food may be dangerous to eat."
"…Even partial thawing and re-freezing reduce the eating quality of foods, particularly fruits, vegetables, and prepared foods. The eating quality of red meats is affected less than that of many other foods. Use refrozen foods as soon as possible, to save as much of its eating quality as you can."

Installing Your Refrigerator
Unpacking Your Refrigerator
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive tape holding the refrigerator accessories inside and outside. Slide out and remove plastic or foam guard used to secure the compressor from shipping damage due to vibration and shock.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed
materials before powering on the refrigerator.
Proper Air Circulation
• 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)

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.
Use of Extension Cords
• 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.

Defrosting Your Refrigerator
• For maximum energy efficiency, defrost freezer section whenever frost accumulates to a thickness of 1/4" or more on freezer walls. Note that frost tends to accumulate more during the summer months.
• To defrost freezer, remove food and ice cube tray from the freezer section. Place drip tray under freezer section and turn temperature control dial to OFF position. Defrosting may take a few hours. To speed up defrost time, keep the door open and place a bowl of warm water in the refrigerator.
• During the defrost cycle, water will accumulate in the drip tray. The drip tray may also need to be emptied during the defrost process. Do not leave unattended. (see Fig. 3)
• After defrosting, empty and wipe down the drip tray, as well as the interior of the refrigerator. You may now reset your refrigerator to the desired temperature and return food.
