IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Before the refrigerator/freezer is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as described
in this manual, so read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury
when using this appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet, do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adaptor
and do not use an extension cord.
It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your refrigerator, be provided. Use
receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
Never clean refrigerator parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire hazard
or explosion. Also, do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in
the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, unplug the refrigerator or
disconnect power. Failure to do so can result in electrical shock or death.
Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid hazard.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your refrigerator unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
DANGER: Risk of child entrapment!
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
appliances are still dangerous, even if they will "just sit in the garage a few days."
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer, take off the doors. Leave the
shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
Never allow children to operate, play with or crawl inside the refrigerator.
Use two or more people to move and install the refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in
back or other injury. When moving the appliance, do not tilt it beyond 45° from the upright
position.
To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, the front of the unit must be completely
unobstructed. Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above 60°F (16°C) and
below 90°F (32°C). This unit must be installed in an area protected from the elements
such as wind, rain, water spray or drips.

The refrigerator should not be located next to ovens, grills or other sources of high heat.
The refrigerator must be installed with an electrical connection in accordance with state and
local codes. A standard electrical supply (115-120V AC only, 60 Hz), properly grounded in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances is required.
If there is a sudden power outage, allow at least 5 minutes before re-powering the unit, in
order to protect the compressor.
Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord of the refrigerator.
The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amps.
It is important for the refrigerator to be leveled in order to work properly. You may need to
make several adjustments to level it.
Do not overfill, to allow for free circulation of air.
To avoid damaging your fingers, do not touch frozen food with wet hands.
If the appliance will not be used for a long time, it should be turned off.
Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process.
Do not damage the refrigerant coils.
Do not use electric appliances inside the food storage compartments of appliance, unless
they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners
may damage or discolor the interior.
This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without
supervision.
This appliance is intended for household use, and should not be used for any other
purpose.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
WARNING----Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting
process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
WARNING----Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
WARNING---- Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments of
appliance, unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before using your appliance
a. Remove the exterior and interior packing, including the foam base and all adhesive tape.
To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the area briskly with your thumb. Tape or
glue residue can also be easily removed by rubbing a small amount of liquid dish soap
over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.
b. Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluid or abrasive cleaners to
remove tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your refrigerator.
c. When moving the appliance, do not tilt it more than 45° from the upright position.
d. Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for
approximately 30 minutes. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling
system from handling during transportation.
e. Clean the interior surfaces with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

2. Installing your appliance
WARNING: Keep flammable materials and vapors such as gasoline away from the
refrigerator.
Place your appliance in a well-ventilated area on a floor that is strong enough to support
it when fully loaded. To level your appliance, adjust the leg at the front of the appliance.
To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, leave not less that 12” of space at the
top and 4" on both sides and the back.
If you are installing the refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave sufficient space on the
hinge side to allow for the door to swing open at least 120°.
Locate the appliance away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater,
radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight can affect the refrigerator's coating and heat sources can
increase electrical consumption. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also cause
the appliance to perform improperly.
Avoid locating the appliance in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air can promote
rusting and will cause frost to form quickly on the evaporator, requiring more frequent
defrosting of the appliance.
Never place any weight on the electrical cord.
