•If the cooler is not properly ventilated, the compressor will use more power. Make sure that you leave space on all sides:

•Top: .2 in. (.5 cm)

•Sides: .2 in. (.5 cm)

•Back: .8 in. (2.0 cm)

At least 34.5 in. (87.6 cm)

At least 24.2 in. (61.5 cm)

At least 23.8 in. (60.5 cm)

23.4 in.

(59.5 cm)

34.3 in.

(87.0 cm)

23.4 in. (59.5 cm)

•Leave enough space for the door to open at least 90 degrees.

•Place the cooler away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). If the cooler has to be put next to a heat source, use a suitable insulation board. Ambient temperatures below 50°F (10°C) or above 85°F (29.4°C) will hinder the performance of this cooler. This cooler is not designed for use in a garage or any other outside location.

•Avoid placing the cooler in moist areas.

•This unit is not designed to be installed in an RV or used with an inverter.

•Do not stack your cooler.

•For your cooler to operate normally, avoid placing it in areas with high magnetic fields or high humidity.

•Do not block the air vent on the front of your cooler.

Leveling your cooler

•It is very important for the cooler to be level in order to function properly. If the cooler is not leveled during installation, the door may not close or seal properly, causing cooling, frost, or moisture problems.

•To level your cooler, you may either turn the feet clockwise to raise the cooler or turn it counter-clockwise to lower it. The front feet should be adjusted slightly higher than the back feet.
