Proper Disposal of Your Old Appliance:

Old refrigerators can represent a suffocation hazard to children!

1. Remove the doors from your old refrigerator .

2. Leave shelves in place.

3. If an old refrigerator contains refrigerants, it must be recycled by a licensed service or disposal company.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

UNPACKING

Excessive Weight Hazard! * Use two or more people to move and install your appliance.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

ALLOW APPLIANCE TO SIT UPRIGHT FOR 24 HOURS BEFORE TURNING ON, TO ALLOW THE
COMPRESSOR LUBRICANT TO DRAIN.

1. Remove Packaging Materials

2. Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the appliance. Rub a small amount of liquid

dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Rinse with warm water and dry.

3. Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or

glue. These products can damage the surface of your appliance.

4. When Moving Your Appliance:

Your appliance is heavy. When moving the appliance for cleaning or service, be sure to protect the floor.
Always pull the appliance straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the appliance when trying to
move it, because floor damage can occur.

5. Clean Before Using

After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside of your appliance before using it. See the
cleaning instructions in “Appliance Care.”

6.If necessary level the refrigerator as needed for best operation.

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from appliances. Failure to do so can
result in death, explosion, or fire.

LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

IMPORTANT: Do not install the appliance near an oven, radiator, or other heat source,.

Check the strength of the floor before installing your appliance. It should hold the weight of the fully loaded
appliance. Allow at least 1” (2.5 cm) of airspace at the top and on both sides of the appliance and 1” (2.5 cm)
between the back of the appliance and the wall. If the appliance is going to be placed against a wall, leave
extra space on the hinge side so the door can open wider than its width.

BE SURE THAT YOU DO NOT BLOCK THE AIRFLOW UNDER THE APPLIANCE .

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CHOOSING THE RIGHT PLACE

Place the appliance in a dry and regularly ventilated place. Never place the appliance near heat emitting
devices (e.g. cooker, radiator, water heater or similar devices).

RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD

A 115 Volt, 60 Hz. AC only 15- or 20- amp fused or circuit breaker protected, grounded electrical supply is
required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your appliance be provided. Use outlets that
cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain. Connect this appliance to a 3 prong power supply socket outlet
(which has a ground terminal). If you only have a two prong outlet have it replaced by a qualified technician
with an outlet that meets the local codes. Required nominal voltage and frequency are indicated on the rating
plate. The connection to the power supply and grounding has to be made according to current standards and
regulations. The appliance resists temporary voltage tolerance from -15 to 10%.

IMPORTANT

Electrical Shock Hazard. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not
use a 2/3 adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, fire, or electrical shock.

A GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) is built into every line cord. Do not defeat or bypass this important
safety feature. The line cord supplied with this appliance is specially designed for outdoor use. Use only a
factory supplied replacement cord with a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) in the event the cord becomes
damaged.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

 The more airflow you can provide around an appliance, the less energy it will use.
 Keep doors or drawers open a minimum of time, and shut securely.

LEVELING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

1. Locate the two front leveling legs mounted into the underside of the appliance.

2. Adjust the front legs just enough to lift the cabinet up off of the floor.

3. Place a leveling tool on top of the appliance first side to side, then front to back. Turn leg counterclockwise

to raise a corner. Turn leg clockwise to lower a corner.

4. Once you have achieved side to side level, increase the front to rear adjustment to be slightly higher at the

front. This will ensure the door closes automatically once it is released. Increase the front to rear
adjustment until the door self-closes.

5. After appliance is fully loaded, recheck with level as in Step 3.

APPLIANCE USE

In order to ensure proper temperature, you need to permit proper airflow in the appliance. Do not block any
air vents. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be prevented, and temperature and moisture problems may
occur. Always position contents to allow airflow between shelves and products.

Allow the appliance to cool at least 6 to 8 hours before adding contents. Allow 24 hours for temperature to
stabilize.

NOTE: When the appliance is first started, the compressor will run constantly until the appliance is cooled, It
may take up to 6 or 8 hours (or longer), depending on ambient temperature and the number of times the
appliance door is opened. After the appliance is cooled, the compressor will turn on and off as needed to
keep the appliance at the proper temperature.

The outside of your appliance may feel warm. This is normal. The appliance’s design and main function is to
remove heat from products and air space inside the appliance. The heat is transferred to the room air,
making the outside of the appliance feel warm.

REFRIGERATOR SOUNDS

After your refrigerator has run for a while you may notice some normal operating sounds. Any hard surfaces
surrounding the unit, such as floors or cabinetry can make these sound louder. The following will explain
these sounds and their causes:

Our refrigerator uses a high efficiency compressor and fans to keep your food items at the desired
temperature while minimizing energy usage. The fan and compressor may therefore run for longer periods
than your old refrigerator. You may also notice a pulsating or high-pitched sound coming from the
compressor or fans as they adjust to optimize performance.

As refrigerant flows inside the cabinet, you may hear some rattling noises. This may also be caused by items
stored inside the cabinet.

After each cooling cycle, you may hear a gurgling sound caused be the refrigerant flowing inside your
refrigerator.

Each time the refrigerator starts and stops you may hear some clicking sounds.

You may hear condensation water dripping into the drip pan.
