PRECAUTIONS

Placement

Make sure the following placement requirements are adhered to in order to ensure that the refrigerator will
work properly. The back of the refrigerator needs to be positioned at least 5 inches from the wall. Each of
the sides of the refrigerator requires at least 5 inches of distance from the surrounding walls. The
refrigerator requires at least 10 inches of clearance above it. Finally, the refrigerator requires enough
clearance so the door can open up fully (up to 160 degrees).

IMPORTANT: This refrigerator is NOT designed for recessed installation.

Power Supply

WARNING – Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. If it is necessary to
use an extension cord, although it is NOT RECOMMENDED, use only an extension cord that has a 3-blade
grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the refrigerator. The marked rating of the
extension cord should be AC 115-120V, 10A or more. If a grounding adapter is used, make sure the
receptacle box is fully grounded.

Power Cord

If the refrigerator’s power cord is damaged, have it replaced by a qualified technician. Make sure that the
power cord is not placed in a location where it can be stepped on or become damaged. The powe r cord
should be kept away from the compressor at the back of the refrigerator because of the high temperature

emitted from the compressor during operation. Failing to do so may damage the power cord insulation and
in turn cause electricity leakage.

Protection from Moisture

Avoid placing the refrigerator in a very humid environment. This will minimize the risk of corrosion of
certain components. Do not spray / pour water directly onto the refrigerator.

Protection from Heat

The refrigerator should be far away from any heat source or direct sunshine.

Stable Footing

The floor / surface on which the refrigerator will be placed must be completely even and solid. It should not
be placed on any soft materials such as foam, plastic etc. If the refrigerator does not appear to be level,
adjust the leveling legs accordingly.

Protection from Dangerous Materials / Liquids

It is inadvisable to place the refrigerator near any volatile and / or combustible materials and / or liquids
such as gasoline, lacquer and banana oil. The above-mentioned materials / liquids should also not be stored
inside the refrigerator.

Transporting the Refrigerator

When moving or fixing the refrigerator, (the refrigerator should only be fixed by a qualified service
technician. Call 1-800-287-4871 to find the closest service centre near you) do not tilt it, at any ti me, at an
angle of 45 degrees or more. Never turn the refrigerator upside down at any time, for any reason.

Other Precautions

• If you have bought this refrigerator to replace and old one equipped with a lock that cannot be

opened from the inside, make sure the lock is broken. This will make it impossible for children to
lock themselves inside the refrigerator

• Do not touch cold surface on refrigerator while it’s operating, especially not with wet hands

because the skin may stick to the cold surfaces

• Do not freeze liquids because they expand and could cause the containers in which they are stored

(i.e. glass) to explode because of the pressure

• Do not defrost the freezer with other electrical devices (i.e. hair dryer) and never scrape the ice or

frost layer with sharp objects
