WARNING
Explosion and Fire Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from

appliance.
Failure to do so, can result in death, explosion or fire.
•
This refrigerator is designed to be freestanding only, and should not be
recessed or built-in.
• Place your refrigerator on a floor that is level and strong enough to
support the refrigerator when it is fully loaded.
• Place your refrigerator where there is access to the required electrical
connection. See “Electrical Requirements.”
• Position the refrigerator in a location away from direct sunlight, because
it may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase
electrical consumption. To ensure optimal performance, install in areas
with an ambient temperature between 41°F (5°C) and 109°F (42.8°C).
NOTES:
– Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may
increase electrical consumption.
– Extremely cold temperatures may also prevent the refrigerator from
performing properly.
• Avoid locating the refrigerator in areas with high humidity.
• Adequate air circulation is required for efficient operation. Maintain the
recommended clearance to ensure adequate air circulation.

time should not be exceeded.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Safety
Requirements
Operating
Parts and
Features
1. Plug in your refrigerator. Wait for 30 minutes, and then open the
refrigerator door to determine if the refrigerator is working properly.
2. Place frozen food into the refrigerator as quickly as possible after
purchase. If there are instructions on the package, carefully follow
these instructions regarding storage times.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
Allow hot foods to cool to room temperature before placing them in
•
the refrigerator. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality or spoil.
Overloading the refrigerator forces the compressor to run longer.
•
Wrap foods properly and wipe containers dry before placing them in
•
the refrigerator. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the refrigerator.
Do not line refrigerator storage shelves with aluminum foil, wax paper
•
or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the
refrigerator less efficient.
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended
•
searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and then
close the door as soon as possible.
Do NOT add a large amount of unfrozen food to the refrigerator at one
•
time. This will lower the cooling efficiency of the refrigerator.
