IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Read all of the instructions before using this appliance. When using this
appliance, always exercise basic safety precautions, including the following:
1. Use this appliance only for its intended purpose, as described in this User's
Manual.
2. This refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the Installation
instructions before it is used. See Grounding Instructions in the Installation
section.
3. Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grasp
the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.
4. Repair or replace immediately all electrical service cords that have become
frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or
abrasion damage along its length or at the plug or connector end.
5. Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or making any repairs.
NOTE: If for any reason this product requires service, we strongly
recommend that a certified technician perform the service.
6. Do not use any electrical device or any sharp instrument in defrosting your
refrigerator.
7. If your old refrigerator is not being used, we recommend that you remove the
doors and leave the shelves in place. This will reduce the possibility of
danger to children.
8. After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces in the
freezer compartment, particularly when hands are damp or wet. Skin may
adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
9. Do not refreeze foods which have been thawed completely. The United
States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 reads:
"...You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if they still contain
ice crystals or if they are still cold – below 40°F".
"...Thawed ground meats, poultry or fish that have any off-odor or off-color
should not be refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream should
be discarded. If the odor or color of any food is poor or questionable, discard
it. The food may be dangerous to eat."
"...Even partial thawing and re-freezing reduce the eating quality of foods,
particularly fruits, vegetables and prepared foods. The eating quality of red
meats is affected less than that of many other foods. Use refrozen foods as
soon as possible, to save as much of their eating quality as you can."
10. This refrigerator should not be recessed or built into an enclosed cabinet. It is
designed for freestanding installation only.
11. Do not operate your refrigerator in the presence of explosive fumes.

DANGER!
Risk of child entrapment! 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.

Installation
Unpacking Your Refrigerator
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive
tape holding the refrigerator accessories inside and out. Slide out and remove
plastic or foam guard used to secure the compressor from shipping damage
due to vibration and shock.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before
powering on the refrigerator.
Adjusting Your Refrigerator
Leveling Your Refrigerator:
Your refrigerator has two leveling legs which are located in the front corners
of the appliance. After properly placing your refrigerator in its final position,
you can level the refrigerator.
Leveling legs can be adjusted by turning them counterclockwise to raise the
refrigerator or by turning them clockwise to lower it. The refrigerator door
will close more easily when the leveling legs are raised.
Proper Air Circulation
To ensure that your refrigerator works at the maximum efficiency it was
designed for, you should install it in a location where there are proper air
circulation, plumbing and electrical connections.
The following are recommended clearances around the refrigerator:
Sides .................. 3/4" (19mm)
Top ....................1" (25mm)
Back ...................1" (25mm)
Electrical Requirements
Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (115V AC, 60Hz, 15 amps) with
proper grounding to power the refrigerator.
Avoid the use of three-prong adapters or cutting off the third grounding
prong in order to accommodate a two-prong outlet. This is a dangerous
practice since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and may
result in shock hazard.
Installation Limitations
Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated or
heated, e.g., your garage, etc. Your refrigerator was not designed to
operate in temperature settings below 55° Fahrenheit.
