IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Before the appliance is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as
described in this manual, so read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of fire,
electrical shock or injury when using the appliance, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet, do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adapter, and do
not use an extension cord.
Replace all panels before operating.
It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your appliance be provided. Use receptacles
that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
And do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line of the unit is
disconnected.
3
Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
Unplug the appliance or disconnect power before cleaning or servicing. Failure to do so can result in
electrical shock or death.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your appliance unless it is specifically recommended in
this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
FOLLOW
Use two or more people to move and install the appliance. Failure to do so can result in back or other
injury.
To ensure proper ventilation for your appliance, the front of the unit must be completely unobstructed.
Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above 60°F (16°C) and below 90°F (32°C). This unit
must be installed in an area protected from the elements, such as wind, rain, water spray or drips.
The appliance should not be located next to ovens, grills or other sources of high heat.
The appliance must be installed with all electrical, water and drain connections in accordance with
state and local codes. A standard electrical supply (115 V AC only, 60 Hz), properly grounded in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.
Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord of the appliance.
The size of the fuse (or circuit breaker) should be 15 amperes.
It is important that the appliance be leveled in order to work properly. You may need to make several
adjustments to level it.
All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.
Make certain that the pipes are not pinched, kinked or damaged during installation.
Check for leaks after connection.
Never allow children to operate, play with or crawl inside the appliance.
Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners may damage
or discolor the interior.

and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful closing doors when children are in the area.
WARNING CALLOUTS BELOW ONLY WHEN APPLICABLE TO YOUR MODEL
Risk of child entrapment!
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned appliances are
still dangerous, even if they will “just sit in the garage a few days”.
Before discarding your old refrigerator:
Take off the doors.
Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is meant for free-standing installation; it should not be built-in.
Do not put heavy items on top of the unit.
Do not store or install the appliance outdoors.
This appliance is designed for the storage and display of frozen items
Do not use it to store medicine or other medical products.
Moving and Installing Your Appliance
When transporting, keep the unit vertical as much as possible. The angle between the vertical and the
side of the unit should never exceed 40° since this could affect the compressor and result in abnormal
operation.
After unpacking the unit, remove the packing materials and place the unit on a level and sturdy floor
near a power socket.
Leave at least 4" of space between the back of the unit and the wall for ventilation. Leave space
enough to allow the door to swing open 160°.
Keep the unit away from heat sources and avoid direct sunlight.
Never place the unit in a location with high humidity or where water can reach it.
It is recommended that you install the appliance in a place where the ambient temperature is between
72º and 78ºF (23º-26ºC). If the ambient temperature is above or below the recommended
temperatures, the performance of the unit may be affected. For example, placing your unit in extreme
cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to fluctuate.
Electrical Connection
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is
damaged, have it replaced by a qualified electrician or an authorized service center.
Never ground the unit through a gas pipe, tap water pipe or the grounded wire of a single-phase
power supply.
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped
with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three-prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of
electrical shock.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord supplied. For
personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.
This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~ 60Hz three-prong grounded electrical outlet. Have
the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or
dangling.
The appliance should always be plugged into an exclusive, properly grounded wall outlet which has a
voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also
prevents overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheating. Never unplug

the appliance by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the
receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end.
When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.
Extension Cord
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do not
use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord it is absolutely
necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding
type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.
OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE

metal pin is engaged completely. Remove the key and put it in a secure place for safekeeping, out of the
reach of children.
Shelves
There are a total of seven (7) adjustable shelves. To change the position of a shelf, first remove all shelf
contents. Then tap the shelf from below at each of the four corners to free it from the brackets holding it
in place. Remove the brackets from the slotted vertical posts and reset them at the height you desire for
the new shelf position. Snap the shelf onto the four brackets and replace the shelf contents.
Normal Phenomena
You may notice the following phenomena happening with your appliance. They are normal and should
not be a cause for alarm.
You may hear a sound like water flowing. This is refrigerant flowing through the pipes.
The compressor, condenser or the region of the unit near the door feel warm, or even hot.
Under conditions of high humidity, moisture forms on the outer cabinet or door. This can be wiped
away with a clean, soft, dry cloth.
