 Use two or more people to move and install 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). T his 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 ordinance s, 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.
 Although the unit has been tested at the factory, due to long-term transit and storage, the first batch

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.

 CAUTION

perishable food, medicine or other medical products.

 Place your Beverage Merchandiser on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.

To level the unit, adjust the front leveling legs.

 For freestanding installation, 5 inches (127mm) of space between the back and sides of the unit are

suggested, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser for energy
saving. Even for built-in installation, it is a must to keep ¼” (6.35mm) space on each side and at the
top to ensure proper service access and ventilation. And the air vent at the front of the appliance must
never be covered or blocked in any way.

 NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the appliance near an oven, radiator or other heating

source. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical
consumption. Don’t install in a location where the temperature will fall below 60°F (16°C). For best
performance, do not install the appliance behind a cabinet door or block the base grille.

 Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
 Plug the Beverage Merchandiser into an exclusive, properly grounded wall outlet. Do not under any

circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning
power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized service
center.
