For free standing 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. Even for
built-in installation, it is a must to keep ¼” (6.35mm) space on each side and at the top. Take care that
the air vent at the front of the appliance is never 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 44°F (7°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 appliance 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 a uthorized service center.

and turn it counterclockwise to unlock the door. To lock the door, do the reverse operation, making sure
the metal pin is engaged completely. Remove the key and put it in a secure place for safekeeping.
SHELVES
To prevent damaging the door gasket, make sure to have the door all the way open when pulling the
shelves out of the rail compartment.
NOTE:
If the unit is unplugged, or power is lost or turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before
restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the unit will not start.
When you use the unit for the first time or restart the unit after it has been shut off for a long
time, there could be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one
indicated on the LED readout. This is normal and is due to the length of the activation time.
There should not be a problem once the unit has been running for a few hours.
Interior Light
The unit is equipped with an interior LED light which can be turned ON or OFF by touching the
symbol.
For easy access to the stored content, you can pull
the shelf approximately halfway out of the rail
compartment. However this unit was designed with
a plastic post on each side of the shelf track to
prevent shelf contents from falling.
When removing the shelf from the inner rails, make
sure to remove all shelf contents first. Then move
the shelf to the position where the notches in the
shelf are exactly aligned with the plastic posts and
lift the shelf. In order to replace the shelf, repeat
this procedure in reverse.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING YOUR APPLIANCE
Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items, including shelves.
Wash the inside surfaces with a solution of warm water and baking soda (about 2 tablespoons of
baking soda to a quart of water).
Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning the area where the controls are located,
or any electrical parts.
Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a
clean soft cloth.
Use an approved stainless steel cleaner to clean the door and handle. Do not use steel wool or a
steel brush on the stainless steel.
CAUTION:
Failure to unplug the appliance during cleaning could result in electrical shock or other personal injury
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your
appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a
longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect the contents.
VACATION TIME
Short vacations: Leave the appliance operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn off
the appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the
door open slightly, blocking it open if necessary.
MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE
1. Remove all items.
2. Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
3. Turn the adjustable legs up to the base to avoid damage.
4. Tape the door shut.
5. Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also, protect the
outside of the appliance with a blanket or similar item.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room or outdoor location, away from heat
producing appliances and out of direct sunlight.
Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
Do not keep the door open any longer than necessary.
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the unit. Overloading the unit forces the
compressor to run longer.
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit. This cuts
down on frost build-up inside the unit.
Unit shelves and storage bins should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the unit less efficient.
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as
needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
