Ventilation

There is need of good ventilation around the refrigerator for dissipation of
heat, high efficiency of refrigeration and low power consumption. For this
purpose, following clearance is needed for proper air circulation:

Back: 4” (100mm) from the wall
Sides: 8” (200mm)
Top: 12” (300mm)

• A clear space should be left to open the door to 160º

Protection from Moisture

Avoid placing unit where heavy moisture is present, this is to minimize
possibility of metal parts rusting. Never spray water onto the unit.
Never spray water directly onto the unit – which may damage the insulation.

Protection from Heat

Keep unit away from any heat source and direct sunlight.

Unit should be placed on a flat and solid ground, which can support the
refrigerator when fully loaded. Adjust the leveling legs so the unit is firmly
positioned on the floor. Do not place unit near anything that may echo.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!

Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described.

Power Supply

This unit is applied with power supply of single phase alternating
current of 115V~, 60Hz. If fluctuation of voltage is so large that
the voltage exceeds the above scope, it is suggested to apply
A.C. Automatic voltage regulator to the refrigerator. This
appliance is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which
mates with a standard 3-prong wall outlet. DO NOT, UNDER
ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD
(GROUND) PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD. If you have
only a 2-prong wall outlet, it is your responsibility to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

Power Cord

Be sure the cord is not folded into coil during operation. Keep
cord away from the compressor (located at the back of the unit),
due to its high surface temperature when operating. We strongly
suggest against the use of an extension cord. However, if one
must be used, the extension cord must be UL-listed, with
grounding type plug and electrical rating matching that of the
unit. Contact the manufacturer immediately should the cord be
frayed or damaged.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the
following:

• Refrigerator should be installed and positioned according to the Installation instructions.

• Do not allow young children to climb or play with the refrigerator.
