WARNING
WARNING - Help Prevent Tragedies
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of
the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still
dangerous - even if they sit out for "just a few hours".
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please
follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
If the appliance was shipped, handled, or stored in other
than an upright position for any period of time, allow the appliance to sit upright for a period of at least 24 hours before
plugging in. This will assure oil returns to the compressor.
Plugging the appliance in immediately may cause damage
to internal parts.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or
freezer:
• Take off the doors or remove the drawers.
• Leave the shelves in place so children may not
easily climb inside.

I NSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE
Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of your
appliance. We recommend a location where the unit will
be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To
ensure your product performs to specifi cations, the recom-
mended installation location temperature range is from 55
to 100°F (13 to 38°C).
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the appliance. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions.
Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around
the appliance as long as the front grille remains unobstructed. Overlay door models with articulated hinges are
intended for built-in applications only.
!
CAUTION
Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the
front grille allow air to fl ow through the condenser heat ex-
changer. Restrictions to this air fl ow will result in increased
energy usage and loss of cooling capacity. For this reason
it is important this area not be obstructed and the grille
openings kept clean. Viking Range,LLC does not recommend the use of a custom made grille as air fl ow may be
restricted. (See Figure 2).

If necessary to gain clearance inside the rough-in opening a hole can be cut
through the adjacent cabinet and the power cord routed through this hole to a
power outlet. Another way to increase the available opening depth is to recess the
power outlet into the rear wall to gain the thickness of the power cord plug. Not
all recessed outlet boxes will work for this application as they are too narrow, but
a recessed outlet box equivalent to Arlington #DVFR1W is recommended for this
application, (see Figure 8).

CARE AND CLEANING AND ENERGY SAVING TIPS
Front Grille
Be sure that nothing obstructs the required air fl ow open-
ings in front of the cabinet. At least once or twice a year,
brush or vacuum lint and dirt from the front grille area (see
page 4).
!
CAUTION
SHOCK HAZARD: Disconnect electrical power from the
appliance before cleaning with soap and water.
Cabinet
The painted cabinet can be washed with either a mild soap
and water and thoroughly rinsed with clear water. NEVER
use abrasive scouring cleaners.
Interior
Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. Do
NOT use an abrasive cleaner, solvent, polish cleaner or
undiluted detergent.
Care of Appliance
1. Avoid leaning on the door, you may bend the door
hinges or tip the appliance.
2. Exercise caution when sweeping, vacuuming or mopping near the front of the appliance. Damage to the
grille can occur.
3. Periodically clean the interior of the appliance as
needed.
4. Periodically check and/or clean the front grille as
needed.
In the Event of a Power Failure
If a power failure occurs, try to correct it as soon as possible. Minimize the number of door openings while the
power is off so as not to adversely affect the appliance's
temperature.
The following suggestions will minimize the
cost of operating your refrigeration appliance.
1. Do not install your appliance next to a hot appliance
(cooker, dishwasher, etc.), heating air duct, or other
heat sources.
2. Install product out of direct sunlight.
3. Ensure the front grille vents at front of appliance beneath door are not obstructed and kept clean to allow
ventilation for the refrigeration system to expel heat.
4. Plug your appliance into a dedicated power circuit. (Not
shared with other appliances).
5. When initially loading your new product, or whenever
large quantities of warm contents are placed within
refrigerated storage compartment, minimize door
openings for the next 12 hours to allow contents to pull
down to compartment set temperature.
6. Maintaining a relatively full storage compartment will
require less appliance run time than an empty compartment.
7. Ensure door closing is not obstructed by contents
stored in your appliance.
8. Allow hot items to reach room temperature before placing in product.
9. Minimize door openings and duration of door openings.
10. Use the warmest temperature control set temperature
that meets your personal preference and provides the
proper storage for your stored contents.
11. When on vacation or away from home for extended pe-
riods, set the appliance to warmest acceptable tem perature for the stored contents.
12. Set the control to the “off” position if cleaning the
appliance requires the door to be open for an extended
period of time.
13. For wine storage products:
When serving temperatures are not required,
return the compartment(s) set temperature to the
ideal red and white wine long term storage tem-
perature of 13°C / 55°F.
Light assembly replacement
All models use LED lamps to illuminate the interior of the
appliance. This component is very reliable, but should one
fail, contact a qualifi ed service technician for replacement
of the LED.

TROUBLESHOOTING

the appliance until the main electrical power has been
disconnected. Turning the appliance control "OFF"
does not remove electrical power from the unit's wiring.
• Replace all parts and panels before operating.

page 8)

• Fan hitting tube obstruction.
• Power cord not plugged in.
• No power at outlet.
In the unlikely event you lose cooling in your unit, do not
unplug the product from the electric supply, but do call
a qualifi ed service technician immediately. It is possible
that the loss of cooling capacity is a result of excessive
frost build-up on the evaporator cooling coil. In this case,
removing power to the unit will result in the melting of this
excessive quantity of ice, which could generate melt water
that exceeds the capacity of the defrost drain system and
could result in water damage to your home. The end-user
will be ultimately responsible for any water damage caused
by prematurely turning the unit off without appropriately
managing the excess water run-off.
