INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Refrigerator
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
Before connecting the refrigerator to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4
hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from improper
handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth. (Cleaning instruction on page 8)
Installing Your Refrigerator
This
appliance is designed to be free standing only, and should not be recessed or built-in.
Place your refrigerator on a floor that is strong enough to support the refrigerator when it is fully
loaded.
Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the refrigerator, which allows the proper
air ventilation. Adjust the feet to keep the refrigerator level.
Locate the refrigerator away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator,
etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical
consumption. Ambient temperature below 50°F or above 85°F will hinder the performance of this
appliance.
This unit is not designed for use in a garage or any other outside installation.
Avoid locating the refrigerator in moist areas.
Plug the refrigerator into dedicated, properly installed-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.
This unit is not designed to be installed in an RV or used with an
inverter.
