This Use & Care Guide provides general
operating instructions for your model. Use
the appliance only as instructed in this
Use & Care Guide. Before starting the ap-
pliance, follow these important first steps.
Location
Choose a place that is near a grounded
electrical outlet. Do Not use an extension
cord or an adapter plug.
For the most efficient operation, the
appliance should be located where
surrounding temperatures will not exceed
110°F (43°C). Temperatures of 32°F (0°C)
and below will NOT affect operation.
Additional compressor heaters are not
recommended.
If possible, place the appliance out of
direct sunlight and away from the range,
dishwasher or other heat sources.
Allow space around the unit for good air
circulation. Leave a 4 inch (101 mm) space on
all sides of the unit for adequate circulation.

INSTALLATION
CAUTION
To allow door to close and seal
properly, DO NOT let food packages
extend past the front of shelves.
Leveling
Rest all bottom corners firmly on a solid
floor. The floor must be strong enough to
support a fully loaded appliance.
To Level the Appliance:
Adjust the
bottom feet by turning counterclockwise
to lengthen and clockwise to shorten. Use
a carpenter’s level to level the appliance
from front to back. Adjust the leveling
feet in front,
½
bubble higher, so the door
closes easily.
NOTE
The exterior walls of the unit may
become quite warm as the compressor
works to transfer heat from the inside.
Temperatures as much as 30° F warmer
than room temperature can be expect-
ed. For this reason it is particularly
important in hotter climates to allow
enough space for air circulation around
your appliance.
NOTE
It is
VERY IMPORTANT
for your unit to
be level in order to function properly.
If the appliance is not leveled during
installation, the door may be misaligned
and not close or seal properly, causing
cooling, frost or moisture problems.
