LEVELING
•
Use the two leveling screws to level the refrigerator. Insert and adjust them so
that they rest firmly on the floor.
•
The front of the refrigerator should rest a little higher than the rear which should
lean slightly backward, thereby facilitating the automatic closing of the doors and
preventing temperature loss.
INSTALLATION
Before inserting the plug into the AC outlet, clean the interior of your refrigerator using a
cloth or soft sponge and mild soap, or a solution of bicarbonate of soda and water
For an effective installation, the following should be considered:
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS OF THE ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION:
•
Characteristics: 120V ~, 60 Hz for residential use. Ideally equipped with a main
switch and separate balanced circuits, protected by fuses and/or a circuit breaker
of 15 to 20 amperes Max.
•
Your refrigerator comes equipped with an AC power cord, a polarized Y-type cable,
or integrated grounding.
Under no circumstances should the grounding be
removed to connect an adapter plug; the grounding cannot be cut and/or
replaced by a 2-prong plug.
•
If your electrical installation is not equipped with this kind of AC outlet, obtain one,
and have it installed by a qualified electrician.
Any personal accidents and/or
material damage caused by the product resulting from failure to do this will
be the full responsibility of the client.
Read the instructions printed in red ink
on the label attached to the power cable.
•
Connect your refrigerator to the closest AC outlet. Avoid using extension cords
and/or joining cables that are unsuitable for the running of your refrigerator. If for
any reason you need to use an extension cord, consult a qualified electrician so
that they can advise you on the type of cord that can be used for maximum safety.
•
Use of extension cords; because of potential hazards under certain conditions, we
strongly recommend against the use of an extension cord. However, if you still
elect to use an extension cord, it is necessary that it be UL listed 3-wire grounding
type plug
and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord is 15 amperes
(minimum) and 120 volts.
•
Do not connect other electrical appliances to the refrigerator AC outlet while the unit
is in use. By doing this you will avoid power surges and overheating of your
refrigerator.
•
Never connect another electrical appliance to the same plug that you are using for
your refrigerator.
•
To connect and disconnect your refrigerator, grip the plug firmly, and pull straight
from the AC outlet.
Never pull the electrical cord.
