Unpacking Your Refrigerator
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive
tape holding the accessories inside and outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before
powering on.
Proper Air Circulation
• To assure your refrigerator works at maximum efficiency, you should install it in
a location where there is proper air circulation, plumbing and electrical
connections.
• The following are recommended clearances around the refrigerator:
Sides ....................... 3/4" (19mm)
Top ......................... 2" (50mm)
Back ....................... 2" (50mm)
Electrical Requirement
• Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet) with
proper grounding to power the unit.
• Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding in order
to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it
provides no effective grounding for the unit and may result in shock hazard.
Use of Extension Cord
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that will
accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord must be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
Installion Limitations
• Do not install in any location that is not properly insulated or heated (e.g.
garage etc.). Your unit was not designed to operate in temperature settings
below 55˚ Fahrenheit.
• Select a suitable location on a hard, even surface away from direct sunlight or
heat source (e.g. radiators, baseboard heaters, cooking appliances etc.). Any
floor unevenness should be corrected.
