INSTALLATION
POWER SUPPLY
This refrigerator is equipped with a 115V/60Hz single phase motor. If the power supply to the
refrigerator is subject to large fluctuations, it is strongly advised to utilize a wall-mounted power
conditioner surge protection device to prevent damage to the electronic components and motor.
The power plug is a standard grounded three-prong non-polarized flush mount, which allows for
easier connection to power outlets.
Power plug must be connected to the outlet directly, and never to an extension cord.
POWER CORD
Never shorten or lengthen the power cord. Do not fold or coil the power cord.
IMPORTANT
- Never place the excess length of power cord into the compressor enclosure in the
back of the refrigerator. This action creates a dangerous heat build-up which can melt the cord,
cause an electrical hazard and may potentially cause a fire.
Touching the power cord to the compressor at the back of the refrigerator during operation can
create an electrical hazard and damage the compressor.
If the power cord is damaged, it must immediately be replaced by a trained service provider, as
special tools are required.
CLEAN BEFORE USE
To remove any manufacturing dust and residual odors, wipe the refrigerator inside and out with a
damp cloth and a solution of baking soda and warm water (2 tbsp. baking soda to 1 qt. water).
Wipe away any residual baking soda with a clean moist cloth. Allow to dry before operating.
Periodically clean the refrigerator with a sponge or cloth moistened with mild soapy water, or baking
soda and water.
PROTECT FROM MOISTURE
Heavy moisture in the environment can cause degradation to the insulation, as well as rust to the
cabinet, compressor and/or power supply.
Do not spray the refrigerator with water.
PROTECT FROM HEAT
Place the refrigerator away from heat source or direct sun.
The hotter the operating environment, the harder the compressor has to work to keep the contents
cold, which will shorten the operating life.
Do not cover the refrigerator with tarps or other items while operating, as this may cause
overheating.
IMPORTANT:
Do not cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord.
IMPORTANT:
Never use with an extension cord.
