Installing Your Refrigerator
Unpacking Your Refrigerator
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all
adhesive tape holding the refrigerator accessories inside and outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materi-
als before powering on the refrigerator.
Proper Air Circulation
• To assure your refrigerator works at the maximum efficiency it was
designed for, 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 Requirements
• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps out-
let) with proper grounding to power the refrigerator.
• 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 prac-
tice since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and
may result in shock hazard.

English
Use of Extension Cord
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety haz-
ards 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.
Install Limitations
• Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated
or heated e.g. garage etc. Your refrigerator was not designed to
operate in temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit.
• Select a suitable location for the refrigerator on a hard even surface
away from direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators, baseboard
heaters, cooking appliances etc.
Door Alignment (see fig. #1)
1. Remove the top hinge cover by using a flathead screwdriver. Place
the head under the front edge of the cap and gently lift.
2. Loosen the top hinge screws using a Phillips head screw driver.
3. Adjust the door or put a spacer in between and tighten the screws.
4. Replace the top hinge cover by aligning the rear of the cover with the
rear of the hinge. Press firmly on the front of the cover until it snaps
in place.

Refrigerator Features And Use
General Features
Your refrigerator will automatically maintain the temperature level you select. The
temperature control dial has 7 settings plus off. 1 is the warmest. 7 is the coldest.
Turning the dial to 0 stops cooling in both the refrigeration and freezer sections.
At first, set the dial to 4 and allow 24 hours to pass before adjusting the temper-
ature to your needs.
(Note: If the refrigerator has been placed in a horizontal or tilted position for
any period of time wait 24 hours before plugging the unit in.)
Refrigerator Interior Shelves
To remove or replace a full-width slide-out shelf: (see fig. # 2)
1. Gently tilt the shelf up and slide forward until the shelf has been completely
removed.
2. To replace the shelf, gently slide the shelf back.

Defrosting Your Refrigerator (see fig. # 3)
• For maximum energy efficiency, defrost freezer section whenever frost
accumulates to a thickness of 1/4" or more on freezer walls. Note that
frost tends to accumulate more during the summer months.
• To defrost freezer, remove food and ice cube tray from the freezer
section. Your model requires you to place the drip tray under the
freezer section (see Fig. 3). To defrost turn the temperature control
dial to the 0 position. Defrosting may take a few hours. To speed up
defrost time, keep the door open and place a bowl of warm water in
the refrigerator.
• During the defrost cycle, water will accumulate in the drip tray. The
drip tray may also need to be emptied during the defrost process. Do
not leave unattended.
• After defrosting, empty and wipe down the drip tray, as well as the
interior of the refrigerator. You may now reset your refrigerator to the
desired temperature and return food.
fig. 3
Normal Operating Sounds You May Hear
• Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the result of
the refrigerant circulating through the cooling coils.
• The thermostat control will click when it cycles on and off.

Power Interruptions
• Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms
or other causes. Remove the power cord from AC outlet when a
power outage occurs. When power has been restored, replug power
cord to AC outlet. If outage is for a prolonged period, inspect and
discard spoiled or thawed food in freezer. Clean freezer before
reusing.
Vacation and Moving Care
• For long vacations or absences, empty food from refrigerator, move
the temperature DIAL to the OFF position and clean the door gaskets
according to "General cleaning" section. Prop doors open, so air can
circulate inside. When moving always move the refrigerator vertically.
Do not move with the unit lying down. Possible damage to the sealed
system could occur.
