Before placing food in the fresh food or freezer compartments
Remove all packaging. Ensure that all transit clips are removed from the refrigerator. These are

small rubber stops located at the back of the shelves.
Allow the refrigerator and freezer to run empty for 2 – 3 hours to allow each compartment to
■ ■
cool to the appropriate temperature.
Clean the inside of the appliance with warm water and a little liquid detergent to remove
■ ■
manufacturing and transportation dust.
The appliance may have an odor on its initial operation, but this will go when the refrigerator

and freezer have cooled sufficiently.
