How to Use

WARNING:
Risk of fire or explosion due to puncture of
refrigerant tubing (flammable refrigerant used).
Handle with care when moving refrigerator to avoid
damaging the tubing or increasing the risk of a leak.
INSTALLATION
1. Select a well-ventilated location for the refrigerator on a hard, even surface,
away from direct sunlight, heat sources and moisture. DO NOT install near gas,
alcohol, lacquer or other flammable products.
2. DO NOT install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated or
heated. This refrigerator was not designed to operate in temperature settings
below 55˚ F.
3. Always install the refrigerator in a location where there is proper air circulation
and an electrical outlet. We recommend 4" clearance from all walls, cabinets
or other appliances and 8" clearance on top.
4. Your refrigerator has 2 leveling legs which are located in the front bottom
corners of the appliance. After properly placing the refrigerator in its final
position, level the refrigerator by turning the legs counterclockwise to raise
the refrigerator or clockwise to lower it. (The refrigerator door will swing
closed easier when the leveling legs are extended.)
Note:
If the appliance has been placed in a horizontal or tilted position (more
than 45°) for any period of time, wait 24 hours before plugging in.
OPERATION
1. Plug the cord into an electrical outlet.
2. This appliance has 1 temperature control dial for both the freezer and the
refrigerator compartments. Temperature will automatically be maintained per
the setting you select. 0 is OFF, 1 is the warmest, 4 is the coldest. Begin by
setting the dial to 3 and allow 24 hours to pass before adjusting the
temperature, as needed.
3. Allow the refrigerator to cool down 2–3 hours before storing food in it.
4. The freezer compartment is designed for production of ice cubes and short-
term storage (3–4 days) for frozen foods.

How to Use
REVERSING THE DOOR
For easy accessibility, the door on this refrigerator can be changed to open from
the left or right. See the diagram below.
DEFROSTING
Defrost the freezer compartment whenever frost accumulates to a thickness of
¼" or more on freezer walls. Frost tends to accumulate more during the summer
months or in humid areas. NEVER USE A KNIFE OR OTHER SHARP OBJECT TO
REMOVE ICE, AS THIS COULD DAMAGE THE COOLING COILS!
1. Remove food from the refrigerator and freezer compartment.
2. Turn the temperature control dial to OFF and unplug the refrigerator.
3. Keep the freezer door open and place a bowl of warm water in the freezer
compartment.
4. Place the drip tray under the freezer compartment.
5. Use a towel to wipe up dripping water. DO NOT leave unattended (a puddle
may form on the floor and become a slip hazard).
6. Defrosting may take a few hours.
7. After defrosting, wipe down the interior of the refrigerator and freezer. For
thorough cleaning instructions, see page 8.
8. Reset the temperature control dial to the desired temperature and replace
food.
