    RECEIVING Your unit was built, packaged, and inspected with extreme care. We shipped it to you using carriers we trust with a proven track record of careful handling, good customer service, and on time delivery. Unfortunately, regardless of all of these efforts sometimes accidents happen and occasionally those accidents result in shipping damage.
  • Page 5: Installation

    INSTALLATION UNCRATING – Move your refrigerator as close to the final location as possible before unpacking. Remove the wooden planks or skid. The location should be as close as possible to the power outlet, so the extension cord is not needed. This unit requires a minimum of 4 inches of air flow space in back and 3 inches on the sides and top.
  • Page 6 DOOR BINS (not applicable to all models) Your unit may come equipped with storage bins in the door. Because of the temperature characteristics of these units, items stored in these bins may not be maintained in the desired temperature band. Please restrict the use of these bins for non-critical temperature storage. Shelf Installation (not applicable to all models) Hook shelf clips onto pilaster strips (see Illustration).
  • Page 7: Refrigerator And Freezer Operation

    REFRIGERATOR AND FREEZER OPERATION After the unit is properly installed and power is applied, it will take some time before the system is cooled down to temperature and cycling normally. You should wait 8 hours on the first startup before beginning to add product to the unit. This ensures that the unit is installed and operating properly before being put into service.

    MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING Freezers should be defrosted whenever ¼ to ½ inch of frost has accumulated. Use the procedures in the defrosting section starting at the bottom of this page for best results. Refrigerators require little maintenance but should be cleaned periodically to keep them running efficiently.
