Page 3: Appliance Safety
Appliance Safety Your safety and the safety of others are very important to us. There are many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages. You can be killed or seriously injured if you do not follow these instructions. All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS! WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when using your refrigerator/freezer, follow these basic precautions: Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong, nor use a 3/2 adapter Do not use an extension cord. Use care not to plug into outlets controlled by wall switches. Disconnect power before servicing. After servicing, replace all parts and panels before operating. Use nonflammable cleaners. Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from appliances. Use two or more people to move and install appliance. ... - Page 4 3. Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your appliance. 4. When Moving Your Appliance: Your appliance is heavy. When moving the appliance for cleaning or service, be sure to protect the floor. Always pull the appliance straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the appliance when trying to move it, because floor damage can occur. 5. Clean Before Using After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside of your appliance before using it. See the cleaning instructions in “Appliance Care.” 6. All upright models have level legs in the front and many also have them in the rear. Level as necessary for best operation. 7. If your appliance has casters, after moving into place, lock the brakes on those casters supplied with brakes. Always unlock before moving the appliance for cleaning. Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from appliances. Failure to do so can result in explosion, or fire. Location Requirements IMPORTANT: Do not install the appliance near an oven, radiator, or other heat source, nor in a location where the temperature will fall below 45°F (7°C). Do not place in direct sunlight. Check the strength of the floor before installing your appliance. It should hold the weight of a fully loaded appliance. Allow at least 1” (2.5 cm) of airspace at the top and on both sides of the appliance and 1” (2.5 cm) between the back of the appliance and the wall. If the appliance is going to be placed against a wall, if possible, leave extra space on the hinge side so the door can open wider than its width (to make it easier to remove shelves or storage bins). NOTE: This appliance may be installed side by side with another appliance. Allow for a 3’’ (7.5 cm) clearance at the top and sides, and a ¼” (0.64 cm) clearance between the appliances. ...

Page 5: Appliance Use
your appliance be provided. Use outlets that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain. Connect this appliance to a 3 prong power supply socket outlet (which has a ground terminal). If you only have a two prong outlet have it replaced by a qualified technician with an outlet that meets the local codes. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD. Required nominal voltage and frequency are indicated on the rating plate. The connection to the power supply and grounding has to be made according to current standards and regulations. The appliance resists temporary voltage tolerance from ‐15 to 10%. NEVER USE INDOOR RATED APPLIANCES OUTDOORS. Energy Saving Tips The more airflow you can provide around an appliance, the less energy it will use. If your appliance needs defrosting, keep ice build‐up to less than 1/2 inch. Keep doors or drawers open a minimum of time, and shut securely. Leveling Your Appliance 1. Locate the two front leveling legs taped among the packing materials. In most models these legs are already mounted into the underside of the appliance. 2. Screw these legs into the front holes on the bottom of the appliance. The back of the appliance rests on two fixed supports. (Built‐in models also have rear level legs that can provide more precise leveling). 3. Adjust the front legs just enough to lift the cabinet up off of the floor. 4. Place a leveling tool on top of the appliance: first side to side, then front to back. Turn leg counterclockwise to raise a corner. Turn leg clockwise to lower a corner. 5. Repeat Step 4 until appliance is level. 6. After appliance is fully loaded, recheck with level as in Step 4. 7. If your appliance is equipped with casters, the two front casters have brakes to prevent rolling. Keep brakes locked, and unlock for moving only. ... -

Be sure to replace the bulb with one of the same size, shape, base size and wattage. 6 | P a g e ... - Page 7 1. Unplug appliance or disconnect power. 2. Remove the light shield. Most models do not require tools. 3. Replace the light bulb with an appliance bulb of the same wattage. 4. Replace the light shield. 5. Plug in appliance or reconnect power. Loss of Power After the power is restored, unplug the appliance for 30 minutes, to allow the refrigeration system to equalize. During this time keep the door closed whenever possible. REMEMBER: A full appliance stays cold longer than a partially filled one. Moving Care 1. Remove all containers. 2. Unplug the appliance. 3. Clean it thoroughly. (see appliance care for cleaning instructions) 4. Tape the appliance shut and tape the electrical cord to the cabinet. When you get to your new location, refer to the “Installation Instructions” and “Appliance Use” sections for information on installation and setting the controls. When transporting appliances, it is recommended that you transport it upright. If it is necessary to lay it down, lay on its side—never the front or back—and be sure to check for water in the pan on top of the compressor before moving. Defrost System, Operation and Shelf Adjustment This refrigerator unit comes with no freezer compartment and an auto‐defrost system. During the compressor operation, ice will build along the rear cold wall (the evaporator plate is behind the wall). During the compressor’s off‐cycle, ice will melt, drip down, ...

Page 8: Appliance Care
Appliance Care Cleaning Your Frost‐Free Refrigerator; Use nonflammable cleaners. Frost‐free means that you do not have to defrost your appliance. Frost is removed by air moving and collecting any moisture and depositing it on the cooling coil. The cooling coil periodically warms up enough to melt the frost, and the water then flows down to the drain pan (located behind the base grill) where it is evaporated. Complete cleaning should be done at least once a year. 1. Unplug appliance or disconnect power. 2. Remove all substances. 3. Wash the inside walls with a solution of mild detergent in warm water or 2 tbs. (26 mg) baking soda to 1 qt (0.95 L) warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools. These can scratch or damage materials. 4. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth. 5. Use the appropriate cleaning method for your exterior finish. Painted metal: Wash exteriors with a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners, or cleaners designed for stainless steel. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. For additional protection against damage to painted metal exteriors, apply appliance wax (or auto paste wax) with a clean, soft cloth. Do not wax plastic parts. 6. Plug in appliance or reconnect power. 7. Replace all containers. Stainless steel: Clean stainless steel with special stainless steel cleaners only. Do not use bleach or any abrasive cleaners. Cleaning Your Cycle Defrost or Manual Defrost Refrigerator ... - Page 9 The refrigerator is controlled with a thermostat knob located inside the unit, towards the upper right‐hand corner. Turn the knob clockwise from the STOP (0) position toward the higher numbers for colder temperatures. Temperature Controls Higher settings on the knob (higher numbers) mean lower temperatures (colder) in all compartments of the appliance. On the coldest settings temperatures in some spots of the interior of the appliance may even drop below 32°F. Use higher thermostat settings only when required or recommended. When the ambient temperature is normal, we recommend the medium setting. Changes of the ambient temperature affect temperature in the interior of the appliance so choose a correct setting of the thermostat knob, depending on your ambient conditions. In the STOP (0) position the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched off), yet power supply is not interrupted (the light is on, when you open the refrigerator door). The temperature in the refrigerator and in the freezer compartment also depend on how often you open the door. In all small refrigerators and freezers without interior fans, temperatures are coldest near the bottom, and occasionally near the rear. Place contents accordingly. It is best not to operate these units mostly empty. If temperatures are erratic, try putting some water bottles or freezer packs inside to create a load for the compressor. Digital Thermostat Instructions If you find that it is necessary to change the temperature setting for your digital thermostat controlled appliance, please refer to the following instructions. The front panel of the thermostat is illustrated here: To see the SETPOINT: ...

Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. Check the outlet with a small appliance you know works. ... - Page 14 Defrost and clean the appliance, or move the package so the door closes properly. Is the room temperature hotter than normal? The motor will run longer under warm conditions. At normal room temperatures, your motor will run about 40% to 80% of the time. Under warmer conditions, it will run even more. Has a large amount of food just been added to the appliance? Adding a large amount of food warms the refrigerator or freezer. The motor normally will run longer to cool the appliance back down. Is the door closed completely? Push the door firmly shut. If it will not shut all the way, see “The door will not close completely” later in this section. Are the condenser coils dirty (on some models)? This prevents air transfer and makes the motor work harder. Clean the condenser coils. Is the door gasket sealed all the way around? Contact a qualified technician. NOTE: If the problem is not due to any of the above, remember that the compressor on your new appliance will operate longer than your old one due to its high‐efficiency motor. The interior temperature is too warm: Are the air vents blocked? This prevents cold air movement. Move objects away from the air vents. See “Ensuring Proper Air Circulation” for air vent locations. Is the door opened often? ...
