Arctiko BBR100, Operating Instructions Manual, Page: 13 / 36

1. Firm, level floor surface
Installing the unit on a firm and flat floor surface
reduces the chance of excessive noise and
vibration.
2. A place that is far away from any heat source.
Avoid placing the unit near any heat dissipating
devices such as a gas stove, radiator, oven
and other source of heat. The refrigerator would
lose its efficiency once the insulation is exposed
to heat.
3. Do not install a refrigerator in direct sunlight.
If a unit is in direct sunlight, it may not function
properly and its life expectancy can be
shortened.
4. Dry area
Avoid placing the unit near damp areas such as
a water faucet and sink.
5. Clean area
Avoid installing a unit in or near chemical
materials and materials that might have out-
gassing property. Also avoid dusty locations.
6. Good ventilation
There must be sufficient space around the unit
for air ventilation. Lack of such space will reduce the unit’s cooling capability.
7. Ground protection
Grounding the refrigerator will prevent electrical shock to operators if its electrical insulation
become weak.
8. Do not place any objects on top of the
refrigerator.
Location of Refrigerator
Your refrigerator should be placed on a location that satisfies the following conditions. By doing so, the
optimum operating results can be achieved.
An electrical power plug with
a ground prong must be used
to power the unit. This is to
prevent electrical shock.
Do not use water lines to
replace a properly installed
ground wire for ground
protection. This is because
many water lines are actually
built with non-conductors
such as plastic.
Never use gas lines as the
ground protection for the
refrigerator. This action can be
very dangerous.
Never use a telephone line or
lightning rod as a grounding
protection for the refrigerator.
This is because during
lightening, there is a strong
current present which is
extremely dangerous
WARNING
CAUTION
Do not place the unit in an area
where objects can fall directly onto
it. This is to avoid damaging the
refrigerator.
