Before use, make sure all packaging labels and materials are all removed from the unit. Be sure to keep track of all in
cluded parts and pieces before discarding packaging materials. It is advised that you keep the original box and packaging
materials in case you are ever to move or ship the appliance in the future.
Allow the unit stand for at least 24 hours before you use it; this allows the cooling components time to settle from transit. The
