CARE AND MAINTENANCE

OPERATING YOUR UNIT
• Your unit has only one control for regulating the temperature in the compartment. The
temperature control is located on top side of the compartment.
• The first time you turn the unit on, set the temperature control to “5”.
• The range of the temperature control is from position "OFF” to “5”. After 24 to 48 hours, adjust
the temperature control to the setting that best suits your needs. The setting of “3” should be
appropriate for home or office use.

To turn the appliance off, turn the temperature control to
”OFF”.
NOTE:

Turning the temperature control to “OFF” position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut off
the power to the unit.

If the unit is unplugged, has lost power, or is turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before
restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the unit will not start.
CAUTION:
In the event of ice build-up, do not use boiling water to thaw. Doing so may damage plastic
parts. In addition, never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage
the cooling system and will void warranty. Turn off and unplug the unit and allow the ice to
melt with the door open.

Cleaning Your Unit
•
Turn the temperature control to "OFF", unplug the unit, and remove any drinks, shelf, and
tray.
•
Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should
be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
•
Wash the shelf and tray with a mild detergent solution.
•
The outside of the unit should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.
•
Leave excess water out of the sponge or cloth before cleaning the area of the controls, or
any electrical parts.
•
Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe
dry with a clean soft cloth.
CAUTION:
Failure to unplug the unit could result in electrical shock or personal injury.

Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of
your unit if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off
for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your drinks.

Vacation Time
•
Short vacations: Leave the unit operating during vacations of less than three
weeks.
•
Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all
drinks and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent
odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary.

Moving Unit
•
Remove all the drinks.
•
Securely tape down all loose items inside your unit.
•
Turn the leveling legs up to the base to avoid damage.
•
Tape the door shut.
•
Be sure the unit stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect
the outside of unit with a blanket, or similar item.
