Care & Cleaning and  

Energy Saving Tips

Care and cleaning

Front Grille

Be sure that nothing obstructs the required 

air flow openings in front of the cabinet. At 

least once or twice a year, brush or vacuum 

lint and dirt from the front grille area.

Cabinet

The painted cabinet can be washed 

with either a mild soap and water and 

thoroughly rinsed with clear water. NEVER 

use abrasive scouring cleaners.

Interior

Wash interior compartment with mild soap 

and water. Do NOT use an abrasive cleaner, 

solvent, polish cleaner or undiluted detergent.

Care of Appliance

  1.  Avoid leaning on the drawer, you 

may bend the drawer slides or tip the 

appliance.

  2.  Exercise caution when sweeping, 

vacuuming or mopping near the front 

of the appliance. Damage to the grille 

can occur.

  3.  Periodically clean the interior of the 

appliance as needed.

  4.  Periodically check and/or clean the 

front grille as needed.

In the Event of a Power Failure

If a power failure occurs, try to correct it as soon 

as possible. Minimize the number of drawer 

openings while the power is off so as not to 

adversely affect the appliance's temperature.

Light assembly replacement

All models use an LED to illuminate the interior 

of the appliance. This component is very 

reliable, but should it fail, contact a qualified 

service technician for replacement of the LED.

The following suggestions will 

minimize the cost of operating 

your refrigeration appliance.

 

1.  Do not install your appliance next to a 

hot appliance (cooker, dishwasher, etc.), 

heating air duct, or other heat sources.

  2.  Install product out of direct sunlight.
  3.  Ensure the front grille vents at front 

of appliance beneath drawer are not 

obstructed and kept clean to allow 

ventilation for the refrigeration system 

to expel heat.

  4.  Plug your appliance into a dedicated 

power circuit. (Not shared with other 

appliances).

  5.  When initially loading your new product, 

or whenever large quantities of warm 

contents are placed within refrigerated 

storage compartment, minimize drawer 

openings for the next 12 hours to allow 

contents to pull down to compartment 

set temperature.

  6.  Maintaining a relatively full storage 

compartment will require less appliance 

run time than an empty compartment.

  7.  Ensure drawer closing is not obstructed 

by contents stored in your appliance.

  8.  Allow hot items to reach room 

temperature before placing in product.

  9.  Minimize drawer openings and 

duration of drawer openings.

 10.  Use the warmest temperature control 

set temperature that meets your 

personal preference and provides the 

proper storage for your stored contents.

 11.  When on vacation or away from 

home for extended periods, set the 

appliance to warmest acceptable 

temperature for the stored contents.

 12.  Set the control to the “off” position if 

cleaning the appliance requires the drawer 

to be open for an extended period of time.

Bottom drawer divider

The bottom drawer has a divider that can 

be flipped up or down depending on your 

preference. There are three positions for 

the divider.
UP- Use to create a partition between the 

front and rear of the drawer.
FLAT- Use to extend the rear of the drawer 

bottom.
DOWN- Use to combine the front and rear 

areas of the drawer.
Move the spring loaded outside latches 

toward the center of the drawer and 

release into a new position.
