NOTE:

 

WE DO NOT RECOMMEND INSTALLING THE REFRIGERATOR WHERE THE 

TEMPERATURE WILL DROP BELOW 32ºF (0ºC) OR RISE ABOVE 110ºF (43ºC). 

THE COMPRESSOR WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN PROPER 

TEMPERATURES INSIDE THE REFRIGERATOR.

 

 

FOR INSTALLATIONS WHERE THE TEMPERATURES WILL DROP BELOW 32º, 

SET THE FREEZER TEMPERATURE CONTROL TO THE “COLDEST” SETTING. 

THIS WILL IMPROVE THE FUNCTIONING THE REFRIGERATOR UNDER 

THESE CONDITIONS.

 

 

 

 

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

 

 

 

Cleaning Your Appliance

 

• 

Unplug the unit and remove the food and bins.

 

• 

Wash the inside 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 bins with a mild detergent solution.

 

• 

The outside of the unit should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.

 

 

CAUTION

 

Failure to unplug the refrigerator-freezer 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 

refrigerator-freezer 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 food.

 

 

 

Vacation Time

 

Short vacations: 

Leave the unit operating during vacations lasting less than three weeks.

 

Long vacations: 

If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all food and unplug the 

power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odour and mold growth, leave the door 

open slightly, wedging it open if necessary.

 

 

 

Moving Your Appliance

 

• 

Remove all food inside the appliance.

 

• 

Securely tape down all loose items inside the unit.

 

• 

Turn the leveling screws up to the base to avoid damage.

 

• 

Tape the door shut.

 

• 

Be sure the unit stays in the upright position during transportation.

 

 

 

Energy Saving Tips

 

• 

The unit should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing appliances or 

heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.

 

• 

Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in the unit. Overloading the unit forces 

the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality or spoil.

 

• 

Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit. This cuts 

down on frost build-up inside the freezer.

 

• 

Organize and label food to reduce the frequency of door openings and extended searches for items 

inside the unit. Remove as many items 

as needed at one time and close the door as soon as 

possible.
