USE OF EXTENSION CORDS

Avoid  the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions.  If it is necessary to use an extension cord,  use only a 3-wire
extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that will accept
the plug.  The marked rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than
the electrical rating of the appliance.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL

The temperature control dial is located in the upper
right section of the refrigerator section. This controls
both the refrigerator and the freezer compartments
and has the following settings:

“1” to “7” plus “0” which indicates off
“1” is the warmest
“7” is the coldest

Initially, set the temperature control dial to “4”.

Allow the refrigerator to cool sufficiently before adding foods. Wait 24 hours after
filling the refrigerator to adjust the temperature control to the setting that is best
suited to your needs. Positions “2” and “3” are normal settings. Adjustment may
be necessary if your refrigerator is placed in a very warm or a very cool location
and as seasons change.

Important: 

 If you  unplug or turn off  the refrigerator,  allow 4 minutes before

restarting it or plugging it back in.

FREEZER COMPARTMENT

Your refrigerator is equipped with a freezer compartment which freezes up to 14
pounds of food in a 24 hour period and allows preservation of food for long periods
of time. An ice cube tray is also included for convenience.

When adding a large amount of unfrozen food to the freezer compartment, set the
temperature control on “7”. Place unfrozen foods on the shelf in the freezer
compartment. Transfer them to the lower portion of the freezer compartment after
they are frozen.

SHELVING

The refrigerator and freezer compartments have shelves that can be moved to
different levels to suit your food storage needs.
