INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Refrigerator
•
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
•
Before connecting the refrigerator to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4 hours. This will
reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from improper handling during transportation.
•
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth. (Cleaning instruction on page8)
Installing Your Refrigerator
•
This
appliance is designed to be free standing only, and should not be recessed or built-in.
•
Place your refrigerator on a floor that is strong enough to support the refrigerator when it is fully loaded.
•
Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the refrigerator, which allows the proper air ventilation.
Adjust the feet to keep the refrigerator level.
•
Locate the refrigerator away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct
sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Ambient
temperature below 50°F (10°C) or above 85°F (29.4°C) will hinder the performance of this appliance.
This unit
is not designed for use in a garage or any other outside installation.
•
Avoid locating the refrigerator in moist areas.
•
Plug the refrigerator into dedicated, properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut
or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding
should be directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized service center.
This unit is not designed to
be installed in an RV or used with an inverter.
•
After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, turn the unit on and allow the unit to cool down for 2~3 hours
under before placing food in the refrigerator or freezer compartment.
Electrical Connection
This refrigerator should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this refrigerator is equipped with a
three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied.
This refrigerator requires a standard 220-240Volt A.C. ~/50Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground.
This refrigerator is not designed to be used with an inverter.
The cord should be secured behind the refrigerator and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.
Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the
receptacle. Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance. Use of an extension cord can negatively affect
the performance of the unit.
OPERATING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Temperature Control
•
Your refrigerator has one control for regulating the temperature. The temperature control
is located on the upper right hand corner of the interior compartment.
•
The first time you turn the unit on, adjust the temperature control knob to “6” and run for
at least 2 hours before putting foods inside. This will ensure the cabinet is thoroughly
chilled before food is put in.
WARNING
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock.
If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized service center.
