Read all of the instructions before using this appliance. If instructions are not

This unit is not designed to operate in enclosed spaces. When placing your
unit, make sure you allow adequate airflow on all sides.
When using this appliance, always exercise basic safety precautions, including
the following:
1. Do not connect your appliance to the power supply until all packing and
transit protectors have been removed.
2. Let it stand upright for at least 4 hours before switching it on to allow the
refrigerant system to settle if transported horizontally.
3. This appliance should not be used in a cold, unheated room such as a garage
or shed, or on an outdoor patio.
4. Upon delivery, check to make sure that the product is not damaged and that
all the parts and accessories are in perfect condition. Do not operate a
damaged appliance.
5. Use this appliance only for its intended purpose, that is, the storing and
freezing of edible foodstuffs.
6. This refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the
Installation
instructions before it is used. See “Electrical Requirements” in the
Installation
section.
7. Repair or replace immediately all electrical service cords that have become
frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or
abrasion damage along its length or at the plug or connector end.
8. Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or making any repairs.
NOTE: If for any reason this product requires service, we strongly
recommend that a certified technician perform the service.
9. Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grasp the
plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.
10. Do not use any electrical device or any sharp instrument in defrosting your
refrigerator.
11. If your old refrigerator is not being used, we recommend that you remove the
doors and leave the shelves in place. This will reduce the possibility of danger
to children.
12. After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces in the
freezer compartment, particularly when hands are damp or wet. Skin may
adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
