INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using your Appliance
•
Remove the exterior and interior packaging
•
Check to be sure the refrigerator-freezer shelves in the FF71ES are installed and that the
strips of tape holding them in place have been removed.
•
Check to be sure the FFAR23L has the following parts included:
o
1 water drip tray
o
1 removable shelf
o
2 keys
•
Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for at least 2 hours.
This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during
transportation.
•
Clean the interior surfaces with lukewarm water using a soft cloth. Any plastic odor that you
notice when you first open the doors will dissipate once the appliance is operating.
Installing your Appliance
•
This appliance is designed to be free-standing only, and should not be recessed or built-in.
•
Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. Be sure
the appliance is level. (Level your refrigerator- freezer by adjusting the legs at the front.)
•
Allow at least 4” of clearance at the sides and the top, and 5” between the back of the unit and
the wall behind, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the compressor. This improves
cooling efficiency and saves energy.
•
Do not cover the top of the unit with a mat or cloth. This will help maintain the operating
efficiency of the appliance.
•
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. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also cause the refrigerator to perform
improperly.
•
Avoid locating the refrigerator in moist areas.
•
This refrigerator-freezer is equipped with a three-prong plug and is grounded to eliminate
electrical hazards. In order to make it effective, the unit must be plugged into a grounded
electrical outlet.
•
Do not use an extension cord.
•
After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, allow the unit to cool down for 2 to 3 hours before
placing food inside.
Test Run
Before using the FF71ES refrigerator-freezer, clean it and perform a test run to see if the following
steps can be completed. If not, check the electrical supply. If the cause of trouble cannot be located,
contact your Summit dealer.
1. Set the Temperature Control Knob to the OFF position and then plug the AC cord into an
electrical outlet of 115 volts, 60 Hz. The motor should not run.
