Test Run 

Before using the refrigerator-freezer, clean it and make 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. 

2.  Set the Temperature Control Knob at the MAX position and let the unit 

operate for 20 minutes.  The freezer compartment should get slightly frosted 
and the motor should run smoothly with a soft hum. 

3.  Then rotate the Temperature Control Knob counterclockwise toward the 

MIN position.  Before the pointer of the knob reaches the MIN position, the 
motor should turn off. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

Reversing the Door Swing 

The doors of the refrigerator-freezer can be hinged on either side so that the 
door swing can be suited to the location of the installation. 
 
Tools Required: 

  standard screwdriver 

  large Phillips head screwdriver 

  socket wrench (3/8") 

 
In order to reverse the position of the door hinges, refer to the disassembly 
diagram on the following page and follow this procedure. 

1.  Remove the hinge cap by twisting it off. 

2.  Remove the upper hexagonal-head screws.  The top hinge and the freezer 

door can now be removed.
