- DANGER OF SUFFOCATION!.
Wash the inside
and outside of the appliance with lukewarm water and a mild soap or detergent. Abrasive or
corrosive cleaning agents, steel wool, scouring sponges, or chemical cleaning agents should not
be used under any circumstances. A sponge, soft brush or towel is recommended. After cleaning,
thoroughly rinse and dry. You may want to leave the doors open allowing the compartments
to ventilate for 20-30 minutes to get rid of residual odors. Check with your local Environmental
Agency for recommendations on recycling packaging materials in your area.
POSITIONING THE APPLIANCE
The area in which the fridge is to be installed must be relatively cool, dry, and suitably ventilated.
The area must be protected against any inclement weather (rain, snow) and excessive surface
dust. To ensure proper function, the appliance must be placed on a flat, firm, and stable surface
resting level on all four supports. The floor must be strong enough to support a fully loaded
cabinet. Use wood or metal shims to level the fridge if necessary. Do not place the appliance in
direct sunlight or near sources of heat, such as a stove or heater, as this can increase electrical
consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the appliance to perform
improperly.
Do not place the fridge close to heat sources (heater, stove, boiler, chimney, etc.), and avoid
prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. This appliance uses the exterior walls to transfer heat from
the inside of the cabinet. Ensure that there is adequate space between the fridge and neighboring
walls or large objects.
A minimum spacing of 3 inches (7.6 cm) is highly recommended.
This will
provide sufficient airflow around the appliance resulting in more efficient operation and longer
appliance lifetime. Always keep the air vent openings of the compressor housing cover free from
dust and obstructions. This appliance is intended for free-standing installation only and is not
intended to be built into a cabinet or counter.
