INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE
Remove the exterior and interior packing.

CAUTION
:
This appliance is designed for storing and cooling beverages. Do not store perishable food, medi-
cine or other medical products.

•
To level your appliance, adjust the leveling legs at the bottom of the appliance if needed.
•
For freestanding installation, 5 inches (127mm) of space between the back and sides of the appliance are
suggested, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser. Even for built-in in-
stallation, it is a must to keep a ¼” (6.35mm) space on each side and at the top. And the air vent at the front
of
the appliance must never be covered or blocked in any way.

acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. For best performance, do not install the
appliance behind a cabinet door or block the base grille.
