Instruction Manual
•
Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2
hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling
during transportation.
•
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
•
In case the interior accessories are not correctly placed, rearrange them as described in
chapter “Parts and Features”
Installation of Your Appliance
•
Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support the appliance when it is fully
loaded. To level your appliance, adjust the legs at the front of the appliance.
•
Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the appliance, which allows the proper
air circulation to cool the compressor.
•
Locate the appliance 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. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the appliance not to
perform properly.
•
Avoid locating the appliance in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to
form quickly on the evaporator requiring more frequent defrosting of the appliance.
