INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using the Refrigerator
•
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
•
Before connecting the refrigerator to a power source, let the unit stand upright for
approximately 6 hours to mitigate the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling
system from improper handling during transportation.
•
Clean the interior surface with warm water using a soft cloth.
Installing the Refrigerator
•
This appliance is designed to be free standing only, and should not be recessed or
built-in.
•
Allow at least 5cm of space between the back and sides of the refrigerator to
allow proper air ventilation.
Insufficient space will result in cooling and working life
issue and voiding warranty.
•
Place the refrigerator on a
leveled/even
floor surface that is strong enough to
support the weight of the refrigerator when it is fully loaded to prevent vibrations.
•
Place the refrigerator on a concrete, tile floor or waterproof floor is
recommended.
The fridge will produce defrost water or condensation moisture,
it might cause water damage in some extreme circumstances.
•
The front feet can be adjusted to level the appliance properly.
Adjust the two
front feet to keep the refrigerator leveled or elevated.
•
Situate the refrigerator away from direct sunlight and sources of direct heat (stove,
heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may also affect the acrylic coating and heat
sources may cause an increase power consumption.
•
This unit is not designed for outside installation.
•
Avoid situating the refrigerator in moist OR
pest infestation
areas.
•
Plug the refrigerator into dedicated, properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not
under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a
certified electrician or an authorized service center.
•
After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, turn the unit on and allow the unit to
cool down for 4-6 hours before placing food in the refrigerator.
•
Do not place heavy items on the top of this appliance.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
•
Allow hot foods to cool to room temperature before placing in the refrigerator.
Overloading the refrigerator forces the compressor to work harder. Foods that freeze
too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
•
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the
refrigerator. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the refrigerator.
•
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as
many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
