ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION
BEFORE USING YOUR FRIDGE
Remove the exterior and interior packing. Before plugging in the
fridge, let it stand upright for approximately 24 hours.
This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system
from handling during transportation. Once you have plugged the fridge into an
electrical outlet, let the fridge run for at least 30 minutes to acclimate before
making any adjustments.
INSTALLING THE FRIDGE
Place your fridge on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully
loaded. To level the fridge, turn the adjustable feet accordingly.
Note:
It is recommended that you do not install the fridge near an oven,
radiator or other heating source. Any nearby heat sources may increase
electrical consumption and cause temperature fluctuation. Do not install in a
location where the temperature will fall below 50°F (~10°C) or rise above 110°F
(~43°C). Do not install the fridge behind a cabinet door, under a counter or
between cabinets. Avoid installing the fridge anywhere with excessive
moisture.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
•
The fridge should be placed in the coolest location possible, away from
excess heat from any source (stoves, sunlight, etc.)
•
Ensure that the fridge is adequately ventilated. The more open air you
have around the fridge, the better.
•
Do not keep the door open any longer than necessary.
•
If you’re storing food in your fridge, be sure to l
et hot foods cool to room
temperature first.
•
Do not overload the fridge, as it forces the compressor to run more
frequently, increasing the power consumption.
•
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing
them in the fridge, in order to prevent frost buildup.
•
Do not line shelves with aluminum foil, wax paper or paper towels, as they
will prevent proper air circulation.
