3. Installation
Before using your appliance
• Remove the exterior and interior packaging.

approximately 4 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the
cooling system from improper handling during transportation.
• Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Free-standing installation

heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat
sources may increase electrical consumption. Ambient temperature below 68°F
(20°C) or above 90°F (32°C) will hinder the performance of this appliance.
This unit is not designed for use in a garage or any other outside installation.

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.
