INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
CAUTION:
After unpacking you
MUST
allow this appliance to stand upright for at least 2
hours to allow the lubricant and refrigerant to drain back into the compressor and stabilize.
Failure to do so may adversely affect performance and the lifetime of this unit.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Install the handle on the door, if it is not already attached. (See page 8.)
INSTALLATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE
The appliance is designed for built-in or recessed or free standing installation for indoor use.
Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To level the
unit, adjust the front leveling legs.
For free standing installation, 5
” (127mm) of space between the back and sides of the unit, and 4”
(102mm) at the top, are suggested. This allows the proper air circulation to cool the compressor and
condenser. Even for built-
in installation, it is a must to keep ¼” (6.35mm) space on each side and at
the top
and 2” (51mm) at the rear. Take care that the air vent at the front of the appliance is never
covered or blocked in any way.
NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the appliance near an oven, radiator or other heating
source. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical
consumption. Don’t install in a location where the temperature will fall below 44°F (7°C). For best
performance, do not install the appliance behind a cabinet door or block the base grille.
Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
Plug the appliance into an exclusive, properly grounded wall outlet.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped
with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three-prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of
electrical shock.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord supplied. For
personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded. Any questions concerning power and/or
grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized service center.
This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~60Hz three-prong grounded electrical outlet. Have
the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or
dangling.
The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating
that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevents
WARNING
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is
damaged, have it replaced by a qualified electrician or an authorized service center.
