TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The temperature is controlled by a thermostat which is located on the left side of the ventilation louvers,
below the door. The thermostat has been factory-set to keep the product between 37.4 and 44.6°F (3
and 7°C). At night, or during long periods of inactivity, the appliance goes into an energy-saving mode,
which keeps the temperature between 42.8 and 50.0°F (6 to 10°C).
If it is necessary to readjust the thermostat, please call our toll-free Customer Service number at
800-932-
4267
between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM Eastern time.
LIGHTING
Cabinet lighting is designed to function continuously or may be controlled with a switch, located inside the
unit to the left of the internal fan in the ceiling. See Wiring Diagram on page 8. Fluorescent lighting
surrounds the glass on the interior side of the door. Additionally, the header panel above the door is
backlit.
NOTE:
If the unit is unplugged, or power is lost or turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before
restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the unit will not start.
When you use the unit for the first time or restart the unit after it has been shut off for a long
time, allow a few hours for the interior temperature to normalize.
USER MAINTENANCE
For better performance and user convenience, this refrigerator has been designed to function with the
least possible maintenance and to provide optimal energy consumption and serviceability. It is
recommended, however, that the unit be kept clean and that the following preventative maintenance be
performed.
CABINET CLEANING
Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items, including shelves and shelf clips.
Wash the inside surfaces with a solution of warm water and baking soda (about 2 tablespoons of
baking soda to a quart of water). Once the cabinet interior is clean, dry it with a clean, dry cloth.
Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution, then dry them.
Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning the area where the controls are located,
or any electrical parts.
Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a
clean soft cloth.
Do not use steel wool or a steel brush on stainless steel.
NOTE: Do not use alcohol derivatives or thinner to clean the cabinet.
CAUTION:
Failure to unplug the appliance during cleaning could result in
electrical shock or other personal injury.
CONDENSER CLEANING
Disconnect the refrigerator's power supply before cleaning. The static condenser (on back of unit) should
be cleaned every 12 months for optimum performance. Use a soft-bristle brush to remove excess dust to
improve heat transfer to the surrounding air.
