Important safety instructions
WARNING
!
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
injury when using your refrigerator, follow
these basic precautions:
Read all instructions before using the refrigerator.
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are
still dangerous ... even if they will "just sit in the garage a few days".
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, do it safely.
Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the refrigerator.
Never clean refrigerator parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
We suggest to remove the door or thigh it with a resistant cord.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
DO NOT STORE OR USE GASOLINE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN THE
VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER APPLIANCE. THE FUMES CAN CREATE A FIRE HAZARD OR
EXPLOSION.
IF THE ELECTRICAL CORD IS DAMAGED, OUR SERVICE DEPARTMENT OR A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN SHOULD CHANGE IT.

How to install the refrigerator
Before connecting the new refrigerator follow these steps:
1.
Remove all packing material and the wood bases.
2.
Install your refrigerator under the following conditions:
Allow 7,5 cm (3 inches) between overhead cabinets and
refrigerator top.
Allow at least 5 cm (2 inches) between the refrigerator
condenser on the back and the wall.
Allow 1,25 cm (1/2") on each side of the refrigerator for ease
of installation.
If the hinge side of the refrigerator is to be against the wall, you might want to leave extra
space so the door can be opened wider.
Grounding method
Your refrigerator has an electrical cord provided with 3 prong
grounding plug. To minimize the possibility of electrical shock,
the cord must be plugged into a mating 3 prong grounding type
wall outlet according to national electrical code and all local
codes.
If plug will not fit the outlet, is your responsibility to have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

refrigerator to rest from 2 to 3 hours in order to let the gas
and oil be settled.
Connecting your refrigerator
A 110-127 V~ , 60 Hz AC only 15 or 20 A fused and
properly grounded electrical supply is required.
Your refrigerator is provided with a deodorizer that acts as a filter,
absorbing unpleasant odors that circulate inside the refrigerator.
The doedorizer is built in the cold air circulation duct and it does
not require any special attention.
Turning the temperature control to Apagado (Off) stops cooling in
both the refrigerator and freezer compartments. But it does not
disconnect the refrigerator from the power supply.
