INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Unpacking

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install convertible refrigerator/freezer.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

Removing packaging materials

Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the convertible refrigerator/freezer. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.

Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your convertible refrigerator/freezer. For more information, see “Convertible Refrigerator/Freezer Safety.”

When Moving Your Convertible Refrigerator/Freezer:

Your convertible refrigerator/freezer is heavy. When moving the convertible refrigerator/freezer for cleaning or service, be sure to protect the floor. Always pull the convertible refrigerator/freezer straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the convertible refrigerator/freezer when trying to move it, as floor damage could occur.

Cleaning before use

After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside of your convertible/refrigerator freezer before using it. See the cleaning instructions in the “Convertible Refrigerator/Freezer Care” section.

Location Requirements

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from convertible refrigerator/freezer.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

To ensure proper ventilation for your convertible refrigerator/freezer, allow for ¹⁄₂" (1.25 cm) space on each side and at the top. When installing your convertible refrigerator/freezer next to a fixed wall, leave 2" (5.08 cm) minimum on each side (depending on your model) to allow for the door to swing open.

NOTE: Do not install the convertible refrigerator/freezer near an oven, radiator, or other heat source where the temperature will rise above 110°F (43°C), nor in a location where the temperature will fall below 0°F (-17°C).

1/2" (1.25 cm)

2" (5.08 cm)

Electrical Requirements

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

Before you move your convertible refrigerator/freezer into its final location, it is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection. Your convertible refrigerator/freezer is equipped with a longer power cord for easier placement and movement.

Recommended grounding method

A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15 or 20 amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your convertible refrigerator/freezer be provided. Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension cord.

NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or removing a light bulb, turn the Convertible Refrigerator/Freezer control to OFF and then disconnect the convertible refrigerator/ freezer from the electrical source. When you are finished, reconnect the convertible refrigerator/freezer to the electrical source and reset the control to the desired setting.
