OPERATING YOUR UNIT

Setting the Temperature Control

Your unit has only one control for regulating the temperature in the compartment. The temperature control is located on the upper right hand side of the compartment.

The first time you turn the unit on, set the temperature control to “6”.

The range of the temperature control is from position "OFF” to “6”. After 24 to 48 hours, adjust the temperature control to the setting that best suites your needs. The setting of “4” should be appropriate for home or office use.

To turn the appliance off, turn the temperature control to ”OFF”.

NOTE:

Turning the temperature control to “OFF” position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut off the power to the unit.

If the unit is unplugged, has lost power, or is 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.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning Your Unit

Turn the temperature control to "OFF", unplug the unit, and remove the food, shelf, and tray.

Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.

Wash the shelf and tray with a mild detergent solution.

The outside of the unit should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.

Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth before cleaning the area of the controls, 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.

CAUTION:

Failure to unplug the unit could result in electrical shock or personal injury.

Power Failure

Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your unit if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your food.

Vacation Time

Short vacations: Leave the unit operating during vacations of less than three weeks.

Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all food and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary.

Moving Your Unit

• Remove all the food.

• Securely tape down all loose items inside your unit.

• Turn the leveling legs up to the base to avoid damage.

• Tape the door shut.

• Be sure the unit stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect the outside of unit with a blanket, or similar item.
