To
avoid vibration, the unit must be set level. This is accomplished by adjusting the (1) front leveling leg located under
the
refrigerator. The temperature of the refrigerator is controlled by setting the thermostat knob to a desired
setting.
TEMPERATURE
SELECTION
To
start the refrigerator, turn the temperature control knob
to
the position corresponding to the desired cooling (on
the
graduated black dial) in Fig.A. The refrigerator temperature
will vary depending on the quantity of the food stored, and
on
the frequency with which the door is opened.
To tum the control to the OFF" position, rotate the
control
knob to the "0" setting. After defrosting and if the refrigerator
has been left out of use for some time, set the control
to
maximum for 2 to 3 hours bef ore turning to the desired
posi-
tion. If the refrigerator is not to be used for long time
peri-
ods, disconnect the plug and leave the door partially
open.
This will help reduce the mold/mildew from accumulating
inside the refrigerator
cabinet.

CARE AND
MAINTENANCE
DEFROSTING
Defrosting of your refrigerator should take
place
whenever ice build-up inside the freezer compartment
reach-
es
114•
(6mm) thick. Defrosting may take a few
hours,
depending on the amount of accumulated ice and
ambient
indoor temperature. To speed up the defrosting
process,
remove all frozen foods from the freezer section. Leaving
the
door partially ajar for a short period of time will also speed
up
the
process.
Note: Never use sharp or pointed instruments
to
remove ice from the freezer compartment. The freezer
compartment contains refrigerated gas lines and
if
accidentally punched/pierce
d
,
will render
the
refrigerator inoperable and void the manufacturers warranty.
DO NOT ALLOW THE REFRIGERATOR TO CONTINUE
OPERATION IF THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT
IS
PIERCED.
After defrosting is complete, set the control to maximum for
2
to 3 hours before returning to the desired position. When
the
refrigerator is not to be used for a long period of time,
discon-
nect the appliance from the electrical supply and leave
the
door partially open. This will help to reduce mold and
mildew
build-up.
Note:Wait 3 to 5 minutes before attempting to restart
the
refrigerator if operation has been
interrupted.
