CLEANING
• Wash any removable parts of the refrigerator interior, and
exterior with mild detergent and warm water. Wipe dry.
Do not use harsh cleaners on these surfaces.
• Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments,
which can scratch the appliance surface when removing
adhesive labels. Any glue left from the tape can be
removed with a mixture of warm water and mild deter-
gent, or touch the residue with the sticky side of tape
already removed. Do not remove the serial plate.
DOOR REMOVAL
If door must be removed to fit through narrow doorways:
1. Gently lay refrigerator on its back, on a throw rug or
blanket.
2. Remove the base panel by unscrewing two screws
from front of base panel.
3. At the top of the cabinet, lift up plastic hinge cover, and
fold back. (Figure 1)
4. Use a Phillips® screwdriver to loosen and retighten
the screws on the top hinge to ensure a secure
assembly, and prevent hinge slippage.
5. Remove the top hinge from cabinet, and lift door off
lower hinge pin.
6. After door is removed, remove the two screws from the
bottom hinge.
7. To replace door, reverse above order.
• Install the refrigerator in the coolest
part of the room, out of direct sunlight
and away from heating ducts or
registers. Do not place the refrigerator
next to heat- producing appliances
such as a range, oven or dishwasher.
• Level the refrigerator so the door close
tightly.
• Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold air
vents. Doing so causes the refrigerator to run longer
and use more energy. Shelves should not be lined with
aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling. Liners
interfere with cold air circulation, making the refrigerator
less efficient, which could cause food spoilage.
• Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing
them in the refrigerator. This cuts down on moisture
build-up inside the unit.
• Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings.
Remove as many items as needed at one time and
close the door as soon as possible.

COOL DOWN PERIOD
For safe food storage, allow 4 hours for the refrigerator to
cool down completely. The refrigerator will run continuously
for the first several hours.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The temperature control is located inside the refrigerator. The
temperature is factory preset to provide satisfactory food
storage temperatures. However, the temperature control is
adjustable to provide a range of temperatures for your
personal satisfaction. If a colder temperature is desired, turn
the temperature control knob toward COLDEST and allow
several hours for temperatures to stabilize between adjustments.
