Electrical Requirement
•Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (220 volts, 15 amps outlet) with proper grounding to power the refrigerator.
•Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding in order to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and may result in shock hazard.
Install Limitations
•Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated or heated e.g. garage etc. Your refrigerator was not designed to operate in temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit.
•Select a suitable location for the refrigerator on a hard even
surface away from direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators, baseboard heaters, cooking appliances etc. Any floor unevenness should be corrected with the leveling legs located on the front bottom corners of the refrigera- tor.
WARNING:
The plug should be reachable by user after the appliance is positioned. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its authorized service agent.
The appliance must be properly earthen (grounded), especially in a place of thick moisture.
Frozen Food
•Proper freezer storage requires correct packaging. All foods must be in pack- ages, which do not allow the flow of air or moisture in, or out. Improper stor- age will result in odor and taste transfer and will result in the drying out of the improperly packaged food.
•Follow package or container instructions for proper storage.
•Packaging Recommendations:
Plastic containers with air tight lids
Heavy duty aluminum foil
Plastic wrap made from saran film
•Do not refreeze defrosted/thawed foods.
•It is recommended that the freezing date be marked on the packaging.
Normal Operating Sounds You May Hear
•The fan circulating air inside the interior of your unit to maintain the temperature you have selected.
•Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the result of the refrigerant circulating through the cooling coils.
•Sizzling or popping sounds resulting from frost melting during the defrost cycle and dripping on the defrost heater.
•The sound of dripping water as ice melts from the evaporator and flows into the drip pan during the defrost cycle.
•Cracking or popping sound caused by the expansion and/or contraction of the cooling coils during the defrost cycle.
•The thermostat control will click when it cycles on and off.
