This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
Use an exclusive wall outlet. Do not connect your refrigerator to extension cords or together with any other appliance in the same wall outlet. Do not splice the cord.
IMPORTANT WARNING
An empty refrigerator can pose a threat to children. To render the unit harmless we strongly recommend removing the door prior to disposal.
INSTALLATION
Remove exterior and interior packings, wipe the outside thoroughly with a soft dry cloth and the inside with a wet, lukewarm cloth. Avoid placing the unit in a narrow recess or near any heat source, direct sunlight, or moisture. Let air circulate freely around the unit. Keep the rear of the refrigerator 5 inches away from the wall.
Location
1)Select a place with a strong, level floor.
2)Allow 5 inches of space between the back of the refrigerator and any adjacent wall.
3)Avoid direct sunlight and heat. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating. Heat sources nearby will cause higher electricity consumption.
4)Avoid damp places. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to form very quickly on the evaporator, and your refrigerator will have to be defrosted more frequently.
OPERATION
To avoid vibration, the unit must be set level. This is accomplished by adjusting the (2) front leveling legs 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 blue 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 turn the control to the “OFF” position, rotate the control knob to the “0” position. If the refrigerator is not being used for long periods, disconnect the plug and leave the door partially open. This will help to reduce mold/mildew from accumulating inside the refrigerator.
Changes in ambient room temperature will affect internal refrigerator temperatures (choose correct setting of the thermostat knob).
•In STOP (0) position, the appliance does not operate (cooling system is switched off)
yet power supply is not interrupted (the light is on when you open the refrigerator door).
