■To lower, turn the leveling leg clockwise.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling leg which makes it easier to turn.

REFRIGERATOR USE

Using theControl

The temperature control is located at the top of the cabinet.

IMPORTANT:

■Wait 24 hours for your refrigerator to cool completely before adding food. If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your food may spoil.

■The control is set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like.

■Changes in the room temperature or opening the door frequently will affect the internal refrigerator temperature.

To turn ON:

Before first use, or if the refrigerator has been out of use for some time, set the temperarture control to the maximum position for 2 to 3 hours. Once the interior has reached the desired temperature, adjust the control to the desired setting.

To turn OFF:

Turn the control to the “0” position. Turning the temperature control to the “0” position stops cooling in the refrigerator, but it does not disconnect the refrigerator from the power supply.

REFRIGERATOR FEATURES

Important information to know about glass shelves and covers:

Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping. For your protection, tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers are heavy. Use special care when removing them to avoid impact from dropping.

Refrigerator Shelves

The shelves in your refrigerator are adjustable to match your individual storage needs.

Storing similar food items together in your refrigerator and adjusting the shelves to fit different heights of items will make finding the exact item you want easier. It will also reduce the amount of time the refrigerator door is open, and save energy.

To Remove and Replace a Shelf/Frame:

1.Remove the shelf/frame by tilting it up at the front and lifting it out of the shelf supports.

2.Replace the shelf/frame by guiding the rear shelf hooks into the shelf supports. Tilt the front of the shelf up until rear shelf hooks drop into the shelf supports. Make sure that the shelf is firmly in position.

Food Storage Guide

Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food, the type of packaging or wrap used (should be airtight and moisture-proof), and the storage temperature. Seal the package or container to avoid taste and odor transfer throughout the product.

Food should not touch the rear wall of the refrigerator.
