Unpacking Your Refrigerator
• Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive tape holding
the refrigerator accessories inside and outside.
• Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before powering on
the refrigerator.
Proper Air Circulation
• To ensure your refrigerator works at the maximum efficiency it was designed for, you
should install it in a location where there is proper air circulation, and correct plumbing
and electrical connections.
• The following are recommended clearances around the refrigerator.
Sides…………….. 3/4”(19mm)
Top ................... 2”(50mm)
Back ................. 2”(50mm)
Electrical Requirements
• Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (115 volts, 15amp 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.

Operating Instructions
General Features
Your refrigerator will automatically maintain the temperature level selected. The temperature
control dial has 7 settings plus OFF: 1 is the warmest, 7 is the coldest. Turning the dial to 0
stops cooling in both the refrigeration and freezer sections. At first, set the dial to 4 and
allow 24 hours to pass before adjusting the temperature to your needs.
Refrigerator Interior Shelves
To remove or replace a full-width slide-out shelf:
(see Fig. 2)
1. Gently tilt the shelf up and slide forward
until the shelf has been completely removed.
2. To replace the shelf, gently slide the shelf
back.
Defrosting Your Refrigerator (see Fig. 3)
• For maximum energy efficiency, defrost
freezer section whenever frost accumulates
to a thickness of 1/4” or more on freezer
walls. Note that frost tends to accumulate
more during the summer months.
• To defrost freezer, remove food and ice cube
tray from the freezer section. Your model
requires you to place the drip tray under the
freezer section (see Fig. 3). To defrost turn
the temperature control dial to the 0
position. Defrosting may take a few hours.
To speed up defrost time, keep the door
open and place a bowl of warm water in the
refrigerator.

WARNING: To avoid electric shock always unplug your refrigerator before cleaning.
Ignoring this warning may result in death or injury.
CAUTION: Before using cleaning products, always read and follow manufacturer’s
instructions and warnings to avoid personal injury or product damage.
Maintenance
General:
• Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of baking soda mixed with warm water.
Use sponge or soft cloth, dampened with the cleaning solution, to wipe down your
refrigerator.
• Rinse with clean warm water and dry with a soft cloth.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine bleach, concentrated
detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads. SOME of these chemicals may damage and/
or discolour your refrigerator.
Door Gaskets:
• Clean door gaskets every three months according to general instructions. Gaskets must
be kept clean and pliable to assure a proper seal.
• Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge side of gaskets will keep the gasket pliable
and assure a good seal.
Power Interruptions
• Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or other causes.
Remove the power cord from AC outlet when a power outage occurs.
• When power has been restored, plug power cord back to AC outlet. If outage is for a
prolonged period, inspect and discard spoiled or thawed food in the freezer, Clean freezer
before reusing.
Vacation and Moving Care
• For long vacations or absences, empty food from the refrigerator, move the temperature
DIAL to the “O” position and clean the door gaskets according to “General cleaning”
section. Prop doors open, so air can circulate inside. When moving always move the
refrigerator vertically. Do not move with the unit lying down. Possible damage to the
sealed system could occur.
• During the defrost cycle, water will accumulate in the drip tray, as well as the interior of
the refrigerator. You may now reset your refrigerator to the desired temperature and
return food.
Normal Operating Sounds You May Hear
• Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the result of the refrigerant
circulating through the cooling coils.
• The thermostat control will click when it cycles on and off.
NOTE: If the refrigerator has been placed in a horizontal or tilted position for any period of
time, wait 24 hours before plugging the unit in and turning it on again.
