Installation
Your cabinet has 4 leveling bolts located in the front
and rear corners of your cabinet. After properly placing
your cabinet in its final position, you can level your
cabinet.
Leveling bolts can be adjusted by turning clockwise to
raise or counterclockwise to lower your cabinet. The
cabinet door will close more easily when the leveling
bolts are extended.
1. Remove all packaging material, including the foam base
and all adhesive tape holding the cabinet accessories
inside and outside. Slide out and remove plastic or foam
guard used to secure the compressor from shipping dam-
age due to vibration and shock.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or
printed materials before powering on the cabinet.

Proper air circulation
To assure your cabinet works at the maximum efficiency it was
designed for, you should install it in a location where there is
proper air circulation, plumbing and electrical connections.
The following are recommended clearances around the cabinet:
Sides: 2" (50mm)
Top: 2" (50mm)
Back: 2" (50mm)
Do not over fill your cabinet for proper internal air circulation.
Electrical requirements
Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (115V, 60Hz) with
proper grounding to power the cabinet.
Avoid using 3 plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding in
order to accommodate a 2 plug outlet. This is a dangerous prac-
tice since it provides no effective grounding for the cabinet and
may result in shock hazard.
Install limitations
Do not install your cabinet in any location not properly insu-
lated or heated. Your cabinet is not designed to operate in tem-
perature settings below 53.6°F.
Locate the cabinet on a hard and flat surface away from direct
sunlight or heat source, e.g. radiators, baseboard heaters, cook-
ing appliances etc. Any floor unevenness should be corrected
by leveling legs located on the front and rear bottom corners of
the cabinet.
Your cabinet is designed for free-standing installation only, not
for built-in application.

Features and use
The temperature in the cabinet is controlled by the ther-
mostat according to the ambient temperature and con-
dition of the food in storage. The thermostat knob can
be rotated clockwise or counter-clockwise between the
scale of "0" and "6" (The numerals do not represent
temperature degree, but temperature changes. With the
value decreasing or increasing, the temperature in the
refrigerator will go up or down, respectively. If scale
"0" is selected, the appliance will cease operation), It is
recommended that the thermostat be set to position "3"
or "4" typical climate conditions, then closer to "0" in
summer and to "6" in winter.
Verify that the thermostat is properly set before setup
and should not be adjusted unless necessary.
Temperature adjustments

Light
For the sake of decoration and practical operation, a mild light
bulb is installed in the cabinet. The light is controlled by the
switch on the fan shield.
Normal operating sounds
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.
Shelf
The shelves are designed for both aesthetics and cleaning
efficiency. The shelves can be removed and relocated. Especially,
these shelves prevent bottles from contacting the evaporator.
