8) After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces
in the freezer compartment, particularly when hands are damp or wet.
Skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
9) Do not refreeze foods that have been thawed completely. The United
States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69
reads: “…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if
they still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold-below 40˚F.
“…Thawed ground meats, poultry, or fish that have any off-odor or
off-color should not be refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice
cream should be discarded. If the odor or color of any food is poor or
questionable, discard it. The food may be dangerous to eat.

PARTS AND FEATURES

Unpacking Your Refrigerator
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive
tape holding the refrigerator accessories inside and outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before
powering on the refrigerator.
Leveling Your Refrigerator
• Your refrigerator has two leveling legs which are located in the front bottom
corners of your refrigerator. After properly placing your
refrigerator in its final position, you can level your refrigerator.
• Leveling legs can be adjusted by turning them counterclockwise to raise
your refrigerator or by turning them clockwise to lower your refrigerator. The
refrigerator door will close easier when the leveling legs are extended.
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,
plumbing and electrical connections.
• The following are recommended clearances around the refrigerator:
Sides……………4"
Top..................4"
Back.................4"
Door Alignment
1. Remove the top hinge cover by using a flathead
screwdriver. Place the head under the front edge
of the cap and gently lift.
2. Loosen the top hinge screws using a Phillips
head screw driver.
3. Adjust the door or put a spacer in between and
tighten the screws.
4. Replace the top hinge cover by aligning the rear
of the cover with the rear of the hinge. Press

INSTALLING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
fig. 1

6
English
Electrical Requirement
• Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet) with
proper grounding to power the refrigerator.
• Avoid the use of three prong adapters or cutting off the third grounding prong
in order to accommodate a two prong outlet. This is a dangerous practice since
it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and may result in shock
hazard.
Use of Extension Cords
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that will
accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord must be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
Installation 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 refrigerator.
NOTE: As the door gets pressed in during shipping, after reversing the door, the
gasket may have to be reset. This is done to prevent the cool refrigerated
air from escaping. If there is a gap between the door gasket and the
cabinet, set the gasket by gently pulling it out to seal the gap.

General Features
Adjustable temperature dial:
Your refrigerator will automatically maintain the temperature level you select.
The temperature control dial has 5 settings plus "0". 1 is the warmest. 5 is the
coldest. At first, set the dial to 3 and allow 24 hours to pass before adjusting the
temperature to your needs.
(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.)
Freezer Compartment / Use of the Ice Cube Trays
This compartment is designed for making ice cubes and for short-term food
storage (a few days at most).
WARNING: This compartment is not cold enough to freeze foods safely for more
than 5 days.
• If ice cube tray freezes to the bottom of the compartment, pour a little warm
water around it to loosen it. Do not use boiling water, which can damage
plastic parts, or sharp metal objects such as a knife or screwdriver, which can
damage the cooling system tubing. Wash the ice cube tray in lukewarm water
only. Do not wash in the dishwasher.
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.

Food Storage Information
Fresh Food
• When storing fresh food that is not prepackaged, be sure to wrap or store food
in airtight and moisture proof material unless otherwise noted. This will ensure
proper shelf life and prevent the transfer of odors and tastes.
• Wipe containers before storing to avoid needless spills.
• Eggs should be stored in an upright position in their original carton to maximize
shelf life.
• Fruit should be washed and dried, then stored in sealed plastic bags before
storing in the refrigerator.
• Vegetables with skins should be stored in plastic bags or containers.
• Leafy vegetables should be washed and drained and then stored in plastic bags
or containers.
• Hot food should be allowed to cool before storing in the refrigeration. This will
prevent unnecessary energy use.
• Fresh seafood should be used the same day as purchased.
• When storing meats in the fresh food section, keep in the original
packaging or rewrap as necessary. Follow the suggestions below for safe
storage:
• Chicken 1-2 Days
• Ground Beef 1-2 Days
• Cold Cuts 3-5 Days
• Steaks/Roasts 3-5 Days
• Smoked/Cured Meats 7-10 Days
• All others 1-2 Days
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.

Cleaning and Maintenance
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.
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 dissolve, damage and/or
discolor 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 ensure a good seal.
Defrost
Defrost whenever frost on the wall of the freezer compartment becomes 1/8"
thick. Never us a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage
the cooling coils. (A punctured cooling coil will cause serious damage to the
product and will void the warranty). We recommend using a plastic scraper. To
defrost, remove foods and ice cube tray from the freezer compartment. Make
sure the drip tray is in place and unplug the unit. Defrosting usually takes a few
hours. To defrost faster, keep the door open and place a bowl of warm water in
the refrigerator. After defrosting, empty water from the drip tray and wash the
drip tray in warm water.
PROPER REFRIGERATOR CARE AND CLEANING

10
English
Power Interruptions
• Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or
other causes. Remove the power cord from wall outlet when a power
outage occurs. When power has been restored, replug power cord to
wall outlet. If outage is for a prolonged period, inspect and discard
spoiled or thawed food in freezer and refrigerator. Clean refrigerator
before reusing.
Vacation and Moving Care
• For long vacations or absences, empty food from refrigerator and
freezer, move the temperature dial to the "0" position and clean
the refrigerator and 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.
Energy Saving Tips
• The refrigerater should be located in the coolest area of the room,
away from heat-producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of
direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the
refrigerator. Overloading the refrigerator forces the compressor to run
longer and thus increases energy consumption. Foods that refrigerate
too slowly may lose quality or spoil.
• Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before
placing in the refrigerator.
• The shelves should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or
paper towels. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the
refrigerator less efficient.
• Organize food to reduce door openings and extended searches.
Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as
soon as possible.

11
English
Refrigerator does not operate:
• Check if thermostat control is not in the “OFF” position.
• Check if refrigerator is plugged in.
• Check if there is power at the wall outlet, by checking the circuit breaker.
Food temperature appears too warm:
• Frequent door openings.
• Allow time for recently added warm food to reach fresh food temperature.
• Check gaskets for proper seal.
• Adjust temperature control to colder setting.
Food temperature is too cold:
• If temperature control setting is too cold, adjust to a warmer setting and allow
several hours for temperature to adjust.
Refrigerator runs too frequently:
• This may be normal to maintain constant temperature during high temperature
and humid days.
• Doors may have been opened frequently or for an extended period of time.
• Check gasket for proper seal.
• Check to see if doors are completely closed.
Moisture build up on interior or exterior
of the refrigerator:
• This is normal during high humidity periods.
• Prolonged or frequent door openings.
• Check door gaskets for proper seal.
Refrigerator has an odor:
• Interior needs cleaning.
• Foods improperly wrapped or sealed are giving off odors.
Refrigerator door does not shut properly:
• Level the refrigerator.
• Re-align refrigerator door.
• Check for blockages, e.g. food containers, crisper cover,shelves, bins, etc.
Popping or cracking sound when the compressor comes on:
• Check to ensure the refrigerator is level.
• The floor may be uneven or weak. The refrigerator rocks on the floor when it is
moved slightly. Be sure the floor can adequately support the refrigerator. Level
the refrigerator by putting wood or metal shims under part of the refrigerator.
• The refrigerator is touching the wall. re-level the refrigerator and move it from
the wall. See the “Installing Your Refrigerator” section.
