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 materi-
als before powering on the refrigerator.
• To assure 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……………3/4 “(19mm)
Top ....................2” (50mm)
Back ..................2” (50mm)
• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps out-
let) 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 prac-
tice since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and
may result in shock hazard.

Electrical Requirements

• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety haz-
ards 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.
• 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.

Refrigerator Features And Use
General Features
Your refrigerator will automatically maintain the temperature level you select.
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.
(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.)
Eraser Board Use
Please note dry erase markers must be used on surface.
Dry erase markers and eraser are not included.
Refrigerator Interior Shelves

English
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.
• During the defrost cycle, water will accumulate in the drip tray. The drip
tray may also need to be emptied during the defrost process. Do not leave
unattended.
• After defrosting, empty and wipe down 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.

Proper Refrigerator Care and Cleaning
Cleaning and Maintenance
To avoid electric shock always unplug your
refrigerator before cleaning. Ignoring this warning may
result in death or injury.
Before using cleaning products, always read and
follow manufacturer’s instructions and warnings to avoid
personal injury or product damage.
• 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.
• 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.

• 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, replug power cord to AC outlet. If outage is
for a prolonged period, inspect and discard spoiled or thawed food in freezer.
Clean freezer before reusing.
• For long vacations or absences, empty food from 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.

risques pour la sante. S’i c’est necessaire d’utiliser une cordon d’extension,
utilisez une rallonge a 3 conducteurs disposant d’une fiche a 3 lames et une
sortie a 3 fentes qui accepteront la prise. Le calibre defini des rallonges doit
etre egal ou superieur a celui de l’equipement.
• N’installez jamais votre refrigerateur dans un endroit insuffisamment isole ou
chauffe, par exemple, le garage etc... Votre refrigerateur n’a pas ete concu
pour operer a une temperature inferieure a 55degres Fahrenheit.
