Changing Door Hinge Location
Refer to the isassembly iagram an
change the oor hinges accor ing to
the following steps.
Defrosting
This refrigerator is equippe with an automatic efrost timer so that no manual
operation is require for efrosting.
The efrost timer is locate on the rear wall of the refrigerator. The black
segment of the efrost timer ial (see below) from 0 to 3 covers a 3-hour time
span an represents the normal efrosting perio the compressor oes not
operate. The efrost timer will continue to operate an will repeat the 3-hour
efrost perio once every twenty-four (24) hours as long as the refrigerator is
plugge in. The most practical time for automatic efrosting is between
mi night an 3:00 a.m.
Example
If the refrigerator was starte at 9:00 a.m., set the timer shaft
to the number 9 on the timer ial. If it was starte at 6:00 p.m.,
set the shaft to number 18.
Defrost starting time may be altere by changing the position
of the timer shaft as esire . For voluntary efrosting, set the timer shaft to 0.
This will start the 3-hour efrosting imme iately an after completion the
refrigeration cycle will begin again. However, the efrosting cycle will be
automatically repeate at the same time every twenty-four (24) hours.
While efrosting, the efrost water is raine out of the cabinet into an
evaporating tray on the rear wall of the refrigerator an is evaporate
automatically. To set the timer shaft, use a screw river an turn the shaft
CLOCKWISE only.
Cleaning an Maintenance
Your refrigerator oes not require any maintenance.
Turn off your refrigerator an remove all foo , shelves, trays, etc. Wash the
interior liner with a solution of two tablespoons of baking so a an a quart of
warm water. Then, rinse an wipe it out. Do not use soaps, etergents,
scouring pow ers, spray cleaners or the like for cleaning the interior liner, as
these may cause o ors in the refrigerator compartment.
Wash the ice cube trays, rip tray an shelves in a mil etergent solution an
ry with a soft cloth.
Wipe the exterior surface with a soft cloth ampene with soapy water an ry
it with a soft cloth. Normal appliance spray cleaners may be use for the
exterior only.
Use only mil soap an water to clean the oor gasket.
Never use aci , chemical thinners,
gasoline, benzene or the like to
clean any part of the refrigerator.
Boiling water an benzene may
eform or amage the plastic parts.
ATTENTION
If the unit is turne off or unplugge , YOU MUST ALLOW THREE (3) MINUTES
BEFORE RESTARTING OR REPLUGGING THE UNIT. The unit will not start if you
attempt to restart it in less than three (3) minutes.
Where to Place Your MicroFri ge®
1. Select a location with a strong, level floor. If the
floor is not quite level, a just the height of the
front legs accor ingly.
2. Allow four inches of space between the
refrigerator’s back an the wall, one inch above
the refrigerator an one inch on the si e.
3. Avoi any irect sunlight an heat. Direct
sunlight may affect the enamel coating. Heat
sources nearby will cause higher electricity
consumption.
4. Avoi very moist places. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to
form very quickly on the evaporator an the refrigerator will have to be
efroste more frequently.
5. Your refrigerator is equippe with a three-prong plug an is groun e to
eliminate electrical hazar s. In or er to make it more effective, it must be
plugge into a groun e electrical outlet.
Test Run Your Refrigerator
Before using your refrigerator, clean it an test run it to see if it is operating
properly. If it is not, then check your electrical source. If you cannot locate
the source of the problem, contact your ealer.
1. Set the temperature control knob to the OFF position an then plug the AC
cor into an electrical outlet of 115 volt, 60Hz. The compressor motor
shoul not run.
2. Set the temperature control knob to the MAX position an let the
refrigerator operate for 20 minutes. The freezer (ice compartment) shoul
get slightly froste an the motor shoul run smoothly with a soft hum.
3. Rotate the temperature control knob counter-clockwise towar the MIN
position. Before the pointer of the temperature control knob reaches the
MIN position, the compressor motor shoul turn off.
How to Remove Ice Cubes from the Tray
The ice cube tray is flexible. Twist the tray to remove the
ice cubes. If the ice cube tray is frozen har to the
surface, o not use a knife or other metal instrument to
remove it because this may amage the surface.
Temperature Control
You can control the temperature insi e your refrigerator by turning the
temperature control ial. Dialing towar MAX means greater cooling power;
towar MIN mean less cooling power. Set the temperature control ials to MAX
only when the rapi refrigeration/freezing of foo stuffs in your refrigerator is
necessary. Be sure to set it back to MED later on
Important
− Do not operate your refrigerator for more than six hours at a stretch with the
temperature control ial set to MAX. At this setting, the compressor will run
continuously. Consequently, foo stuffs store in the refrigerator
compartment will be frozen an frost will form on the cooling (evaporator)
unit.
− At the control ial setting of MIN the freezer
compartment temperature will not remain at a
sufficiently low level for frozen foo s.
Usually the temperature control ial shoul be set at
the MED position.
Before Calling for Service
We urge you to rea the chart below. If the problem is not cause by efective
workmanship or materials, you may be charge for service calls even uring
the warranty perio . Before calling for service, check these few simple points:
Refrigerator

•
Is the temperature control ial insi e the refrigerator set to OFF?
•
Is the unit unplugge ? Be sure!
•
Is the fuse blown or the circuit breaker trippe ?
Storage
compartment
too warm
•
Has the oor been opene frequently? Is it slightly ajar?
•
Are the shelves overcrow e ?
•
Have large amounts of warm foo been a e recently?
•
Are the coils on the back clogge or blocke ?
•
Is the temperature control ial set properly?
Excessive
noise
•
Is the refrigerator level? (Try to rock it.)
•
Are ishes vibrating?
•
Are there objects behin or on top that are shaking?
•
Does any part of the refrigerator touch the back or si e wall?
•
When the motor comes on, you may hear popping or cracking soun s as
metals expan or contract.
Moisture
•

Does the oor fit properly?
1. Remove the hinge cap by twisting it off.
2. Remove the upper hexagonal hea screws.
3. Remove the lower hexagonal hea screws
an the leg on the hinge si e.
4. Remove the other leg.
5. Attach the bottom hinge with the hinge shaft
an the leg symmetrically to the other si e
of the cabinet.
6. Attach the other leg.
7. Remove the two cabinet plug buttons an
remount them in the holes from which the
screws were remove in step 2.
8. Remove the oor plug button using a
screw river an insert it in the opposite si e
of the oor.
9. Use the screw to attach the upper hinge an the spacer (if there is any). Do not tighten the
screw completely.
The irection in which the oor opens has now been change ; however, the following points
shoul be checke :
a. Make sure the oor is on straight.
b. Make sure there is no space between the oor gasket an the refrigerator unit itself when
the oor is close .
c. Make sure that the gasket on the hinge si e is not caught between the oor an the unit
when the oor is opene or close . (If the oor is force close when the gasket is caught,
the gasket may be amage ).
10. After making sure that the oor is installe correctly, tighten all the screws hol ing the hinges.
