Electrical Connection
This refrigerator should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this refrigerator is
equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the
possibility of electrical shock.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied.
This refrigerator requires a standard 115/120 A/C –volt/60Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground.
The cord should be secured behind the refrigerator and not left exposed or dangling to prevent
accidental injury.
Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight
out from the receptacle.
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance.
OPERATING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Setting the Temperature Control
• To control the internal temperature, adjust the control dial according to the ambient
temperature or purpose of use.
• The first time you turn the unit on, set the temperature control to “7.”
• The range of the temperature control is from position "0” to “7”. After 24 to 48 hours, adjust
the temperature control to the setting that best suites your needs. The setting of “4” should
be appropriate for home or office refrigerator use.
NOTE:
If the unit is unplugged, has lost power, or is turned off; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before
restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the refrigerator will not start.
Turning the temperature control to "0" position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut off the
power to the appliance
.
Warning
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is
damaged, have it replaced by an authorized Avanti Products service center.
