 Energy Saving Tips

 The unit should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances,

and out of the direct sunlight.

 Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the unit. Overloading the unit forces the

compressor to run longer.

 Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit. This cuts

down on frost build-up inside the unit.

 Unit storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners

interfere with cold air circulation, making the unit less efficient.

 Organize and label 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.

This appliance has the capability of the door opening from either the left or right side. The unit is
delivered to you with the door opening from the left side. Should you desire to reverse the opening
direction, please call customer service for reversal instructions.
