Installation
Instructions
Remove exterior and interior packing, wipe the outside thoroughly with a
soft dry cloth and the inside with a wet, lukewarm cloth. Avoid placing the
unit in a narrow recess or near any heat source, direct sunlight, or mois-
ture. Let air circulate freely around the unit. Keep the rear of the refrigera-
tor 2 inches away from the wall.
LOCATION
1) Select a place with a strong, level floor.
2) Allow 2 inches of space between the refrigerator and any adjacent wall.
3) Avoid direct sunlight and heat. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic
coating on the refrigerator exterior. Heat sources nearby will cause
higher electricity consumption.
The refrigerating system in this refrigerator is a “Frost Free” system. This
type of system requires no user intervention (i.e. defrosting) other than
selecting required cooling temperatures and the usual care and
maintenance.
To avoid vibration, the unit must be set level. This is accomplished by
adjusting the (2) front leveling legs, located under the refrigerator. (Fig 1)

An empty refrigerator is a very dangerous attraction to children. Remove the gasket, latches, lids or doors
from unused appliances, or take some other action that will guarantee the appliance harmless.
DANGER: Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator:
• Take off the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb in.
DON’T WAIT! DO IT NOW!
IMPORTANT WARNING!
This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or
serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance
is properly grounded.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
Use an exclusive 115V wall outlet. Do not connect your refrigerator to extension cords or together with any other
appliance in the same wall outlet. Do not splice the cord.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Please ensure that component parts shall be replaced with like components and that servicing shall be done by
factory authorized service personnel, so as to minimize the risk of possible ignition due to incorrect parts or
improper service.
Risk of fire or explosion due to puncturing of refrigerant tubing. Do not use sharp objects to aid in defrost.
Please handle with care. Keep flammable materials and vapors such as gasoline away from the refrigera-
tor. Use nonflammable cleaner.
Disposal of this unit should be in accordance with federal and local regulations.
WARNING! EXPLOSION HAZARD!
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical
shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current.
