Setting up your refrigerator
Before using your refrigerator
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
Let the refrigerator stand upright for approximately four hours before
connecting it to power. This reduces the possibility of a malfunction in the
cooling system from improper handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Finding a suitable location
This refrigerator is designed to be free standing only, and should not be
recessed or built-in.
Place your refrigerator on a floor that is strong enough to support the
refrigerator when it is fully loaded.
Allow five inches of space between the back and sides of the refrigerator
and any surrounding walls. This allows the proper air ventilation. Adjust the
feet to keep the refrigerator level.
Locate the refrigerator away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove,
heater, radiator, and so on). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating
and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Ambient
temperature below 50°F (10°C) or above 85°F (29.4°C) will hinder the
performance of this refrigerator. This refrigerator is not designed for use in a
garage or any other outside installation.
Avoid locating the refrigerator in moist areas.
Leveling your refrigerator
It is very important for the refrigerator to be level in order to function
properly. If the refrigerator is not leveled during installation, the doors may
not close or seal properly, causing cooling, frost, or moisture problems.
To level your refrigerator, turn the leveling foot clockwise to raise that side to
the refrigerator or turn it counter-clockwise to lower that side.
Providing proper ventilation
Place the refrigerator at lease five inches from the wall to ensure proper airflow to
the compressor. Do not place the refrigerator near any heat sources, such as a
heater or stove, as this may put a strain on the compressor.
Note: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator helps to take some
weight off the leveling foot and makes it easier to adjust.
