INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before using your equipment
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
CAUTION: After unpacking you MUST allow this unit to stand upright for at least 2 hours to
allow the lubricant and refrigerant to drain back into the compressor and stabilize. Failure
to do so may adversely affect performance and the lifetime of this unit.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Installation of your equipment
The unit is designed for free-standing installation for indoor use only.
WARNING: Do not store or install the unit outdoors.
CAUTION: This equipment is designed for the storage of medicine or other medical products. Do not
store beverages or perishable food in this unit.
Place the refrigerator on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To level the
unit, adjust the front leveling legs.
Allow at least 5 inches (127mm) of space between the back, top, and sides of the unit. This allows the
proper air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser for energy saving. The air vent at the front
of the unit must never be covered or blocked in any way.
NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the unit near an oven, radiator or other heating source.
Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption.
Don’t install in a location where the temperature will fall below 60°F (16°C). For best performance, do
not install the unit behind a cabinet door or block the base grille.
Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
Plug the unit into an exclusive, properly grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding
should be directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized service center.
Electrical connection
This unit should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this unit 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. For
personal safety, this equipment must be properly grounded.
This unit requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~ 60Hz three-prong grounded electrical outlet. Have the wall
outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. When a
standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with
a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the unit and not left exposed or dangling.
