This beverage fridge is a freestanding unit and should not be built into surrounding cabinetry. Allow for proper air clearance around the fridge. The recommended clearances are as follows: Sides: 4.
INSTALLING YOUR SPLIT SHELF The top zone of the fridge comes with an adjustable split shelf configuration for your beverages, enabling you to have either a full-sized shelf or a half-sized shelf to accommodate different sized cans or bottles. To install, simply remove the first shelf from the top zone of the fridge and replace with the included half-sized shelf.

FOOD STORAGE • • • The fridge is suitable for short-term storage of fresh food. The temperature inside varies depending on the amount of food stored, the ambient temperature, and the frequency of door opening. Adjust the thermostat accordingly.

Do not overload the fridge, and ensure there is enough space around items for cold air flow. Do not block ventilation openings.
