IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS Your safety and the safety of others are very important. Before the appliance is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as described in this manual, so read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury when using the appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following: Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adapter, and do not use an extension cord.
Risk of child entrapment! Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators and freezers are still dangerous, even if they will “just sit in the garage a few days.” Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer: Take off the doors. Leave the shelves or drawers in place so that children may not easily climb inside. Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the appliance.

Locate the unit away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (oven, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also affect the unit's performance. Avoid locating the unit in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to form quickly on the evaporator, requiring more frequent defrosting of the freezer compartment (for refrigerator-freezer models).
a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the unit, be careful not to damage the power cord. Extension Cord: Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance. Reversing the Door Swing: If you find the direction of opening the door of the appliance inconvenient, you can change it.
Changing the Direction of Door Opening on the Low Temperature Compartment (for Refrigerator-Freezer models): Unscrew the blocking element and the hinge of the low temperature compartment and take off the door. Plug the holes with plastic caps provided. Turn the door 180° and replace it on the opposite side of the low temperature compartment. Fix the hinge and the blocking element of the door (position of holes already provided).
not to operate these units mostly empty. If temperatures are erratic, try putting some water bottles or freezer packs inside to create a load for the compressor. NOTES: 1. For best storage, be sure not to over-pack and assure the freezer door closes fully. 2. The glass shelves are adjustable. These shelves stop short an inch before the back wall, which is essential for air flow and the proper operation of the automatic defrost system. Do not block these gaps. 3.
Changes in the ambient temperature affect the temperature inside the refrigerator so choose an appropriate setting of the thermostat knob, depending on ambient conditions. In the STOP (0) position, the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched off), yet the power supply is not interrupted (the light still works). The temperature inside the refrigerator also depends on how often you open the door.
Care and Maintenance Cleaning Your Appliance: 1. Unplug the appliance, turn the thermostat to STOP (0) and remove all contents, including shelves, drip tray and crisper. 2. Wash the inside surfaces with a solution of lukewarm water and vinegar. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth. 3. Wash the shelves, drip tray and crisper with a mild detergent solution, then rinse and dry thoroughly. 4. Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth. 5.
Troubleshooting When using this appliance, you may come across some problems that in many cases result from improper handling and can easily be eliminated. TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE The appliance fails to operate after being connected to the power source. Check whether the power supply is active and that the thermostat is not set to the STOP (0) position. The compressor is running continuously. The door was opened frequently or it was left open too long.
