Installation When moving the appliance once it is indoors, grasp it firmly and tilt it back no more than 45 degrees. Never use the door handle as a support. Never turn the unit upside down or place it horizontally. 1. Install the refrigerator on a flat, solid surface so as to minimize vibration and noise. 2. Allow the following minimum spacing to ensure adequate air circulation: 4” (10 cm) on each side, 4" at the back and 4" on top. Be sure that airflow under the appliance is not blocked. 3.
Operation Temperature Control 1. The temperature in the refrigerator is controlled by turning the thermostat knob installed on the interior right wall of the unit. 2. At the thermostat setting of “0”, the compressor is stopped and no cooling takes place (although electricity still powers the unit). As the knob is turned from "1" up through “7”, the set temperature decreases, with "7" indicating the lowest possible temperature. 3. In normal use, the selector should be set to "3" or “4”.
10. To save energy, reduce the frequency and duration of opening the door. 11. Do not use an extension cord. 12. If your refrigerator has a lock, keep the key away from children to reduce the possibility of a child being locked inside. 13. WARNING: Keep vents in the appliance open and clear of obstructions. 14. WARNING: Take care to avoid damaging the refrigerant circuit. 15.
Care and Maintenance Cleaning 1. The refrigerator should be cleaned every other month. Before cleaning, the electric plug must be removed from the power supply. Do not use coarse or harsh cleaning agents as you can damage the surface. 2. Clean the exterior with a solution of water and a mild detergent. 3. Remove the detachable accessories from inside the appliance and clean them with the water/detergent solution. Plastic parts cannot be put in the dishwasher. 4.
