alarm function will be reactivacted if the door is left open for more then 3 minutes and will beep
3 times every 3 minutes until the door is closed. The sound will stop after 10 minutes if the door is
not closed.
INTERIOR LIGHT
The interior LED light is situated on the inside ceiling of the fridge compartment, it will turn on
when the door of the appliance is opened and will turn off when the door is closed. If the interior
light burns out, contact a certied service technician to have it replaced. Note: The functionality of
the appliance is not affected if the light is not working.
LEVELING INSTRUCTIONS
There are adjustable legs on the bottom of the front of the appliance that can be turned up or
down to ensure that the appliance is level.
1. Turn the leveling leg counter-clockwise as far as it will go, until the top of the foot is touching the
bottom of the cabinet.
2. Slowly turn the leveling leg clockwise until the appliance is level.
OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR
The doors are tted with uniform sealing strips to prevent warm air and moisture from entering the
fridge and freezer compartments.
Be sure that the doors and door seals are free from obstructions and form a complete seal around
the rim of the fridge/freezer cabinets. Over-stufng and/or unlevel installation of the appliance will
prevent a good seal. It might be hard to open the door immediately after the door is closed. This
is due to air contraction in the fridge/freezer cabinets. This pressure difference will equalize in a
few seconds, making the doors easy to open once again.
LOADING THE FRIDGE AND FREEZER
Avoid packing food too tightly around the cooling plates located on the back wall of the fridge/
freezer. Allow air ow around these plates to ensure proper operation.
When adding unfrozen food to the freezer for the rst time, ll the freezer only 1/3 full and wait
until that food is sufciently frozen
before adding more. It will also help to cool food more quickly if the food is packaged in smaller
containers rather than large ones. Food packages more than 2 inches thick will cool slowly. Avoid
placing warm food in contact with cold food.
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
• You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant is being pumped through
the refrigerant coils.
• When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being pumped through the appliance and you will
hear a whirring or pulsing sound from the compressor.
• A thermostat controls the compressor and you may hear a ‘click’ when the thermostat cuts in
and out.
IMPORTANT: Your appliance is “Frost Free” and does not require defrosting
WATER CATCH BASIN
There is a water catch basin located at the back of the fridge for excess water. With frost free wa-
ter will ow from the walls of the fridge compartment through the defrost water drain down into
the catch basin. The hot condenser coil runs into the water catch basin and evaporates the water
slowly: Note: if the fridge has to be moved after some time, it would be best to remove the water
from the catch basin rst..
