INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

• Remove the exterior and interior packaging.
• Before connecting the refrigerator to a power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4 hours.
This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from improper handling during
transportation.
• Clean the interior using lukewarm water and a soft cloth. (Cleaning instructions on pg. 10)

INSTALLING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

• This appliance is designed to be free-standing only, and should not be recessed or built in.
• Place your refrigerator on a floor that is strong enough to support the unit when it is fully loaded.
• Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the refrigerator, which allows for proper air
ventilation. Adjust the feet to keep the refrigerator level.
• Locate the refrigerator away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct
sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Ambient
temperatures below 50 °F (10°C) or above 85°F (29.4°C) will hinder the performance of this appliance.
• Avoid locating the refrigerator in moist areas.
• Plug the refrigerator into dedicated, properly installed-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.
This unit is not designed to be installed in an RV or used with an inverter.
• After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, turn the unit on and allow it to cool down for 2-3 hours
before placing food in the refrigerator or chiller compartments.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

WARNING: Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is
damaged, have it replaced by an authorized service center.
• This refrigerator should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this refrigerator is
equipped with a three-prong plug with mates with the standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the
possibility of electric shock.
• DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied.
• This refrigerator requires a standard 115 Volt/60 hz electrical outlet with a three prong ground.
• This refrigerator is not designed for use on an inverter.
• The cord should be secured behind the refrigerator and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental
injury.
• NEVER unplug the refrigerator by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out
from the receptacle.
• 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. Use of an extension cord can negatively
affect the performance of the unit.
