General Features
Adjustable temperature dial:
Y
our refrigerator will automatically maintain the temperature
level you select. The temperature control dial has 7 settings
plus off. 1 is the warmest. 7 is the coldest. Turning the dial
t
o OFF stops cooling in both the refrigeration and freezer
sections. At first, set the dial to 4 and allow 24 hours to
pass before adjusting the temperature to your needs.
(
Note: If the refrigerator has been placed in a horizontal
or tilted position for any period of time wait 24 hours
before plugging the unit in.)

. To replace the shelf, gently slide the shelf back.
Defrosting Your Refrigerator (see fig. # 3)
• For maximum energy efficiency, defrost freezer section
whenever frost accumulates to a thickness of 1/4" or more on
f
reezer walls. Note that frost tends to accumulate more during
the summer months.
• To defrost freezer, remove food and ice cube tray from the
freezer section. Your model requires you to place the drip tray
u
nder the freezer section (see Fig. 3). To defrost turn the
t
emperature control dial to the OFF position. Defrosting may
take a few hours. To speed up defrost time, keep the door
open and place a bowl of warm water in the refrigerator.
• During the defrost cycle, water will accumulate in the drip tray.
T
he drip tray may also need to be emptied during the defrost
p
rocess. Do not leave unattended.
• After defrosting, empty and wipe down the drip tray, as well as
the interior of the refrigerator. You may now reset your
refrigerator to the desired temperature and return food.
Normal Operating Sounds You May Hear
• Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the
r
esult of the refrigerant circulating through the cooling coils.
• The thermostat control will click when it cycles on and off.

and al adhesive tape holding the refrigerator accessories
inside and outside.
2.
Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed
materials before powering on the refrigerator.
Proper Air Circulation
•
T
o assure your refrigerator works at the maximum efficiency it
was designed for
, you should install it in a location where
there is proper air circulation, plumbing and electrical

Electrical Requirment
• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15
amps outlet) with proper grounding to power the refrigerator.
•
Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third

is a dangerous practice since it provides no effective
grounding for the refrigerator and may result in shock
hazard.
Extension Cords
•
Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential
safety hazards under certain conditions. If it is necessary to
use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that
has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that will
accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord
must be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the
appliance.
Install Limitations
• Do not install your refrigerator in any location not
properly insulated or heated e.g. garage etc. Your
refrigerator was not designed to operate in temperature
s
