Installation

The refrigerator should be installed in accordance with local electrical code requirements. The refrigerator

should also be placed in a location that is strong enough to support its total weight, keeping in mind that

it will weigh substantially more when fully loaded than when empty. Before you plug the refrigerator

into a power supply, be sure to let it stand upright for at least 24 hours to allow the compressor’s

oils to settle.

Unpacking the Refrigerator

Warning: Use two or more people to move and install the refrigerator. Failure to do so

can result in back or other injury. Carefully remove the packaging materials. Remove any

shipping tape and glue from your refrigerator before use. Do not use sharp instruments,

rubbing alcohol, ammable uids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These

products can damage the surface of your refrigerator.

Warning: Do not remove any safety, warning, or product information labels from your

refrigerator.

This refrigerator has been designed for freestanding installation. This will allow you to install the

refrigerator in almost any place you desire. You must follow the stated instructions for electrical

requirements and leveling the refrigerator.

Notes:

• This unit MUST be installed in an area protected from the elements, e.g. wind, rain,

water spray, or drips.

• The refrigerator should not be located next to ovens, grills, or other heat sources.

• Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord between the refrigerator and the wall or

cabinet.

Clearance Requirements

Leave 8” of space on either side of the refrigerator, 6” at the rear, and 8” above the unit.This will allow

cold air to circulate around the refrigerator and improve the e󰀩ciency of the cooling process. The door

can be opened to the right or the left, depending on what best suits the location. Please ensure there is

adequate space for the door to fully open.

Note: The refrigerator should be installed on a rm and level surface that will be able to

support the entire weight of a fully loaded unit. It is important for the refrigerator to be level

in order to work properly. If needed, you can adjust the height of the refrigerator by rotating

the feet. See the “Leveling the refrigerator” section.

A standard electrical supply (115 VAC only, 60 Hz) properly grounded in accordance with National

Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances is required. The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should

be 15 Amps.

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD!

• Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.

• Never remove the grounding prong from the plug.

• Never use an adapter to bypass the grounding prong.

• DO NOT use an extension cord.

• Failure to follow these instructions can result in re, electrical shock, or death.

Electrical Requirements

Recommended Grounding Method

For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. It is equipped with a power supply cord that

has a 3-pronged grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a

mating 3-pronged wall socket, and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local

codes and ordinances. If a mating wall socket is not available, it is the personal responsibility of the

customer to have a properly grounded, 3-prong wall receptacle installed by a qualied electrician.

Leveling the Refrigerator

It is important for the refrigerator to be level in order to work properly. It can be raised or lowered by

rotating the leveling feet at the front of the unit. If you nd that the surface is not level, rotate the feet until

the refrigerator becomes level. You may need to make several adjustments to level it. We recommend

using a carpenter’s level to check the machine.

1. Place a carpenter’s level on top of the product to see if the refrigerator is level from front to back

and side to side.

2. Adjust the height of the feet as follows:

Turn the leveling feet to the right to lower that side of the refrigerator.

Turn the leveling feet to the left to raise that side of the refrigerator.

Warning: DO NOT install the refrigerator behind a closed cabinet door.

Cleaning Prior to Use

Notes:

• Before you begin, unplug the refrigerator.

• If it is necessary to tilt the unit backwards, rest the unit on something solid so

that it will not slip during the process.

• Do not lay the unit at as this may damage the coolant system.

Reversing the Door Swing

1. Unscrew the two screws from the bottom hinge and remove the hinge from the unit. Remove the

leveling leg from the opposite side. Set the hinge, leg, and screws aside in a safe location.

2. Slide the lower door down from the hinge pin located on the top of the door. Set the door aside.

Although the refrigerator is cleaned at the factory, dust and contaminants can accumulate during

transport, and it is important that the refrigerator be thoroughly cleaned prior to its rst use.

Wipe the inside of the unit with a wet cloth or sponge soaked in a solution of warm water and baking

soda. Remove the shelves and salad bins and wash with warm, soapy water. Clean the exterior of the

unit using a damp cloth, but do not use baking soda on the stainless steel.

3. Remove the plastic top cover by removing the 2 screws in the back, then unscrew the two screws

from the top hinge and remove the hinge and upper door from the unit. Set them aside.

4. Remove the 2 screws from the middle hinge between the 2 doors. Take care to keep the plastic

washers for the other side of the hinge.

5. Flip the middle hinge over and secure to the opposite side of the unit by inserting the two screws

through the hinge bracket. Do not tighten at this step

6. Slide the top door onto the middle hinge.

7. Install the top hinge on the other side of the unit by inserting the two screws through the hinge and

into the top of the unit. Do not tighten at this step.

8. Check that the upper door is properly aligned and tighten the screws in the hinges.

9. Slide the bottom door into the middle hinge and screw the bottom hinge into place.

10.Check that the door is aligned horizontally and vertically and that the seals are closed on all sides

before securely tightening the bottom hinge screws.

Operation

Installation Checklist before Operation

Temperature Control

Freezing Fresh Food

Food Storage

1. Have all packing materials and tape been removed from the interior and exterior of the refrigerator?

2. Have the installation instructions been followed, including connecting the machine to electricity?

And has proper grounding been installed for the refrigerator?

3. Has the machine been leveled?

4. Is the refrigerator in a site where the ambient temperature is between 50°F and 90°F all year

round?

5. Is there a clearance of at least 8” on either side, 6” at the rear, and 8” above the refrigerator?

6. Has the refrigerator been thoroughly cleaned prior to use?

The temperature in the refrigerator and freezer is controlled by a thermostat control knob located

inside the unit. Turn the thermostat control knob clockwise or counterclockwise to regulate the

temperature inside both zones. The markings on the control knobs indicate the “MIN, MED, MAX, and

OFF” positions. The temperature decreases from high to low, with the MIN position being the warmest

and the MAX position being the coldest.

When using the refrigerator for the rst time or after defrosting, turn the temperature control to “MAX”

for at least two hours before storing food or beverages inside.

Ensure that your freezing operations are carried out under the most hygienic conditions as freezing

alone does not sterilize the food. It is advisable to freeze large amounts of food by packing it into

separate meal portions and not in bulk form. Never put hot or even warm food into the unit. Prior to

storing frozen food, pack it in plastic bags, aluminum sheets, or freezing containers and then put it in

the freezer. Never ll the freezer completely, as frost will accumulate on your food.

• Cooked meats or sh should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats or sh to avoid bacterial

transfer. Keep raw meat or sh in a container large enough to collect juices and cover it properly.

Place the container on the lowest shelf.

• Leave space around your food to allow air to circulate inside the unit. Ensure all parts of the unit

are kept cool.

• To prevent transfer of avors and drying out, pack or cover food separately. Fruit and vegetables

do not need to be wrapped.

• Always let pre-cooked food cool down before placing it in the unit. This will help to maintain the

internal temperature.

• To prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the number of times you open the door, and close it quickly.
