READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

THIS REFRIGERATOR.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

Do not store or use gasoline, or other flammable vapors and

liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Read

product labels for flammability and other warnings.

CHILD SAFETY

• Destroy carton, plastic bags, and any exterior wrapping

material immediately after the refrigerator is unpacked.

Children should never use these items to play. Cartons

covered with rugs, bedspreads, plastic sheets or

stretch wrap may become airtight chambers, and can

quickly cause suffocation.

• Remove all staples from the carton. Staples can cause

severe cuts, and destroy finishes if they come in

contact with other appliances or furniture.

• An empty, discarded ice box, refrigerator, or freezer is a

very dangerous attraction to children.

• Remove and discard any spacers used to secure the

shelves during shipping. Small objects are a choke

hazard to children.

TABLE OF CONTENTS IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Proper Disposal ofYour

Refrigerator/Freezer

Risk of child

entrapment. Child entrapment and

suffocation are not problems of the

past. Junked or abandoned

refrigerators or freezers are still

dangerous — even if they will sit for

"just a few days." If you are getting

rid of your old refrigerator or freezer,

please follow the instructions below to

help prevent accidents.

BEFORE YOU THROW AWAY YOUR

OLD REFRIGERATOR/FREEZER:

• Remove

doors.

• Leave shelves in

place so children

may not easily

climb inside.

Remove the door(s) of any appliance that is not in use,

even if it is being discarded.

for your model. Use your refrigerator only as instructed in

this guide.These instructions are not meant to cover every

possible condition and situation that may occur. Common

sense and caution must be practiced when installing,

operating, and maintaining any appliance.

RecordYour Model and Serial Numbers

7. To replace door, reverse above order.

FIRST STEPS

This Owner’s Guide provides specific operating instructions

for your model. Use the refrigerator only as instructed in this

Owner’s Guide. Before starting the refrigerator, follow

these important first steps.

INSTALLATION

• Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical outlet.

Do Not use an extension cord or an adapter plug.

• For the most efficient operation, the refrigerator should

be located where surrounding temperatures will not drop

below 10° F (-12° C) or exceed 110° F (43° C).The

Freeze Control Feature is designed to automatically

maintain the selected interior refrigerator temperature

within these boundaries.

•

Allow space around the unit for good air circulation.

Leave a 3 inch (75 mm) space on all sides of the

refrigerator for adequate circulation.

NOTE: The exterior walls of the refrigerator may become

quite warm as the compressor works to transfer heat from

the inside. Temperatures as much as 30° F warmer than

room temperature can be expected. For this reason it is

particularly important in hotter climates to allow enough

space for air circulation around your refrigerator.

LEVELING

The refrigerator must have all bottom corners resting firmly

on a solid floor. The floor must be strong enough to support

a fully loaded refrigerator. NOTE: It is Very Important for

your refrigerator to be level in order to function properly. If

the refrigerator is not leveled during installation, the door

may be misaligned and not close or seal properly, causing

cooling, frost, or moisture problems.

To LevelYour Refrigerator:

After discarding crating screws and wood base, use a

carpenter’s level to level the refrigerator from front-to-back.

Adjust the plastic leveling feet in front, ½ bubble higher, so

that the door closes easily when left halfway open.

CLEANING

• Wash any removable parts of the refrigerator interior, and

exterior with mild detergent and warm water.Wipe dry.

Do not use harsh cleaners on these surfaces.

• Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments,

which can scratch the appliance surface when removing

adhesive labels. Any glue left from the tape can be

removed with a mixture of warm water and mild deter-

gent, or touch the residue with the sticky side of tape

already removed. Do not remove the serial plate.

Unpacking and Leveling

Installation

ENGLISH

INTERIOR LIGHT

The light comes on automatically when the door is opened.

To replace the light bulb, turn the temperature control to

OFF and unplug the electrical cord. Replace the old bulb

with a bulb of the same wattage.

ADJUSTABLE INTERIOR SHELVES

Multi-position

adjustable interior

shelves can be

moved to any

position for larger or

smaller packages.

The shipping

spacers that

stabilize the shelves

for shipping should

be removed and

discarded.

AUTOMATIC FREEZE CONTROL

The Freeze Control Feature will maintain proper interior

refrigerator temperature even when the refrigerator is

placed in an area where the surrounding temperature drops

down to 10° F (-12° C).

COOL DOWN PERIOD

For safe food storage, allow 4 hours for the refrigerator to

cool down completely.The refrigerator will run continuously

for the first several hours.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

The temperature control is located inside the refrigerator

compartment.The temperature is

factory preset to provide satisfac-

tory food storage temperatures.

However, the temperature control is

adjustable to provide a range of

temperatures for your personal

satisfaction. If a colder temperature

is desired, turn the temperature

control knob toward COLDEST and

allow several hours for temperatures

to stabilize between adjustments.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

• Install the refrigerator in the coolest part of the room,

out of direct sunlight and away from heating ducts or

registers. Do not place the refrigerator next to heat-

producing appliances such as a range, oven or

dishwasher.

• Level the refrigerator so the doors close tightly.

• Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold air

vents. Doing so causes the refrigerator to run longer

and use more energy. Shelves should not be lined with

aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling. Liners

interfere with cold air circulation, making the refrigerator

less efficient, which could cause food spoilage.

• Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing

them in the refrigerator. This cuts down on moisture

build-up inside the unit.

• Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings.

Remove as many items as needed at one time and

close the door as soon as possible.

ENGLISH

CLEANING THE INSIDE

Wash inside surfaces of the refrigerator with a solution of

two tablespoons of baking soda in one quart (1.136 litres)

warm water. Rinse and dry. Wring excess water out of the

sponge or cloth when cleaning in the area of the controls, or

any electrical parts.

Wash the removable parts with the baking soda solution

mentioned above, or mild detergent and warm water. Rinse

and dry. Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes,

abrasive cleaners, or alkaline solutions on any surface. Do

not wash removable parts in a dishwasher.

CLEANING THE OUTSIDE

Wash the cabinet with warm water and mild liquid deter-

gent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.

Replace parts and food.

VACATION AND MOVING TIPS

Vacations:

If the refrigerator will not be used for several months:

• Remove all food and unplug the power cord.

• Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.

• Leave the refrigerator door open slightly, blocking it open

if necessary, to prevent odor and mold growth.

Moving: When moving the refrigerator, follow these guide-

lines to prevent damage:

• Disconnect the power cord plug from the wall outlet.

• Remove foods and clean the refrigerator.

• Secure all loose items by taping them securely in place

to prevent damage.

• In the moving vehicle, secure refrigerator in an upright

position to prevent movement. Also protect outside of

refrigerator with a blanket, or similar item.

CARE AND CLEANING If leaving the refrigerator

door open while on vacation, make

certain that children cannot get into the

refrigerator and become entrapped.
