IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ATTENTION:
GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the
electrical current.
This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a
qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
Use an exclusive wall outlet. Do not connect your freezer to extension cords or together with any other
appliance in the same wall outlet. Do not splice the cord.
IMPORTANT WARNING
An empty freezer is a very dangerous attraction to children. Remove either the gasket, latches, lids or doors
from unused appliances, or take some other action that will guarantee it harmless.
Remove exterior and interior packings, wipe the outside thoroughly with a soft dry cloth and the inside with a
wet, lukewarm cloth. Avoid placing the cabinet in a narrow recess or near any heat source, direct sunlight, or
moisture. Let air circulate freely around the cabinet. Keep the rear of the freezer 5 inches away from the
wall.
Location
1) Select a place with a strong, level floor.
2) Allow 5 inches of space between the back of the freezer and any adjacent wall.
3) Avoid direct sunlight and heat. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating. Heat sources nearby will
cause higher electricity consumption.
4) Avoid very moist places. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to form very quickly on the
evaporator, and your freezer will have to be defrosted more frequently.
OPERATION
1
To avoid vibration, the unit must be set level. This is accomplished by adjusting the (1) front leveling leg
located under the refrigerator.
The temperature of the refrigerator is controlled by setting the thermostat knob to a desired setting.
Temperature Selection:
To start the refrigerator, turn the temperature control knob to the position corresponding to the desired cooling
(on the graduated blue dial) in Fig. A. The refrigerator temperature will vary depending on the quantity of the
food stored, and on the frequency with which the door is opened.
To turn the control to the “OFF” position, rotate the control knob to the “0” position. If the refrigerator is not
being used for long periods, disconnect the plug and leave the door partially open. This will help to reduce
mold and mildew from accumulating inside the refrigerator.
Changes in ambient room temperature will affect internal refrigerator temperatures (choose correct setting of
the thermostat knob).
In OFF (0) position, the appliance does not operate (cooling system is switched off)
yet power supply is not interrupted (the light is on when you open the refrigerator door).
