• Keep the original packaging carton and materials in a safe place; doing so will help prevent any damage of the appliance when it is not in use. In the event that the carton is to be disposed of, please recycle all packaging materials where possible.
• Plastic wrapping can be a suffocation hazard for babies and young children, so ensure all packaging materials are out of their reach and disposed of safely.
• Check to ensure you have all the parts pictured on the previous page spread.
• Unwind the power cord to its full length and inspect it for damage. Do not use the appliance if the appliance or its cord have been damaged or are not working properly. In case of damage, contact our customer support line for advice on examination, repair or return of the damaged product.
• Make sure the refrigerator is disconnected from the power supply before cleaning the interior surfaces and all internal accessories with lukewarm water, a soft cloth, and a mild detergent. This will remove any dust from transit and storage and help remove the typical smell of a brand new product. Then dry thoroughly.

IMPORTANT: Do not use harsh or abrasive detergents or powders as these will damage the finish.

PARTS LIST

When you receive your unit, carefully remove the exterior and interior packaging. It is recommended that you retain the packaging for future use.

Check to make sure the following parts are included:

• 4 full shelves, 1 bottom shelf
• 1 instruction manual

1. Temperature Controls (Inside)
2. Door Frame
3. Fridge Foot (x4)
4. Door Hinge
5. LED Light
6. Shelf

ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION

Before connecting the appliance to a power source, let it stand upright for approximately 24 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.

This beverage fridge is a freestanding unit and should not be built into surrounding cabinetry. Allow for proper air clearance around the fridge. The recommended clearances are as follows:

Sides: 4.5”
Top: 4″
Back:4″

Before operating your beverage fridge for the first time, follow these steps:

1. Allow the unit to sit upright for 24 hours prior to first use. Upon the first use, allow the unit to sit at the desired temperature for at least 30 minutes before changing settings or filling it with drinks.
2. Clean the interior surface of the unit with warm water and a soft cloth.
3. Handle the unit with care. Do not apply force to any parts, such as the condenser or the door. The metal rails on the bottom of the unit may be sharp, so please use caution when moving the unit. Do not tilt the unit beyond 45 degrees or drag it across the floor.
4. Place the fridge on a level surface that will be strong enough to support the unit when it is fully loaded. To level your fridge, adjust the front feet located at the bottom of the unit. If the unit is not level, the doors and magnetic seal may not work properly. (Please note that placing your fridge on carpet may result in expelled heat fading the carpet.)
5. Install the fridge away from direct sunlight and heat sources such as stoves, heaters, or radiators. Direct sunlight may affect the unit’s acrylic coating, and nearby heat sources can increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold or hot ambient temperatures may also prevent optimal performance.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT

1. Thermostat
2. Light Switch
3. Led Light

Your beverage fridge can be set to your desired temperature using the thermostat. The unit’s temperature range is 37°F to 65°F (3°C to 18°C).

The temperature scale runs from 1, the warmest setting, to 7, the coldest setting. The 0 position is an OFF setting that can be used when the beverage fridge is standing empty.

OPTIMIZING PERFORMANCE

• To ensure maximum performance and efficiency, be sure to place your beverage fridge in an area where there is proper air circulation. (See Assembly & Installation for instructions on proper clearances.)
• For proper internal air circulation, do not overfill your beverage fridge. When storing beverages, keep them away from the rear wall. To allow free circulation of cold air, don’t pack beverages too tightly on the shelves.
• Do not place the unit in direct sunlight.
• Do not place heated beverages in your fridge.
• Do not place heavy objects on top of the beverage fridge.
• Note that the unit will delay restarting for 3-5 minutes after losing power or being unplugged as a safety precaution.

FOOD STORAGE

• The fridge is suitable for short-term storage of fresh food. The temperature inside varies depending on the amount of food stored, the ambient temperature, and the frequency of door opening. Adjust the thermostat accordingly.

• In order to maintain good cooling efficiency and save energy, we recommend you do not open the door for too long or too often. Do not overload the fridge, and ensure there is enough space around items for cold air flow. Do not block ventilation openings.

• The walls of the fridge are equipped with a series of runners so that the shelves can be positioned to suit individual storage requirements.

REMOTE CONTROL INSTRUCTIONS

SAFETY AND TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION
