Product Usage Instructions:

Getting Started:

Thank you for choosing the Marvel undercounter refrigeration
product. To begin using your appliance, please follow the steps
outlined below:

Step 1: Unpacking Your Appliance

Before starting the installation process, ensure that you have
unpacked the appliance carefully to avoid any damage during
handling. Follow these guidelines:

Use two or more people to move the product to prevent personal
injury due to excessive weight.
Remove all internal packing materials and tape holding internal
components in place.

Step 2: Inspection

Thoroughly inspect the appliance to ensure it is in good
condition. Keep the carton and packaging until inspection is
complete. In case of damage, retain the packaging as proof for
transit-related claims.

Step 3: Placement

If the appliance was not stored upright during shipping, allow
it to sit in an upright position for at least 24 hours before
plugging it in. This step ensures proper oil flow back to the
compressor and prevents internal damage.

FAQ:

Q: What should I do if I notice any damage to the appliance

during unpacking?

A: If you observe any damage to the appliance
during unpacking, retain the packaging for evidence and contact
Marvel Technical Support immediately for further assistance.

A: You can share images of your Marvel product
in its new home by emailing them to
marketing@marvelrefrigeration.com. Marvel may feature your design
on their website and social media platforms.

Q: Why is it important to let the appliance sit upright for 24

hours before plugging it in?

A: Allowing the appliance to sit upright for 24
hours helps ensure that the oil returns to the compressor,
preventing potential damage to internal components when the
appliance is powered on.

A grounded 115 volt, 15 amp dedicated circuit is required.
This product is factory equipped with a power supply cord that has a three- pronged, grounded plug. It must be plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances (see figure below). If the circuit does not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the responsibility and obligation of the customer to provide the proper power supply. The third ground prong should not, under any circumstances, be cut or removed.

NOTE
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are prone to nuisance tripping which will cause the appliance to shut down. GFCI’s are generally not used on circuits with power equipment that must run unattended for long periods of time, unless required to meet local building codes and ordinances.
! WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
· Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. They can be hazardous and can degrade product performance.
· This appliance should not, under any circumstances, be installed to an ungrounded electrical supply.
· Do not remove the grounding prong from the power cord.
