Read all instructions before using the refrigerator-freezer.
DANGER or WARNING: Risk of child entrapment.Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerator-freezers are still dangerous. . . even if they will “just sit in the garage a days.”
Before you throw away your old refrigerator-freezer: Take off the doors. Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the refrigerator-freezer.
Never clean refrigerator-freezer parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Before Using Your Appliance
- Remove the exterior and interior packing.
- Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:

Ÿ 2 Refrigerator Shelves

Ÿ 1 Vegetable Crispers
Ÿ 1 Glass Crisper Cover
Ÿ 1 Freezer Shelf
Ÿ 1 Instruction Manual

Before connecting the unit to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

Installation of Your Appliance

Place your refrigerator-freezer on a floor that is strong enough to support the refrigerator-freezer when it is fully loaded. To level your refrigerator-freezer, adjust the leveling legs at the bottom of unit.
ALLOW 5 INCHES OF SPACE BETWEEN THE BACK AND SIDES OF THE UNIT, WHICH ALLOWS THE PROPER AIR CIRCULATION TO COOL THE COMPRESSOR AND CONDENSER.
Locate the unit away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the refrigerator- freezer not to perform properly.
Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
Plug the unit into an exclusive properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized Avanti Products service center.

Electrical Connection

Warning~
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized Avanti Products service center.
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied.
This appliance requires a standard 115Volts~/60Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground.
The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.
Never unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle.
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance.

EXTENSION CORD
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do not use an extension cord with this unit. However, if you must use an extension cord it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL- Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.
surge protector

Most electrical appliances use a series of electric control boards to operate. These boards are very susceptible to power surges and could be damaged or destroyed.
If the appliance is going to be used in an area or if your city / country is prone to power surges / outages; it is suggested that you use a power surge protector for all electrical devices / appliances you use. The surge protector that you select must have a surge block high enough to protect the appliance it is connected to. If you have any questions regarding the type and size of surge protector needed contact a licensed electrician in your area.
Damages due to power surges are not considered a manufacturer covered defect and will void your product warranty.

OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE

Setting the Temperature Control

Your unit has only one control for regulating the temperature in the compartment. The temperature control is located on the upper right hand side of the compartment.
The first time you turn the unit on, set the temperature control to “7”. The range of the temperature control is from position “0” to “7”. After 24 to 48 hours, adjust the temperature control to the setting that best suits your needs. The setting of “5” should be appropriate for home or office use.
To turn the refrigerator off, turn the temperature control to ”0”.

NOTE

Turning the temperature control to “0” position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut off the power to the unit.
If the unit is unplugged, has lost power, or is turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the unit will not start.

Interior Light
When you open the door the light will be ON automatically. When you close the door the light will turn OFF automatically.

NOTE

IF THE UNIT IS UNPLUGGED, HAS LOST POWER, OR IS TURNED OFF, YOU MUST WAIT 3 TO 5 MINUTES BEFORE RESTARTING THE UNIT. IF YOU ATTEMPT TO RESTART BEFORE THIS TIME DELAY, THE REFRIGERATOR-FREEZER WILL NOT START.

NOTE:
WE DO NOT RECOMMEND THE INSTALLATION OF THE REFRIGERATOR WHERE THE TEMPERATURE WILL DROP BELOW 50ºF (13ºC) OR RISE ABOVE 110ºF (43ºC). THE COMPRESSOR WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN PROPER TEMPERATURES INSIDE THE REFRIGERATOR.
FOR INSTALLATIONS WHERE THE TEMPERATURES WILL DROP BELOW 50º SET THE FREEZER TEMPERATURE CONTROL TO THE “COLDEST” SETTING. THIS WILL IMPROVE THE OPERATIONS OF THE REFRIGERATOR UNDER THESE CONDITIONS.

Defrosting Your Refrigerator
When? For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the freezer compartment when the frost on the refrigerator walls is excessive or ¼ inch thick.
There is no need to defrost the refrigerator compartment, because ice depositing on the inner back wall is defrosted automatically. Ice may deposit on the inner back wall during the compressor operation; later on, when the compressor is not operating the ice will defrost and the water drops collect and drain through the outlet in the inner back wall into the drain pan situated above the compressor, from where is evaporates.

How?

Reset the thermostat to the “0” position and disconnect the power supply.
Remove the frozen food from the refrigerator and place it in a cooler to protect the food.
Leave the door open for a while so that you can easily scrap off the frost.
Use a plastic scraper but be careful not to damage the inner surfaces of the freezer.
Wipe up the scraped off frost and ice before it is completely defrosted.

CAUTION: Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In addition, never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils and will void the warranty. We recommend using a plastic scraper.

Freezing Fresh Foods

Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed food, correct temperature and taking into account hygienic precautions will substantially influence the quality of freezing the food or storing of the frozen foods.
This compartment is designed for the long-term storage of frozen food.
The storage life of frozen foods varies and the recommended storage time should not be exceeded.
Pre-packed commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen foods manufacturer’s instructions for a three star frozen food storage compartment or home freezer.
Place frozen food into the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase. If there are instructions on the packet, carefully follow these instructions regarding storage times.
Carefully select food you intend to freeze, it should be of adequate quality and suitable for freezing.
Use correct packaging and wrap it tight.
The packaging should be airtight and shouldn’t leak since this could cause substantial vitamin loss and dehydration of foods.
Foils and bags should be soft enough to tightly wrap around the foods.
When preparing foods to be frozen, consider sanitary precautions.
Mark packages with following data: kind and amount of foods and the date of loading.
It is extremely important that the food is frozen as quickly as possible.
If the loading amount is too large, the quality of freezing is reduced which affects the quality of frozen foods.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Reversing the Door Swing of Your Appliance
This refrigerator-freezer has the capability of the door opening from either the left or right side. The unit is delivered to you with the door opening from the left side. Should you desire to reverse the opening direction, please call service for reversal instructions.

Changing the Light Bulb

Unplug the AC power cord from the wall.
Squeeze the tabs at the top and bottom of the light bulb cover simultaneously.
Remove the light bulb cover.
Unscrew the bulb.
Replace with a 10 watts bulb that is the same shape and size.
Replace the light bulb cover.

Cleaning Your Appliance

Unplug the unit, and remove the food and baskets.
Wash the inside with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
Wash the baskets with a mild detergent solution.
The outside of the unit should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.

CAUTION
Failure to unplug the refrigerator-freezer could result in electrical shock or personal injury.

Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your refrigerator-freezer if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your food.

Vacation Time
Short vacations: Leave the unit operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all food and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary

Moving Your Appliance

Remove all the food.
Securely tape down all loose items inside your unit.
Turn the leveling screws up to the base to avoid damage.
Tape the door shut.
Be sure the unit stays in the upright position during transportation.

Energy Saving Tips

The unit should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in the unit. Overloading the unit forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the freezer.
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
