Critical Installation Warnings:

The installation of this appliance MUST be performed by a qualified technician or service company.

Failing to have a qualified technician or service company install the refrigerator may result in electric shock, fire, an explosion, problems with the product or injury.

Before Using Your Refrigerator:

  • Remove all of the exterior and interior packaging.
  • Before connecting the refrigerator to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4-hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from improper handling during transportation.
  • Clean the interior surface using lukewarm water and a soft cloth.

Installing Your Refrigerator:

  • Place your refrigerator on a floor that is strong enough to support the refrigerator when it is fully loaded.
  • We recommend you allow 2-inches of space between the back of the refrigerator for proper air ventilation. Adjust the feet to keep the refrigerator level.
  • Locate the refrigerator away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. Direct sunlight may affect the coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption.
  • Avoid locating the refrigerator in moist areas.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire or electrical shock.

Location Requirements:

IMPORTANT: This refrigerator is designed for indoor, household use, not commercial.

DO NOT install refrigerator in a location that is exposed to water or direct sunlight.

To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, allow 1” (2.5 cm) of space on each side and between the top of the refrigerator and overhead cabinets. Allow 2” (5 cm) of space behind the refrigerator. If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space at the back for the water line connections. When installing your refrigerator next to a fixed wall, leave a 3¹⁄₈” (8 cm) minimum space on the hinge side to allow the door to swing open.

NOTE: This refrigerator is intended for use in a location where the temperature ranges from a minimum of 55°F (13°C) to a maximum of 110°F (43°C). The preferred room temperature range for optimum performance, which reduces electricity usage and provides superior cooling, is between 60°F (15°C) and 90°F (32°C). It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator near a heat source, such as an oven or radiator.


Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion or fire.

Reversing the door position

  • To avoid serious injury or death from electrical shock, disconnect main DC power before you reverse the door.

  • To remove the door, you have to tilt your refrigerator backwards. To avoid personal injury and property damage, get another person to tilt your refrigerator while you reverse the door.
    You can also lean your refrigerator against something solid, like a chair, just below the top panel.

Leveling your refrigerator

  • Your refrigerator must be level in order to function correctly. If your refrigerator isn’t leveled during installation, the door may not close or seal correctly and cause cooling, frost, or moisture problems.
  • To level your refrigerator, turn the leveling foot clockwise to raise a side of your refrigerator or turn it counter-clockwise to lower a side.

Note: Having someone push against the top of your refrigerator helps to take some weight off the leveling foot and makes it easier to adjust.

Operating Your Refrigerator

Setting the thermostat

Note: Your refrigerator’s temperature ranges from 32° to 46.4°F (0° to 8°C).
The temperature control knob is located on the right side of the fridge.

Temperature Options:

To turn the refrigerator on and begin cooling, turn the knob clockwise.
The coldest setting is the “MAX” position. The unit will operate automatically at the set position. If the unit is unplugged, power is lost, or turned off, you must wait 3-5 minutes before restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time the refrigerator will not start.

Thermostat Knob

Thermostat Knob

IMPORTANT:

  • The recommended temperature setting is the “MID” setting. If you want the temperature warmer or colder, please turn the knob and adjust the setting accordingly.

  • High ambient temperatures combined with the coldest temperature position (MAX) can cause the compressor to run continuously and/or non-stop.
    When the refrigerator is in use, the compressor needs to turn off and on to ensure it is defrosting properly. We recommend you avoid setting and leaving the the refrigerator in the ”MAX” setting only.’

  • If you notice a build-up of frost in your refrigerator, please adjust the temperature knob.

Setting the Temperature Control, Continued:

  • If the unit is unplugged, has lost power or is turned off you MUST wait 3-5 minutes before restarting the unit. Should you attempt to restart the unit, before this time delay, the refrigerator will not start.
  • We DO NOT recommend the installation of this refrigerator where the temperature will drop below 50° F or rise above 110° F. The compressor will not maintain ideal temperatures inside the refrigerator.
  • When installing in locations where the temperatures will drop below 50° F set the freezer temperature control to the “COLDEST” setting. This will help to improve the operations of the refrigerator under these conditions.

Cleaning the Interior:

Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water and a cloth. This will remove the typical “new product smell.” Be sure to dry thoroughly.

IMPORTANT:
DO NOT use detergents or abrasive powders to clean your appliance, this will damage the finish.

Refrigerating Foods:

  • For best results, DO NOT store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator.
  • Make sure to cover foods that have strong flavors and odors.
  • Cooked foods and cold dishes should be covered prior to placing them on any shelf.
  • Fruit and vegetables should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the ForeverFresh crisper drawers.
  • Butter and cheeses should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminum foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
