POSITIONING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Place your refrigerator in a location that lets the doors open fully and allows for air circulation. The refrigerator is 66.9 in. (170 cm) high, 27.9 in. (70.8 cm) wide, and 30.8 in. (78.3 cm) deep.

The doors open at a 135° angle and need 29.3 in. (74.6 cm) in front to open fully.

You must have no less than 2 in. (5 cm) of space to the sides, above, and behind the refrigerator.

  • Do not place near heat, direct sunlight, or locations where the temperature will rise above 110°F (43°C). Cookers, radiators, out-buildings, or direct sunlight may increase energy use or affect the acrylic coating. In high ambient temperatures, the compressor will not be able to maintain proper temperature inside the refrigerator.

  • Do not place in a location where the temperature will drop below 50°F (10°C). The compressor may not be able to maintain proper temperature inside the refrigerator.

  • Do not place the refrigerator in moist or watery places. Do not put your refrigerator in moist places easy to be splashed with water.

  • Place your refrigerator on a hard, level surface.

    • To level your refrigerator, turn its front feet to raise (clockwise) or lower (counterclockwise) them.

    • If your refrigerator is not level, the door may not close properly

  • Your refrigerator is designed only for household use
    and similar applications.

    • Staff kitchen areas in shops, offices, and other working environments
    • Farm houses and by clients in hotels, motels, and other residential-type environments;
    • Bed-and-breakfast-type environments

TURNING ON YOUR REFRIGERATOR

WARNING: Electrical Connections

  • This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety.
  • This refrigerator’s power cord is equipped with a three-prong plug which connects to standard threeprong 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 refrigerator requires a standard 115/120V AC 60 Hz electrical grounded outlet with three prongs. Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure that the outlet is properly grounded.
  • When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3- prong wall outlet.
  • The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.
  • The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheating.
  • Never unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle.
  • Immediately repair or replace all power cords that are frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.

WARNING: Extension Cords

  • Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do not use an extension cord with this appliance.

  • If an extension cord is needed, you must use a UL/CUL-listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord that has a grounding-type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.
    WARNING: Surge Protectors

  • 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 your refrigerator is going to be used in an area prone to power surges/outages, it is suggested that you use a power surge protector for all electrical devices/appliances that 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.

  1. After moving your refrigerator or reversing the doors, wait two hours before turning it on. This reduces the chance of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling and transportation.
  2. Plug your refrigerator’s power cord into a grounded power outlet. Your refrigerator automatically turns on.
  3. Set the refrigerator and freezer temperatures to RECOMMENDED. See “Adjusting the temperature” on page 11 for more detailed instructions.
  4. Let your refrigerator run for at least four hours. When your refrigerator has fully chilled, place your food in your refrigerator and freezer compartments.

ADJUSTING THE TEMPERATURE
Temperatures can vary depending on ambient temperature, frequency of door opening, and how much food is in each compartment. We recommend that you check the temperature with a thermometer to make sure that each compartment is at the desired temperature. The refrigerator temperature ranges from 32°F to 50°F (0°C to 10°C), and the freezer temperature ranges from -10°F to 10°F (-23.3°C to -12.2°C). Adjust the temperature gradually to let the temperature stabilize.

REFRIGERATOR TEMPERATURE CONTROL

REFRIGERATOR TEMPERATURE CONTROL

  • Press SET repeatedly to cycle between the refrigerator temperature settings. The temperature LEDs light up:
    • COLD: Warmest temperature
    • COLDER/RECOMMENDED: Recommended, moderate temperature (factory default)
    • COLDEST: Coldest temperature
  • To turn the refrigerator and freezer off or on, press and hold SET for three seconds.

STORING FOOD
When storing food in either your refrigerator or freezer compartment:

  • Let hot foods cool to room temperature before storing. This helps prevent the internal temperature from rising, which can result in excess electricity use and frost formation.
  • Do not overcrowd food. Instead, leave space between items for air circulation so they can be cooled effectively.
  • To prevent cross-contamination, flavor transfer, and moisture loss, food should be separately packed or covered and placed on separate shelves. Fruit and vegetables do not need to be wrapped.
  • To prevent cold air from escaping, try to limit the number of times you open the doors. When returning from shopping, sort foods to be kept in your refrigerator or freezer before opening the door. Only open the door to put food in or take it out.
  • Do not keep food past the manufacturer’s recommended expiration or best by date.

If you want, you can buy a vacuum pump that sucks extra air out of packaging.

  • Chill food in your refrigerator before freezing, if possible.
  • Do not place unfrozen food in direct contact with food that is already stored and frozen. Do not add too many unfrozen items at once.
  • You can use the space in the freezer most efficiently if you freeze liquids (or solids with liquids, such as stew) in square blocks. Pour the liquid into a plastic bag that is placed inside a square-sided container. Freeze it, then remove the bag from the container and seal the bag.
  • Do not store carbonated drinks in the freezer compartment.
  • 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.
  • If you place too much food in the freezer at once, the freezing ability is reduced which affects the quality of your frozen foods.

NAVIGATING POWER OUTAGES
If you lose power or your refrigerator stops working:

  • After the refrigerator has been turned off, unplugged, or lost power, wait 3–5 minutes before turning the refrigerator back on. If you try to turn it on before this time, the refrigerator will not start.
  • Keep the doors closed as much as possible. Even in the summer, foods inside your refrigerator can be kept for several hours.
  • Do not place additional food in your refrigerator.
  • Place a water-tight container of ice in the freezer to help keep your food cold.
  • If a power outage is planned, lower your refrigerator and freezer temperatures as much as possible an hour before the power will go out. Do not store new food during this time.

SAVING ENERGY
Follow these energy tips to help reduce your refrigerator’s energy use:

  • Install your refrigerator in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight and away from heating ducts or registers. Do not place your refrigerator next to heatproducing appliances such as a range, oven, or dishwasher.
  • Your refrigerator door should remain open only as long as necessary. Organize and label food to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
  • Do not place hot food inside your refrigerator. Instead, cool food to room temperature before storing.
  • Make sure that your refrigerator door is properly closed to avoid increased energy consumption, and the formation of excess ice or condensation inside.
  • Constantly circulating cold air keeps the temperature homogenous inside your refrigerator. For this reason, it is important to properly distribute the food and not block air vents to facilitate the flow of air.
  • Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in your refrigerator. This cuts down on moisture buildup inside your refrigerator.

MAINTAINING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

CLEANING AND CARE

  • Your refrigerator has a frost-free design that doesn’t require manual defrosting.
  • Before cleaning the interior, turn off the power and remo ve all foods, drinks, shelves, and drawers.
    • Clean your refrigerator with non-corrosive neutral detergents and a soft cloth or sponge dipped in water. Open the door to air dry before the power is turned on.
    • Clean the freezer with clean water and a dry cloth. Open the door to air dry before the power is turned on.
    • Clean trays, shelves, and drawers with noncorrosive neutral detergents and a soft cloth. Dry them with a soft cloth or let them air dry.
  • Wipe the outside cabinet with soapy water or detergent and a soft cloth, then wipe dry.
  • Check door seals regularly to make sure that they are clean and free from food particles. Clean with soapy water or diluted detergent and a soft cloth.
  • Clean dust and debris behind your refrigerator and on the ground to improve the cooling and energy savings.
  • Do not use hard brushes, steel wool, wire brushes, abrasives (such as toothpaste), organic solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, or banana oil), boiling water, acid, or alkaline items to clean refrigerator. These things may damage your refrigerator surface and interior.
  • Do not rinse directly with water or other liquids during cleaning to avoid short circuits or damage to electrical insulation.
  • Do not line the shelves with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper towels. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making your refrigerator less efficient, which could cause food spoilage.

BYour refrigerator’s LED is designed for a long life and is not user replaceable. Contact a qualified service provider to replace.

MOVING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

  • Before your refrigerator is moved:
    • Take all objects out of your refrigerator.
    • Secure the shelves, drawers, and doors with tape.
    • Tighten the leveling feet.
  • After moving or reversing the door, wait two hours before turning on your refrigerator. This reduces the chance of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling and transportation.
PREPARING FOR LONG-TERM STORAGE

If your refrigerator is not going to be used for several months, turn it off, unplug it, remove all food, clean/dry it, and leave the doors open (or remove them) to prevent unpleasant smells or mold
