Energy Saving Tips  
Electrical Connections  
• Do not place your refrigerator next  
to a heating vent, a range, or in  
direct sunlight.  
Important-for personal safety, this  
appliance must be properly  
grounded.  
• Do not open door more often than  
necessary.  
• Keep the door closed as much as  
possible, especially, in hot and  
humid weather.  
• Cover foods to reduce moisture  
build up inside the refrigerator.  
• Store only foods that require refrig-  
eration.  
• For proper air circulation, do not  
overfill your refrigerator shelves.  
In the event of an electrical short cir-  
cuit, grounding reduces the risk of  
electric shock by providing an escape  
wire for the electric current. This appli-  
ance is equipped with a cord having a  
grounding wire with a  
grounding plug. The plug must be  
plugged into an outlet that is properly  
installed and grounded. Consult a  
qualified electrician or service center if  
the grounding instructions are not com-  
pletely understood. If doubt exists as to  
whether the appliance is properly  
grounded, have a qualified electrician  
check the circuit to make sure the outlet  
is properly grounded.  
Refrigerator Installation  
The refrigerator is designed for free-  
standing installation only. It should  
not be built-in. Allow a minimum of 2  
inches on each side and above the  
top of the refrigerator to ease installa-  
tion and proper air circulation. Be  
sure to install your refrigerator on a  
floor that is strong enough to support  
the unit when fully loaded.  
Do not, under any circumstances,  
cut or remove the third (ground)  
prong from the power cord.  
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS  
Avoid the use of an extension cords  
due to potential safety hazards under  
certain conditions. If it is necessary to  
use an extension cord, use only a 3-  
wire extension cord that has a 3–blade  
grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that  
will accept the plug. The marked rating  
of the extension cord must be equal to  
or greater than the electrical rating of  
the appliance.  
If the refrigerator is not leveled,  
adjust the front leveling legs by turn-  
ingclockwise to raise the refrigerator  
and counterclockwise to lower it.  
Do not install your refrigerator where  
the temperature will fall below 55°F,  
as it will not run frequently enough to  
maintain proper temperature.

Operating Your Refrigerator  
This compartment is not cold enough  
to freeze foods safely for extended  
periods of time.  
TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL  
The temperature control dial has set-  
tings from  
• “0” – “7”  
• “0” is Off  
• "1" is the warmest  
• "7" is the coldest  
• If ice cube tray freezes to the floor,  
pour a little warm water around it to  
loosen it. Do not use boiling water,  
which can damage plastic parts, or  
sharp metal objects such as a knife  
or screwdriver, which can damage  
the cooling system tubing.  
Initially, set the temperature control  
dial to "4".  
After using the refrigerator for 24  
hours, adjust the temperature control  
dial to the setting that best suits your  
needs. Turning the temperature control  
dial ‘O’ stops the cooling cycle; how-  
ever, it will not shut off power to the  
refrigerator.  
Wash tray in lukewarm water only. Do  
not wash in the dishwasher.  
DISPENSE-A-CAN  
The refrigerator has a convenient  
"Dispense-A-CanTM" storage compart-  
ment. Simply stack cans vertically,  
loading from the top and drawing  
them from the bottom.  
Important: If you unplug or turn  
off the refrigerator, allow 4 minutes  
before restarting it or re-plugging it in.  
SHELVING  
The refrigerator has shelves that can  
be adjusted to different levels that will  
suit your food storage needs. The door  
shelves provide storage for small and  
large items.  
FREEZER COMPARTMENT & USE  
OF THE ICE CUBE TRAYS  
This compartment is designed for  
making ice cubes and for short-term  
food storage (a few days at most).  
Care and Cleaning  
CLEANING THE OUTSIDE  
Clean the outside of the refrigerator  
with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.  
To clean the door gasket, use only  
mild soapy water. Never use harsh  
cleansers or a scouring pad to clean  
any part of the refrigerator. For effi-  
cient operation dirt and dust should be  
removed from the back every three  
months. Turn the temperature control  
to the "OFF" position and unplug the  
refrigerator. Carefully slide the refriger-  
ator away from the wall so as not to  
damage the floor below. Wipe dust  
from the back of refrigerator with a  
clean dry cloth use a vacuum cleaner  
with a brush attachment to clean the  
compressor area.

ing soda solution. (2 tablespoons of  
baking soda to one quart of water),

erator. Change the box every three  
months.  
Vacation and Moving  
WHEN NOT IN USE:  
MOVING THE REFRIGERATOR:  
If your refrigerator will not be used for  
a period of time turn the unit off and  
unplug it. Clean the refrigerator (see  
care and Cleaning instructions).  
When transporting the refrigerator it  
must be kept in the upright position. If  
the refrigerator is inadvertently tilted  
beyond 45 degrees, place it in the  
upright position and wait 24 hours  
before plugging in.  
Defrosting  
Defrost whenever frost on the wall of  
freezer compartment. Put the drip tray  
the freezer compartment becomes 1/8" in place and set the temperature con-  
thick. Never us a sharp or metallic  
instrument to remove frost as it may  
damage the cooling coils. (A punc-  
tured cooling coil will cause serious  
damage to the product and will void  
the warranty). We recommend using a  
plastic scraper. To defrost, remove  
foods and ice cube tray from the  
trol dial to the ‘OFF" position.  
Defrosting usually takes a few hours.  
To defrost faster, keep the door open  
and place a bowl of warm water in the  
refrigerator. After defrosting, empty  
water from the drip tray and wash the  
drip tray in warm water.
