INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Initial Use
• Remove the exterior and interior packing.
•
Before connecting power, allow unit to stand upright for 2 hours. This allows the refrigerant to settle
and reduce the possibility of malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.
• Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
• Install the handle on the left side of the door (if you wish to reverse the door, please first reverse
the door according to instructions below, then install handle on the right).
Placement
• This appliance is designed for free standing or built-in (full recessed) installation.
• Place the appliance on a floor that is flat and strong enough to support it when fully loaded. To level
the appliance, adjust the front leveling legs at the bottom of the unit.
•
Locate the appliance 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 unit not to perform properly.
• Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
• Plug the appliance 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.
Defrosting:
While operating, the appliance will defrost once every 8 hours. The defrosting process lasts
approximately 30 minutes. Water will collect in the evaporator drip tray and is automatically evaporated.
During the defrosting process, the temperature displayed may be higher than the set temperature.
Note: Water condensation may appear on the outer surface of the glass door. This occurs when water
molecules within the air comes in contact with the cold surface of the glass door. The vapor condenses
on the glass surface and can cause a foggy effect or in extreme situations, water droplets. This
indicates high humidity in the environment, simply wipe off the water condensation with a soft cloth.
