foods, particularly fruits, vegetables, and prepared foods. The eating
quality of red meats is affected less than that of many other foods. Use
refrozen foods as soon as possible, to save as much of its eating quality
as you can.”

Installing Your Refrigerator
Unpacking Your Refrigerator
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all
adhesive tape holding the refrigerator accessories inside and outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials
before powering on the refrigerator.
Leveling Your Refrigerator
• Your refrigerator has two leveling legs which are located in the front
bottom corners of your refrigerator. After properly placing your
refrigerator in its final position, you can level your refrigerator.
• Leveling legs can be adjusted by turning them clockwise to raise
your refrigerator or by turning them counterclockwise to lower your
refrigerator. The refrigerator door will close easier when the leveling
legs are extended.
Proper Air Circulation
• To ensure your refrigerator works at the maximum efficiency it was
designed for, you should install it in a location where there is proper
air circulation, plumbing and electrical connections.
• The following are recommended clearances around the refrigerator:
Sides……………3/4" (19mm)
Top....................2" (50mm)
Back..................2" (50mm)

Electrical Requirement
• Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet)
with proper grounding to power the refrigerator.
• Avoid the use of three prong adapters or cutting off the third
grounding prong in order to accommodate a two prong outlet. This is
a dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the
refrigerator and may result in shock hazard.
Use of Extension Cords
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of 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.
Installation Limitations
• Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated
or heated, e.g. garage, etc. Your refrigerator was not designed to
operate in temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit.
• Select a suitable location for the refrigerator on a hard even surface
away from direct sunlight or heat source, e.g. radiators, baseboard
heaters, cooking appliances, etc. Any floor unevenness should be
corrected with the leveling legs located on the front bottom corners of
the refrigerator.
