Important Safety Instructions

• Read all instructions before using the appliance.
• Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned appliances are still dangerous... even if they will "just sit in the garage a few days."
  • Before you throw away your old beverage center:

take off the door, leave the shelves in place, so that children may not easily climb inside.

• Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the appliance.
• Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire or explosion.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Before Using Your beverage center

• Remove the exterior and interior packing, including protective foam on door panels.
• Check to be sure the following parts are included:

- 3 slide out shelves

- 1 Instruction manual

• Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.
• Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

Installation of Your beverage center

• Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support the appliance when it is fully loaded. To level your appliance, adjust the legs at the front of the appliance.
• Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the appliance, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the compressor.
• 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 appliance not to perform properly.

- Avoid locating the appliance in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to form quickly on the evaporator.

- 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 or an authorized Kelvinator Products service center.

Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized Kelvinator Products service center.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
