> Installation of your unit

This refrigerating appliance is not intended to be used as a built-in appliance.
- Place your appliance on surface able to support the device once it is fully charged. To level your device, adjust the adjustable feet under the cooler.

• Allow 15cm of space between the back and sides of the unit, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser.
• An average ambient temperature must be observed. This temperature is specific according to the climatic class of the device:

Climatic class	Maximum ambient temperature	Maximum ambient humidity
CC1	25°C	60%
CC2	32°C	65%
CC3	40°C	75%

Your appliance is of climate class CC2 (maximum temperature and humidity are equal to +32^ and 65% ambient humidity). This climatic class is indicated on the rating label located inside your showcase (class 4).

• Avoid locating the unit in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to form quickly on the interior surface requiring more frequent defrosting of the unit.

• Plug the unit 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 Avanti Products service center.

4. USE INSTRUCTIONS

Setting the temperature control

First use

• Since the temperature is nearly the same as the ambient temperature when the appliance operates for the first time. In generally, it takes 2 hours to enable the temperature inside to reach such one, which can stop motor running automatically.
  After working for 2 hours with the reference of the following instructions, adjust the temperature control to a suitable position and close the door, then the appliance can come to normal work. (Thermostat controls compressor to stop and start automatically.)

Different thermostat positions:

Thermostat setting is the most optimum adjustment in products with mechanical thermostat in factory defaults. It is recommended not to be replaced as long as it is not troubled with the inter product temperature. If you think that the product is not in desired temperature range you can make thermostat adjustment.

Appliance thermostat has 7 settings, position "7" on the thermostat shall decrease the internal temperature to the minimum level. The appliance assures that temperature is maintained as long as it is in operation and that it is used in normal conditions of use. The temperature inside the appliance can be influenced by many factors: ambient temperature, sun exposure, number of door opening and amount of beverages stored... The slight changes in temperature are perfectly normal.

• Setting to 1: the temperature range of the interior of the showcase is 10 12^ C .

This showcase is intended exclusively for the storage of non-perishable packaged beverages.

We remind you that the storage of foodstuffs must comply with regulatory storage temperatures established by the National Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health and Safety (ANSES). Failure to respect these storage temperatures involves risks of poisoning and food waste.

Change the lamp

This appliance consists of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). This type of diode cannot be changed by the consumer. The lifetime of these LEDs is normally sufficient for no change to be made. If however, and despite all the care taken during the manufacture of your appliance, the LEDs were defective, please contact your after-sales service for any intervention.

5. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning and defrosting your unit

Your cooler is devised with an automatic defrosting system. Defrost water accumulates in the channel underneath the evaporator. It is then carried to the drip tray by the help of a hose where it evaporates.

However, after the cooler working for some time, frost will form on the surface of the evaporator. The thicker the frost is, the hotter resistance is. The hot resistance will reduce the effect of the refrigerant. Please defrost, when the frost is thicker than 5mm

• Please set the control knob to "0" and disconnect the power supply before defrosting the cooler.
  The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
• Open the door, and take out the beverages. Knock the frost gently. Wait until the defrost water is drained. Please clean with soft cloth dipping with warm water or neutral soap liquid. Be sure to wipe with pure water after using neutral soap liquid.
• Never attempt to scrape/remove ice /frost with sharp objects (such as knives, shovels, etc.). On the evaporator will be broken down.
  After defrosting, connect the cooler to the power supply and wait 2 hours before filling it again

CAUTION

Failure to unplug the unit could result in electrical shock or personal injury.

• In order to optimize the energy consumption of your appliance, it is recommended to dust the condenser located at the backside of your device.

Power failure

Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your unit if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be 0 for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your beverages.

> Moving your unit

Unplug your appliance.
- Remove all the beverage.
Tape the door shut.
- Be sure the unit stays in the upright position during transportation.
