WARNING WARNING - Help Prevent Tragedies Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous - even if they sit out for "just a few hours".If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the instructions below to help prevent acci-dents.Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:• Take off the doors or remove the drawers.• Leave the shelves in place so children may not easily climb inside.
Use two or more people to move product.Failure to do so can result in personal injury. Remove Interior Packaging Your appliance has been packed for shipment with all parts that could be damaged by movement securely fastened. Remove internal packing materials and any tape holding in-ternal components in place. The owners manual is shipped inside the product in a plastic bag along with the warranty registration card, and other accessory items. Important Keep your carton and packaging until your appliance has been thoroughly inspected and found to be in good condi-tion. If there is damage, the packaging will be needed as proof of damage in transit. Afterwards please dispose of all items responsibly.
WARNING WARNING - Dispose of the plastic bags which can be a suffocation hazard. Note to Customer This merchandise was carefully packed and thoroughly inspected before leaving our plant. Responsibility for its safe delivery was assumed by the retailer upon acceptance of the shipment. Claims for loss or damage sustained in transit must be made to the retailer. NOTE DO NOT RETURN DAMAGED MERCHANDISE TO THE MANUFACTURER - FILE THE CLAIM WITH THE RETAILER.
CAUTION If the appliance was shipped, handled, or stored in other than an upright position for any period of time, allow the ap-pliance to sit upright for a period of at least 24 hours before plugging in. This will assure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging the appliance in immediately may cause damage to internal parts.4
Select Location The proper location will ensure peak performance of your appliance. We recommend a location where the unit will be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To ensure your product performs to specications, the recom-mended installation location temperature range is from 55 to 115°F (13 to 46°C). Cabinet Clearance Ventilation is required from the bottom front of the appli-ance. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions. Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around the appliance as long as the front grille remains unobstructed. Front Grille Do not obstruct the front grille. The openings within the front grille allow air to ow through the condenser heat ex-changer. Restrictions to this air ow will result in increased energy usage and loss of cooling capacity. For this reason it is important this area not be obstructed and the grille openings kept clean (See Figure 1). The use of a custom made grille is not recommended as it may restrict air ow.Front grille screwFront grilleFigure 2Front Leveling LegsFigure 1Rear Leveling Legs Front Grille, keep this area open.
INSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE
Leveling Legs Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the appli-ance should be set so the unit is rmly positioned on the oor and level from side to side and front to back. The overall height of your appliance may be adjusted between the minimum, 33 ⁄4" (85.7 cm), by turning the leveling leg in (CW ↷) and the maximum, 34 ⁄4" (88.3 cm) by turning the leveling leg out (CCW ↶).To adjust the leveling legs, place the appliance on a solid surface and protect the oor beneath the legs to avoid scratching the oor. With the assistance of another person, lean the appliance back to access the front leveling legs. Raise or lower the legs to the required dimension by turning the legs. Repeat this process for the rear by tilting the appli-ance forward using caution. On a level surface check the appliance for levelness and adjust accordingly.The front grille screws may be loosened and the grille ad-justed to the desired height. When adjustment is complete tighten the two front grille screws. (See Figure 2).5 NOTE Figure 5
- Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. They can be hazardous and can degrade product performance.• This appliance should not, under any circumstanc-es, be installed to an un-grounded electrical supply.• Do not remove the grounding prong from the power cord. (See Figure 3).• Do not use an adapter. (See Figure 4).• Do not splash or spray water from a hose on the appliance. Doing so may cause an electrical shock, which may result in severe injury or death.
WARNING Electrical Connection A grounded 115 volt, 15 amp dedicated circuit is required.This product is factory equipped with a power supply cord that has a three-pronged, grounded plug. It must be plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in accor-dance with the National Electrical Code and applicable lo-cal codes and ordinances (see Figure 5). If the circuit does not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the responsibility and obligation of the customer to provide the proper power supply. The third ground prong should not, under any cir-cumstances, be cut or removed. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are prone to nui-sance tripping which will cause the appliance to shut down. GFCI’s are generally not used on circuits with power equip-ment that must run unattended for long periods of time, un-less required to meet local building codes and ordinances.

⁄2"(54.6 cm)Figure 6 Floor Mount Installation The anti-tip bracket is to be located on the oor in the left or right rear corner of the refrigerator as shown in Figure 6. Step by step instructions for locating the position of the bracket: 1) Decide where you want to place the refrigerator. Slide it into place, being careful not to damage the oor, leaving 1" (2.5 cm) of clearance from the rear wall to allow room for the anti-tip bracket.
2) Raise the rear leveling legs approximately
⁄4" (6 mm) to allow engagement with the anti-tip bracket. Level the unit by adjusting all the leveling legs as required. Turning the leveling leg counterclockwise will raise the unit and clock-wise will lower the unit.3) Make sure the refrigerator is in the desired location, then mark on the oor the rear and side corner of the cabinetwhere the anti-tip bracket will be installed. If the installationdoes not allow marking the rear corner of the cabinet, thenmake temporary lines on the oor marking the front corner of the cabinet, excluding the door. Slide the refrigerator out of the way. From the temporary line extend the sidewall line back 21 ⁄2" (54.6 cm) as shown in Figure 7. 4) Align the anti-tip bracket to the marks on the oor so the side of the bracket lines up with the side of the cabinet mark, and the "V" notches on the anti-tip bracket line up with the end of the 21 ⁄2" (54.6 cm) line (Rear of cabinet line).5) Fasten the anti-tip bracket to the oor using the supplied screw. (See Figure 7).6) Slide the cabinet back into position, making sure the rear cabinet leveling leg slides under the anti-tip bracket engag-ing the slot.

CA14 STAINLESS STEEL MAINTENANCE AND ENERGY SAVING TIPS Background Stainless steel does not stain, corrode, or rust as easily as ordinary steel, but it is not stain or corrosion proof. Stain- less steels can discolor or corrode if not maintained properly. Stainless steels differ from ordinary carbon steels by the amount of chromium present. It is this chromium that provides an invisible protective lm on the surface called chrome-oxide. This protective chrome-oxide lm on the sur- face can be damaged or contaminated, which may result in discoloration, staining, or corrosion of the base metal. Care & Cleaning Routine cleaning of the stainless steel surfaces will serve to greatly extend the life of your product by removing contami- nants. This is especially important in coastal areas which can expose the stainless to severe contaminants such as halide salts, (sodium chloride). It is strongly recommended to periodically inspect and thor- oughly clean crevices, weld points, under gaskets, rivets, bolt heads, and any locations where small amounts of liquid could collect, become stagnant, and concentrate contami- nates. Additionally, any mounting hardware that is showing signs of corrosion should be replaced. Frequency of cleaning will depend upon the installation location, environmental, and usage conditions. Choosing a Cleaning Product The choice of a proper cleaning product is ultimately that of the consumer, and there are many products from which to choose. Depending upon the type of cleaning and the degree of contamination, some products are better than others. Typically the most effective and efcient means for routine cleaning of most stainless steel products is to give the sur- faces a brisk rubbing with a soft cloth soaked in warm water and a gentle detergent, or mild mixture of ammonia. Rub- bing should, to the extent possible, follow the polish lines of the steel, and always insure thorough rinsing after cleaning. Although some products are called "stainless steel clean- ers," some may contain abrasives which could scratch the surface, (compromising the protective chrome-oxide lm), and some many contain chlorine bleach which will dull, tarnish or discolor the surface if not completely removed. After the stainless surfaces have been thoroughly cleaned, a good quality car wax may be applied to help maintain the nish. Note: Stainless steel products should never be installed, or stored in close proximity to chlorine chemicals. Whichever cleaning product you chose, it should be used in strict accordance with the instructions of the cleaner manufacturer. The following suggestions will minimize the cost of operating your refrigeration appliance.
1. Do not install your appliance next to a hot appliance
(cooker, dishwasher, etc.), heating air duct, or other heat sources.
2. Install product out of direct sunlight.
3. Ensure the front grille vents at front of appliance be-
neath door are not obstructed and kept clean to allow ventilation for the refrigeration system to expel heat.
4. Plug your appliance into a dedicated power circuit. (Not
shared with other appliances).
5. When initially loading your new product, or whenever
large quantities of warm contents are placed within refrigerated storage compartment, minimize door openings for the next 12 hours to allow contents to pull down to compartment set temperature.
6. Maintaining a relatively full storage compartment will
require less appliance run time than an empty compart- ment.
7. Ensure door closing is not obstructed by contents
stored in your appliance.
8. Allow hot items to reach room temperature before plac-
9. Minimize door openings and duration of door openings.
10. Use the warmest temperature control set temperature
that meets your personal preference and provides the proper storage for your stored contents.
11. When on vacation or away from home for extended
periods, set the appliance to warmest acceptable tem- perature for the stored contents.
12. Set the control to the “off” position if cleaning the ap-
pliance requires the door to be open for an extended period of time. Energy saving tips:
