FIRST STEPS This Use & Care Guide provides general operating instructions for your model. Use the unit only as instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before starting the unit, follow these important first steps. Location Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical outlet. For the most efficient operation, the appliance should be located where surrounding temperatures will not exceed 110°F (43°C). Temperatures of 32°F (0°C) and below will NOT affect operation. Additional compressor heaters are not recommended. Allow space around the unit for good air circulation. Leave a 3 inch (75 mm) space on all sides of the unit for adequate circulation. 3" (75 mm) Air space CAUTION To allow door to close and seal properly, DO NOT let food packages extend past the front of shelves. Removing/Reversing Door Tools required: Phillips screwdriver, flat head screwdriver, hexagonal spanner. Two people should handle assembling the unit. • Ensure the unit is unplugged and empty. • To take the door off, tilt the unit backwards. Rest the unit on something solid so it will not slip during the door reversing process. • Save all parts to reinstall the door. • To prevent damaging the coolant system, do not lay the unit flat. 1.

Temperatures as much as 30° F warmer than room temperature can be expected. For this reason it is particularly important in hotter climates to allow enough space for air circulation around your appliance. Leveling The appliance must have all bottom corners resting firmly on a solid floor. The floor must be strong enough to support a fully loaded unit.  NOTE It is VERY IMPORTANT for your appliance to be level in order to function properly. If the unit is not leveled during installation, the lid may be misaligned and not close or seal properly, causing cooling, frost or moisture problems. 4 2. Remove top cover and thermostat knob.
