Do not use harsh cleaners on these surfaces. • Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments, which can scratch the appliance surface when removing adhesive labels. Any glue left from the tape can be removed with a mixture of warm water and mild detergent, or touch the residue with the sticky side of tape already removed. Do not remove the serial plate. • Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the refrigerator. This cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit. • Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible. SETTING THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL COOL DOWN PERIOD For safe food storage, allow 4 hours for the refrigerator to cool down completely.The refrigerator will run continuously for the first several hours. TEMPERATURE CONTROL The temperature control is located inside the refrigerator.The temperature is factory preset to provide satisfactory food storage temperatures. However, the temperature control is adjustable to provide a range of temperatures for your personal satisfaction. If a colder temperature is desired, turn the temperature control knob toward COLDEST and allow several hours for temperatures to stabilize between adjustments. DOOR REMOVAL If door must be removed : 1. Gently lay refrigerator on its back, on a rug or blanket. 2. Remove two base screws and base panel. Remove wire clips on bottom of cabinet. 3. Remove bottom hinge screws. 4. Remove plastic top hinge cover. 5. Remove screws from top hinge. 6. Remove top hinge from cabinet. 7. Remove door and bottom hinge from cabinet. 8.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS • Install the refrigerator in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight and away from heating ducts or registers. Do not place the refrigerator next to heat- producing appliances such as a range, oven or dishwasher. • Level the refrigerator so the door close tightly. • Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold air vents. Doing so causes the refrigerator to run longer and use more energy. Shelves should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the refrigerator less efficient, which could cause food spoilage. 4
