18 Cu. Ft. Top Mount Refrigerator • Locate the refrigerator in your home or garage away from direct sunlight because it may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. To ensure optimal performance, install in areas with an ambient temperature between 41° F (5° C) and 109° F (42.8° C). • Avoid locating the refrigerator in moist areas. • The refrigerator door must be able to swing fully open. Leveling your refrigerator • It is very important for the refrigerator to be level. If the refrigerator is not leveled during installation, the doors may not close or seal properly, causing cooling, frost, or moisture problems. • To level your refrigerator, rotate the leveling feet clockwise (to raise) the refrigerator or counter-clockwise (to lower). Note: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator helps to take some weight off the leveling foot, making it easier to adjust. Providing proper ventilation Place the refrigerator at least five inches from the wall to ensure proper airflow to the compressor. Do not place the refrigerator near any heat sources, such as a heater or stove, as this may put a strain on the compressor. Providing a proper power supply Check your local power source. This refrigerator requires a 110V-120 V, 60 Hz power supply. Use a receptacle that accepts the grounding prong. The power cord is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this refrigerator. Using a 3-prong plug and outlet Using a grounding adapter 3-prong receptacle Grounding lead Screw Receptacle 3-prong plug Receptacle box cover Grounding adapter Receptacle box cover Notes: • The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating plate. • Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet. www.insigniaproducts.com 7
