HOW TO OPERATE Starting Your New Refrigerator 1. Clean the refrigerator thoroughly. Wipe the outside with a soft dry cloth, the interior with a clean moist cloth. 2. Insert the power supply cord into the socket. 3. Turn the thermostat dial to "7". Close the doors and let the refrigerator operate for 15-20 minutes. 4. Reduce the thermostat to a mid-range setting between "3" and "5" on the thermostat control. Temperature Control To control the internal temperature, adjust the thermostat dial. "1" is the warmest setting. "7" is the coldest. The Dial may be set any place on the scale. It does not have to be set exactly on a number. Note: Wait 3-5 minutes before restarting if you unplug the refrigerator. The unit may fail to operate properly if restarted too quickly. How To Defrost Defrost the freezer compartment when the ice / frost is approximately ¼" thick. Set the thermostat dial to "0" to defrost. Remove all contents from the freezer compartment. Leave the freezer door open to allow accumulated ice / frost to melt. Remove large pieces of ice as needed. Do not use hot water or other electric heating devices to melt the accumulated ice. After defrosting, remove accumulated ice / water and wipe the freezer compartment dry with a soft cloth. Restart the unit per starting instructions. Never use a knife or other sharp metal instrument to scrape ice / frost from the inside of the unit. 5
