Correct Installation
Before plugging your refrigerator to a power supply
• Keep the refrigerator away from outdoor weather.
• Plug the refrigerator only in an electrical grounded wall outlet.
Make sure power supply is within the accepted standards.
• Do not store food in the refrigerator before allowing some time
for the refrigerator to cool.
• Only use the refrigerator as it’s been specifi ed in this guide.
How to install the refrigerator
Follow these steps before turning on your new refrigerator:
1. Remove all accessories and shelves from inside.
2. Place the refrigerator under the following recommendations:
• Leave a minimum space of 3” (7,5 cm) between top of the refrigerator and
the cabinets.
• Leave at least a space of 2” (5 cm) between the refrigerator condenser on
the back of the fridge and the wall.
• Leave a space of 1/2” (1,25 cm) on each side of the refrigerator to ease
installation.
• If the refrigerator will be placed against a side wall,
leave some additional space to allow the door to
open.
3. Level the refrigerator.
• Follow these instructions to rise or lower the height of
the refrigerator. See Figure 1.
• For more accuracy, check the level using a level
on top of the refrigerator. Check if the refrigerator
rocks back to front or side to side when closing and
opening the door. Adjust if needed.
• We recommend leaving the refrigerator slightly
leaned back, so the door can close by itself.
4. Let the refrigerator stand for 2 to 3 hours before
connecting to a power supply, this will allow the gas
and oil to settle before starting the cooling process
Plug the refrigerator
The voltage required for its operation is 127 V~ at a
nominal frequency of 60 Hz. Use 15 or 20 A fuses.

Instructions to connect to ground
Procedure for electrical grounding
Your refrigerator is equipped with an electric
cord provided with a 3-terminal grounding
plug. To reduce the possibility of electric
shock to a minimum, the cord must be
connected to an electrical grounded wall
outlet for 3-prong plugs. The installation
must be grounded in accordance with the
National Electric Code and all local codes
and regulations.
If there is no outlet of this type, it is the responsibility and obligation of the
customer to install a wall outlet with 3 terminals and properly grounded by a
qualifi ed electrician.
How to use the refrigerator
Adjust temperature control
Your refrigerator has 2 controls that allow you to regulate the temperature in
the refrigerator and freezer compartment independently.
When you connect for the fi rst time:
• Set the refrigerator and freezer temperature controls to the Cold Medium
position ( ). Controls range from less cold ( ) to colder ( ).
• Moving the refrigerator control to OFF
stops the freezer and refrigerator from
cooling but does not disconnect from
electricity.
• Allow the refrigerator time to cool
completely before putting food in it.
Its cooling may take several hours.
Adjust the temperature control to keep
the food as cold as you want.
The positions suggested above are the
correct ones for normal home use.
