rear of the unit.
3. A minimum of 2 inches of clearance must be
provided between the rear condenser and the wall.
Providing greater rear wall clearance when space
allows in order to improve air circulation is
recommended; in addition, leave unobstructed
space above the refrigerator and both sides.

Test Run Your Refrigerator
Before using your refrigerator, clean it and test run it to see if it is operating
properly. If it is not, then check your electrical source. If you cannot locate the
source of the problem, contact your dealer.

Temperature Control
You can Control the temperature inside your refrigerator by turning the temperature
control dial. Higher numbers mean greater cooling power, smaller numbers mean less
cooling power.

Refrigerator
Set the temperature control dial to 3 for optimum
refrigeration effects under normal conditions. Set the
temperature control dial to MAX only when the rapid
refrigeration in your refrigerator is necessary. Be sure
to set it back to 3 later on.

Freezer
For ordinary use, set the temperature control in
the “MED” position. For rapid freezing of
foodstuffs or to make ice cubes in a hurry, set the
knob to the “COLD” position. Do not forget to set
the temperature control back to “MED” once the
rapid freezing process has been completed.

Important
Do not operate your refrigerator for more than six hours at a stretch with the
temperature control dial set to 5 or MAX. At this setting, the compressor
will run continuously. Consequently, foodstuffs stored in the refrigerator
compartment will be frozen and frost will form on the cooling (evaporator)
unit.

compartment will be frozen and frost will form on the cooling (evaporator)
unit.
At the control dial setting of MIN, the freezer compartment temperature will
not remain at a sufficiently low level for ice cream and frozen foods.
Usually the cold control knob should be set at middle position.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Your refrigerator does not require any maintenance.
Turn off your refrigerator and remove all food, shelves, trays, etc. Wash
the interior liner with a solution of two tablespoons of baking soda and a
quart of warm water. Then, rinse and wipe it out. Do not use soaps,
detergents, scouring powders, spray cleaners or the like for cleaning the
interior liner. It may cause odors in the refrigerator compartment.

Cleaning the Evaporating Tray
Since dust accumulated on the evaporating tray
will decrease the evaporation efficiency, remove

The evaporating tray is set on refrigerator back.
To remove, pull it away from the unit. After
cleaning make sure to put the tray securely back
in place otherwise defrosted water may spill or
the evaporation process maybe hindered.

Hot-Line
With the freezer-refrigerator in operation, it is possible that the
cabinet will feel warm at the front edges. This does not
indicate trouble. It is attributable to the hot gas line design.
This prevents moisture from accumulating and has nothing to
do with the storage temperature inside.
