it is used. See grounding instructions in the INSTALLATION section.
3. Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grasp the plug firmly and
pull straight out from the outlet.
4. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug. Return appliance to the nearest
authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
5. Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or before making any repairs. NOTE - If for any reason
this product requires service, we strongly recommend that a certified technician performs the

factory authorized service personell, so as to minimize the risk of possible ignition due to incorrect
parts or improper service.
6. Do not use any electrical device or any sharp instrument in defrosting your refrigerator.
7. DANGER – Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer, take
off the doors and leave the shelves in place to that children may not easily climb inside.
8. After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment,
particularly when hands are damp or wet. Skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
9. Do not refreeze foods that have been thawed completely. The United States Department of
Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 reads: “…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that
have thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold-below 40°F.
“…Thawed ground meats, poultry, or fish that have any off-odor or off-color should not be refrozen
and should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream should be discarded. If the odor or color of any food is
poor or questionable, discard it. The food may be dangerous to eat … Even partial thawing and
re-freezing reduce the eating quality of foods, particularly fruits, vegetables, and prepared foods. The
eating quality of red meats is affected less than that of many other foods. Use refrozen foods as
soon as possible, to save as much of its eating quality as you can.”
10. This refrigerator should not be recessed or built-in in an enclosed cabinet. It is designed for
freestanding installation only.
11. Do not operate your refrigerator in the presence of explosive fumes.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The electrical requirements are a 115V 60 Hz, AC only, 15A. It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only the product be provided. The product is equipped with a 3-wire cord having a 3-prong
grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. The cord provided with this
appliance is equipped with a grounding wire and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
Avoid the use of three prong adapters or cutting off the third grounding prong in order to accommo-
date a two prong outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the
refrigerator and may result in shock hazard.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if:
1) The grounding instructions are not completely understood.
2) You are unsure that the appliance is properly grounded.
3) You have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions.
POWER SUPPLY CORD
1. Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions.
Have a qualified electrician or serviceman to install an outlet near the appliance.
2. If it is absolutely necessary to use longer cord sets or an extension cord, extreme care must be
exercised.
a) Use only a grounding type 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot
receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance.
b) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord must equal to or greater than the
electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
NOTE - Neither Koolatron nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the product or personal
injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures.

CARE AND CLEANING (cont.) TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
You can solve many common appliance problems easily, saving you the cost of a possible service call.
Try the suggestions below to see if you can solve the problem before calling the servicer.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
• The refrigerator should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing
appliances or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the refrigerator. Overloading the
refrigerator forces the compressor to run longer and thus increase energy consumption. Foods that
refrigerate too slowly may lose quality or spoil.
• Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing in the refrigerator.
• The shelves should not be lined with aluminium foil, wax paper, or paper towels. This will interfere
with cold air circulation, making the refrigerator less efficient.
• Organize food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at
one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
