Interior
Setting up your refrigerator
Before using your refrigerator
Remove the exterior and interior packaging.
Wash the inside with a damp, warm cloth and a baking soda solution (two tablespoons in a quart [.94 l] of water), then
wipe dry with a dry cloth. Do this periodically to keep your refrigerator looking new.
Level your refrigerator using the leveling feet. If you do not level your refrigerator, the door may not close or seal
correctly, causing cooling, frost, and moisture problems. Turn the leveling feet clockwise to raise or counterclockwise to
low
er a side.
Finding a suitable location
Place your refrigerator on a oor that is strong enough to support it when fully loaded.
Do not install your refrigerator on carpeting or a rug.
Your refrigerator is designed to be free standing and should not be recessed or built-in.
Do not install your refrigerator in a garage or any other outside installation.
Adjust the feet to keep your refrigerator level.
If you locate your refrigerator next to a xed wall, allow sucient space on the hinge side for the door to swing open.
Position your refrigerat
or away from direct sunlight and sources of heat, such as a stove, heater, or radiator. Direct
sunlight may aect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extremely co
ld
temperatures may also prevent your refrigerator from performing correctly.
CAUTION:
Before connecting this refrigerator to a power source, let it stand for approximately six hours to reduce the possibility of a
malfunction in the cooling system.

Providing the correct power source
Check your local power source. Your refrigerator requires a 115V, 60Hz power supply.
Leveling your refrigerator
Leveling your refrigerator is important. If you do not level your refrigerator during installation, the doors may not close or
seal correctly which can cause cooling, frost, or moisture problems.
Rotate the leveling feet clockwise (to raise) your refrigerator or counter-clockwise (to lower).
WARNINGS:
Make sure that:
The power outlet accepts a 3-prong grounding plug. The third prong on t
he power cord plug grounds your refrigerator to minimize
the possibility of electric shock. Do not modify the power plug.
You do NOT plug anything else into the same power outlet as your refrigerator. You may overload the circuit which can cause a re.

Using your refrigerator
Before storing foods in your refrigerator, turn on the refrigerator and freezer compartments, then wait for 24 hours to make
sure that they are working correctly and to let both compartments reach the correct temperatures.
Setting the refrigerator temperature
CAUTIONS:
If you run your refrigerator in an ambient temperature below 50° F, it may not operate consistently.
For example, the freezer temperature may become too warm and the contents may defrost.
Internal temperatures can vary based on the location of your refrigerator, the ambient room temperature, and how often you o
pen
the doors.
Do not store carbonated drinks in the freezer compartment. They may break and damage your refrigerator.
Do not exceed the storage times recommended by the food manufacturers for any kind of food.
background

Tips on saving energy
Locate your refrigerator 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 them in your refrigerator. Overloading your refrigerator forces
the compressor to run longer.
Wrap foods correctly and wipe containers dry before placing them in your refrigerator. This cuts down on frost build-up
inside your refrigerator.
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches.
Do not use aluminum foil, wax pap
er, or paper toweling to line shelves. Liners interfere with cold air circulation and
make your refrigerator less ecient.
Tips on storing food
Always store cooked meats on a refrigerator shelf above raw meats to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw meat on a plate
which is large enough to collect juices, and cover the plate with cling lm or foil. Leave space around food. This allows
cold air to circulate around your refrigerator so that all parts of your refrigerator are kept cool.
To prevent
transfer of avors and food drying out, wrap or cover each food item separately. Fruit and vegetables need
not be wrapped.
Let hot food cool down before placing it in the refrigerator or freezer compartment. Placing hot food in the
fridge-freezer could spoil other food and lead to higher temperatures.
To prevent cold air from escaping, try to limit the number of times you open the doors. When retuning from shopping,
sort foods to be kept in the refrigerator compartment before opening the doors. Only open the door to put food in or
take
it out.
Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperature, such as bananas and melons.
When storing food in the refrigerator compartment, use a container with a lid whenever possible. This prevents
moisture from evaporating, and helps food keep its taste and nutrients.
When storing food in the freezer compartment, wrap the food in polyethylene lm, aluminum foil, or other types of
freezer storage products
Do not block air vents inside either compartment with food. Smooth circulation of cold air keeps
the refrigerator and
freezer temperatures even.
Do not open the doors frequently. Opening the doors lets warm air enter the compartments and can cause the
temperature to rise.
To adjust the temperature control easily, do not store food near the temperature controls.
Never keep too many foods in the door rack, because this may stop the door from fully closing.
Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment. They may break when frozen.
Do not refreeze food that has been thawed. This causes a loss of taste and
nutrition.
Store fruits and vegetables in the crisper to prevent excessive evaporation of water and freshness.
Leave a small amount of “air space” when freezing liquids to allow for expansion.
To make the best use of freezer space, freeze liquids (or solids with liquids, such as stew) in square blocks. Pour the
liquid into a freezer bag placed inside a square-sided container and freeze it. When the liquid is frozen, remove the bag
from the container and seal the bag.
Tips for shopping for frozen foods
When you are buying frozen food, look at the storage guidelines on the packaging. Check the “Best Before” date. Do
not use food that is past this date.
Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop where you buy your frozen foods.
Make sure that the frozen food package is in perfect condition.
Always buy frozen products last to avoid thawing while you shop.
Keep frozen food together while shopping, and on the journey home to help to keep the food cooler.
Don't buy frozen food unless you can freeze it quickly.
When
transporting frozen food, use special insulated bags that you can buy from most supermarkets and hardware
shops. These keep frozen food cold longer.
Freeze food in small quantities. It freezes faster and takes less time to thaw.
If you are freezing large amounts of fresh food, select a low temperature range. This will lower the temperature in the
freezer so your food freezes faster. When the food is frozen, adjust the temperature back to its normal mode.

If any temperature indicator lights ash continuously, it indicates a possible malfunction. Unplug the refrigerator for one
min and then plug it back in. If the ashing light condition recurs, contact customer service.
CAUTION: Do not try to repair your refrigerator yourself. Doing so invalidates the warranty.
PROBLEM SOLUTION
My refrigerator does not work.
Make sure that your refrigerator is securely plugged into a working outlet.
Make sure that your power source has the correct voltage. Your refrigerator’s
voltage rating is on a label
on the back of your refrigerator.
Check the house fuse or circuit breaker box and replace the fuse or reset the
circuit breaker.
The refrigerator compartment
has a bad odor.
Make sure that all food with a strong odor (like onions) is wrapped or stored
in
ai
rtight packaging.
Certain containers and wrapping materials (such as paper, foil, or plastic) can
cause
odors. If you think this might be the case, try using dierent containers or
a dierent brand of wrapping material
.
Check for spoiled food and remove it.
Clean the inside of your refrigerator. See
Cleaning your refrigerator on page 1 .
The refrigerator doors do not
close completely.
Make sure that no food packages are in the way.
Make sure that the door gaskets (seals) are clean. See Cleaning your refrigerator
on page 17.
If the door gasket does not seal, try heating then cooling the seal. You can use an
electric hair dryer to heat the seal.
Make sure that your refrigerator is level. See Leveling your refrigerator on
page 9.
The temperature is too hot.
You may have left the doors open too long or opened them too frequently.
Make sure that no obstacle is keeping the doors from closing correctly.
Adjust the refrigerator or freezer compartment temperature. See Setting the
refrigerator temperature on page 14 or Setting the humidity in the crisper on
page 15.
Your refrigerator may not have enough clearance from walls or the ceiling. See
Providing correct ventilation on page 8.
The temperature is too cold.
Adjust the refrigerator or freezer compartment temperature. See Setting the
refrigerator temperature on page 14 or Setting the humidity in the crisper on
page 15.
A layer of frost occurs in one of
the compartments.
A layer of frost may occur on the compartment’s interior walls if the freezer is
opened frequently or kept open too long.
Make sure that the air outlets are not blocked by food.
Make sure that the doors are fully closed.
The refrigerator door is hard to
open or close.
When you open the refrigerator door, warm air rushes inside. When you close
the door, the warm air rushes to the condenser which causes a vacuum. This
causes the door to be hard to open for about 10 to
15 seconds after closing.
If the door is hard to open at other times, try rubbing paran wax or petroleum
jelly along the edges of the entire gasket. Paran wax is used for canning and is
safe for use around food.
If the door is hard to close, try slightly loosening the tension on the door hinges.
The compressor runs for a long
time or turns on and o
frequently.
The compressor runs longer if:
The room temperature is high.
You just added a large amount of food. Wait for the food to freeze, then check
again.
You open
and close the door frequently.
The door gasket is dirty. Clean the gasket. See Cleaning your refrigerator on
page 17.
Your refrigerator has been disconnected for a period of time. Wait for your
refrigerator to cool (about four hours) before adding food.
You have the temperature set too low.
