Help Prevent Tragedies
Child entrapment and suocaon are not problems of the past.
Junked or abandoned refrigerators are sll dangerous, even if
they sit out for “just a few days”.
If you are geng rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the
instrucons below to help prevent accidents.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:
• Take o the doors or remove the drawers.
• Leave the shelves in place so children may not easily climb
inside.
If the unit was shipped or has been laying on its back for any
period of me allow the refrigerator to sit upright for a period of
at least 24 hours before plugging in. This will assure oil returns
to the compressor. Plugging the refrigerator in immediately may
cause damage to internal parts.
It is important you send in your warranty registraon card im-
mediately aer taking delivery of your refrigerator or you can
register online at www.marvelrefrigeraon.com.

this area open.
Figure 1
Select Locaon
The proper locaon will ensure peak performance of your ap-
pliance. We recommend a locaon where the unit will be out
of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To assure your
product performs to specicaons the recommended installaon
locaon temperature range is from 65 to 90°F (18 to 32°C).
Cabinet Clearance
Venlaon is required from the boom front secon of the unit.
Keep this area open and clear of any obstrucons. Adjacent
cabinets and counter top can be installed around the unit as long
as the grille and door access remain unobstructed.

Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the unit should
be set so the unit is rmly posioned on the oor and level from
side to side and front to back. The overall height of your Marvel
refrigerator may be adjusted from 33-3/4” (85.7cm) with the
leveling legs turned in, and up to 34-3/4” (88.3cm) with the lev-
eling legs extended. The 80 cabinets (30” wide) have a center leg
at the rear of the cabinet that must also be used to stabilize the
cabinet. (See Figure 2).
To adjust the leveling legs, place the refrigerator on a solid sur-
face and protect the oor beneath the legs to avoid scratching
the oor. With the assistance of another person, lean the refrig-
erator back enough to access the front leveling legs and remove
the weight. Raise or lower the legs to the required dimension
by turning the legs. Repeat this process for the rear by lng
the refrigerator forward using cauon to prevent the door from
opening. On a level surface check the refrigerator for levelness
and adjust accordingly.
The front grille (toe kick) screws may be loosened and adjusted
to the desired height. When adjustment is complete ghten the
two toe kick screws. (See Figure 3).

Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grill. The openings within the front grill
allow air to ow through the condenser heat exchanger. Restric-
ons to this air ow will result in increased energy usage and
loss of cooling capacity. For this reason it is important this area
to not be obstructed and the grill openings kept clean. Marvel
does not recommend the use of custom made grills as air ow
may be restricted because of inadequate openings. (See Figure
1).
• Do not splash or spray water from a hose on the refrigera-
tor! Doing so may cause an electrical shock, which may
result in severe injury or death.
• This unit should not, under any circumstances, be installed
to an un-grounded electrical supply.
Grounding Method
This product is factory equipped with a power supply cord that
has a three-pronged, grounded plug. It must be plugged into a
mang grounding type receptacle in accordance with the Na-
onal Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances
(see Figure 4). If the circuit does not have a grounding type re-
ceptacle, it is the responsibility and obligaon of the customer to
provide the proper power supply. The third ground prong should
not, under any circumstances, be cut or removed.
Electrical Requirements
Electrical Requirements: A 115 volt, 15 amp dedicated circuit is
required. A 3 prong grounded receptacle is required.
The unit must be installed according to your local building codes
and ordinances.
Do not use an extension cord with
this appliance.

Adjusng the temperature control
Aer plugging in the units power cord set the temperature con-
trol midway between the numbers. Aer 2 hours adjust to the
temperature that suits you. The higher the number you select,
the cooler the temperature. (See Figure 7).
The temperature control knob is located at the boom, front of
the cabinet, just behind the square opening near the middle of
the grille.
Figure 7
Defrosng Instrucons

cooling plate. Follow these steps whenever 1/4 inch or more of
frost accumulates.
1. Disconnect the power cord and set the temperature control
knob to the “OFF” posion.
2. Remove the contents from the unit.
3. Place pans of hot water on the cooling plate if you wish to
speed up defrosng.
4. Wipe out the interior and replace the contents.
5. Connect the power cord to the outlet.
6. Set the temperature control to the desired level.
In the Event of a Power Failure
Minimize the number of door openings to prevent a gradual rise
in temperature while the power is o.
NOTE: If a power interrupon occurs, the unit may take ve (5) to
ten (10) minutes to restart.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS
Energy Saving Tips
The following suggesons will minimize the cost of operang
your refrigeraon appliance.
1. Do not install your appliance next to a hot appliance, (ovens,
glassware washers, etc.). heang air duct, or other heat
sources.
2. Install product out of direct sunlight.
3. Assure the toe grille vents at front of unit beneath door are
not obstructed and kept clean to allow venlaon for the
refrigeraon system to expel heat.
4. Plug your appliance into a dedicated power circuit. (Not
shared with other appliances).
5. When inially loading your new product, or whenever large
quanes of warm contents are placed within refrigerated
storage compartment, minimize door openings for the next
12 hours to allow contents to pull down to compartment
set-point temperature.
6. Maintaining a relavely full storage compartment will re-
quire less appliance run me than an empty compartment.
7. Assure door closing is not obstructed by contents stored in
your appliance.
8. Allow hot items to reach room temperature before placing
in product.
9. Minimize door openings and duraon of door openings.
10. Use the warmest temperature control set-point that pro-
vides the proper storage for your stored contents.
11. Set the control to the “o” posion if cleaning the unit
requires the door to be open for an extended period of
me.
12. Annually clean condenser heat exchange coil located
in machine compartment underneath unit, (see “Care
and Cleaning” page 12).
11
Cleaning instrucons
Condenser
The condenser underneath the cabinet does not require fre-
quent cleaning; however, sasfactory cooling depends on ad-
equate venlaon over this heat exchanger. It is recommended
to annually clean the condenser by vacuuming and brushing.
To access the condenser, the unit must be pulled out from the
installaon, and the lower machine compartment access cover
removed.
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning the condenser.
Be sure that nothing obstructs the required air ow openings
in front of the cabinet. At least once or twice a year, brush or
vacuum lint and dirt from the front grille area (see page 4).
Cabinet
The painted cabinet can be washed with mild soap and water and
thoroughly rinsed with clear water. NEVER use abrasive scouring
cleaners.
Interior
Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. DO NOT
use an abrasive cleaner, solvent, polish cleaner, or undiluted de-
tergent.
Glass Door (oponal)
Use a glass cleaner or mild soap and water, and so cloth to clean
the glass door model. DO NOT use any abrasive cleaners.
Door Gasket
The vinyl gasket may be cleaned with mild soap and water, a bak-
ing soda soluon, or a mild scouring powder.
