Electrical Connection
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
three-prong plug which mates with standard three-prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (grounded) prong from the power cord supplied. For personal
safety, this appliance must be properly grounded. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be
directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized service center.
This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~ 60Hz three-prong grounded electrical outlet. Have the wall
outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. When a standard 2-
prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-
prong wall outlet.
To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling.
The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that
matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house
wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheating. Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the power
cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull it straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power
cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.
Extension Cord
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do not use an
extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a
UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the
electrical rating of the cord is 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.

DISPOSAL
Dispose of your appliance packaging properly. Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc., are disposed of
safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation!
Refrigeration equipment must be properly disposed of in a professional and appropriate way, in accordance with
the current local regulations and laws which protect the environment. This applies to your old appliance and to your
new unit once it has reached the end of its service life.
WARNING: Please ensure that old, worn appliances are rendered unusable before disposal by removing the
doors, removing the plug, cutting the network cable, and removing or destroying any snap fastenings or bolts.
Leave shelving in place. You will thus prevent children from locking themselves in the appliance during play (risk of
suffocation) or endangering their lives in any other way. DO NOT dispose of the appliance in landfill as the
insulation (Cyclopentane) and refrigerant gas (R600a) contained in these appliances are flammable.
Disposal instructions:
• The appliance must not be disposed of in the dustbin or with normal household rubbish.
•
The coolant circuit, particularly the heat exchanger at the back/bottom of the unit, must not be damaged.
•
The appliance is not to be handled as normal household waste but is to be taken to a recycling collection point
for electrical and electronic goods. By correctly disposing of this product, you are contributing to the protection
of the environment and to the health of your fellow human beings. Improper disposal endangers health and the
environment. Further information about the recycling of the product may be obtained from your town hall, refuse
collection department or the store where you purchased the product.
Risk of Child Entrapment!
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned appliances are still
dangerous, even if they will “just sit for a few days.”
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:
•
Take off the doors
•
Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

Lay the wooden panel (3) on a flat surface.
2.
Place the top bracket (4) along the edge of the panel.
3.
Attach the bracket (4) to the wooden panel by using three ½” Phillips self-tapping screws (1).
4.
Repeat steps 2-3 for the bottom bracket (2) .To prepare the unit for panel installation, remove the lock
bracket (8) and magnetic activator (5) from the bottom of the door and remove the magnetic activator (5) &
hole plugs (6) from the top of the door. This is done by removing the screws that attach the lock bracket and
magnetic activators to the door.
5.
We recommend you leave the factory-installed protective film to protect the door and prevent
scratching while installing the panel.
6.
Open the unit’s door all the way. Then, carefully slide the bracketed wooden panel onto the unit’s door (7).
7.
To complete the installation, attach the bracket to the door by inserting two ½” Phillips self-tapping screws (9)
through the bracket and into the unit’s door, one on each end of the bracket.

the two screws that attach the handle to the door.
2.
Drill the 8 holes shown by using a 3/16” drill bit inside the
door groove on the four sides of the door front (2).
3.
Cut the overlay panel (1) to a thickness of 3/4” to the
dimensions corresponding to your model. The height of the
panel should be 3/80” [1mm] greater than the height of the
door and the width of the panel should be 5/32” [4mm] wider
than the door, except for models FFRF24SS,
FFRF3070BPNR, DBFDRF2497, and DBFDRF3098, where
the width should be 5/64” [2mm] more than the door width.
4.
Attach the handle to the overlay panel by using the flat
head screws and drive the screws flush with the panel.
5.
Then attach the overlay panel to the door face using the 8 wood screws #10x1½ (ST4x38) (3) and
through the 8 existing holes inside the door groove.

Temperature Memory Function
In the event of a power interruption the unit can remember the previous temperature settings, and when the power is recovered,
the cabinet temperature will return to the same setting temperature as before the power went off.
Defrosting
•
The unit defrosts automatically in normal operating conditions.
•
The evaporator behind the rear wall of the unit defrosts automatically. The condensate collects in the drainage
channel behind the rear wall of the unit and flows through the drainage hole into the drip tray by/above the
compressor where it evaporates.
•
However, frost may accumulate on the evaporator if the unit is repeatedly opened in a high heat or high humidity
location. If this frost pattern does not clear within 24 hours, your unit will require manual defrosting.
Using the Freezer (if available)
•
These freezers are designed for the long-term storage of frozen food. Storage time is up to three months.
•
The storage life of frozen foods varies, and the recommended storage time should not be exceeded.
•
Pre-packaged commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen foods manufacturer’s
instructions for a three-star frozen food storage compartment or home freezer.
•
Place frozen food into the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase. If there are instructions on the packet,
carefully follow these instructions regarding storage times.
Ice Maker (if available)
Make sure the water supply is ON and lower the metal arm on the ice maker to its ON position. As soon as the inner
mechanism reaches the proper temperature, the ice maker will fill the mold with water.
The first cubes may be small because of air in the water line. Later cubes will be of standard crescent moon type
size.
For the first time to use:
• Let the ice maker make ice for 1-2 days.
• Discard the first 2-3 batches of ice to remove the impurities in the water supply system. When the ice bucket is full, the ice
making mechanism will automatically shut off.
Ice production may be interrupted by raising the metal arm to the OFF position.
If the ice maker is not used regularly, it is recommended that the ice bucket be emptied periodically to insure fresh
ice.
CAUTION: For models with ice maker, switch the ice maker off when initiating the Sabbath mode.
NOTE: Only use the original LED light fittings provided by the manufacturer.
26
Temperature Alarm / Door Alarm
•
An audible alarm sounds if the storage temperature is not cold enough. The temperature display flashes at the
same time.
•
The cause of the temperature being too high may be:
–
Warm fresh food was placed inside
–
Too much warm ambient air flowed in when rearranging and removing food
–
Power failure for some time
–
The appliance is faulty
•
The audible alarm is automatically silenced, and the temperature display stops flashing when the temperature is
sufficiently cold again.
•
If the door has been left open for more than 60 seconds, the alarm will sound. Pressing the POWER key
once can switch off the audible alarm.

rail compartment.
•
Any of the shelves can be removed to store larger items.
•
When removing the shelf from the rail compartment, make sure
to remove all items first. Then move the shelf to the position
where the notch of the shelf is exactly under the plastic post and
lift the shelf. In order to replace the shelf, repeat the steps
described above in reverse.
Cantilevered Shelves
(Only for Models ASDS1523 / SDHR1534 / ASDS2413 / SDHR2444 / SPR618OSADA / DBAR1523ASD / DBAR1525SD /
DBAR2424ASD / DBAR2426SD / DBAROS2428ASD / SCR610BLSD)
Any of the shelves can be removed to store larger items.
•
When removing the shelf, make sure to have the door all the
way open and remove all items first. Hold the front of the shelf,
and then gently lift up and move out toward you.
•
In order to replace the shelf, hold the shelf at an angle so the

27
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning your Appliance
•
Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items, including shelves.
•
Wash the inside surfaces with a solution of warm water and baking soda (about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to
a quart of water).
•
Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
•
Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning the area where the controls are located, or any
electrical parts.
•
Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean,
soft cloth.
•
Use an approved stainless steel cleaner to clean the doors and handles. Do not use steel wool or a steel brush
on the stainless steel.
Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your appliance if you
minimize the number of times the doors are opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you
need to take the proper steps to protect the contents.
Vacation
•
Short vacations: Leave the appliance operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
•
Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn off the
appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the doors open
slightly, blocking them open if necessary.
Moving your Appliance
1.
Remove all items.
2.
Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside the appliance.
3.
Turn the adjustable legs up to the base to avoid damage.
4.
Tape the doors shut.
5.
Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also, protect the outside of the
appliance with a blanket or similar item.
Energy-Saving Tips
•
The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room or outdoor location, away from heat-producing
appliances and out of direct sunlight.
•
Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
•
Do not keep the doors open any longer than necessary.
•
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the unit. Overloading the unit forces the compressor to
run longer.
•
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit. This cuts down on
frost build-up inside the unit.
•
Unit shelves and storage bins should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the unit less efficient.
•
Organize and label 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.
CAUTION: Failure to unplug the appliance during cleaning could result in electrical shock or other personal injuries.
