Engegada inicial

After placement and leveling, allow the refrigerator to stand upright for at least 2-4 hours before plugging it into a power outlet. This allows the refrigerant to settle. Plug the unit into a dedicated 115V AC outlet. The compressor will start, and the interior will begin to cool.

Instruccions de funcionament

Control de temperatura

The refrigerator features a reliable compressor cooling system with a thermostat dial located inside the unit. You can set the desired cooling level between 28°F (-2°C) and 50°F (10°C). Turn the dial to a higher number for colder temperatures and a lower number for warmer temperatures. Allow several hours for the temperature to stabilize after adjustment.

Emmagatzematge de la porta

The refrigerator door offers ample storage, including a unique Dispense-A-Can compartment and additional shelves for bottles and smaller items. The magnetic door seal ensures the cold air remains inside.

Manteniment

Neteja

Always unplug the refrigerator before cleaning. Clean the interior and exterior surfaces with a mild detergent and warm water. Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals. For the magnetic door seal, wipe gently with a damp cloth and ensure it is dry before closing the door.

Descongelació

The freezer compartment is not frost-free and will accumulate frost over time. When the frost layer becomes about 1/4 inch thick, it is time to defrost. Unplug the unit, remove all contents, and place the drip tray under the freezer compartment to collect water. Allow the frost to melt naturally. Do not use sharp objects to remove ice. Once defrosted, clean and dry the interior before plugging the unit back in.
