Installation Guide

IMPORTANT: Do not plug in the refrigerator for 24 hours after unit is set in place.
Failure to do so may result in the unit working improperly.
This refrigerator has a rotary temperature control knob (thermostat) inside the unit
which is marked with the settings OFF-COLD-COLDEST in order of increasing coldness.
In addition, this model employs a heater inside the cabinet and is designed for out-
door use.
Note: To prevent excessive strain on the compressor, do not leave the unit at the
COLDEST setting for more than an hour at a time.
Operating instructions
Turning on the Unit
The refrigerator turns on automatically when it is plugged in. When the air tempera-
ture is below 40°F, follow this procedure to stop the compressor:
1. Turn the temperature control knob (thermostat) to the COLD setting.
2. Continuing turning the control knob counter-clockwise to the OFF setting. The
compressor will stop working and the heater will turn on automatically to maintain
the temperature at a suitable level.
NOTES:
• If the ambient temperature is above 40ºF, turn the thermostat to the range be-
tween COLD and COLDEST to cool foods.
• If the ambient temperature is below 25°F, do not use the unit to store anything.
• If you unplug the refrigerator or the power is cut off accidentally, allow 8 minutes
before restarting it or plugging it back in. It will not operate properly in less than 8 min-
utes.
Temperature Setting
Initially set the thermostat to the midpoint between the COLD and COLDEST settings.
The compressor will run continuously for a few hours until the temperature inside the
appliance becomes stable. After this, the compressor runs normally (i.e., turns on and
off periodically).
When the unit is operated for the first time, it is suggested that you not put food inside
until the compressor is running normally.
Adjusting the thermostat clockwise will make the compressor run for a longer time
with a shorter compressor stop time, and the temperature inside the appliance will
become colder. The setting should be regulated according to ambient conditions
and the desired temperature. The compressor will run for a while after each regula-
tion before reaching a steady temperature.
