CAUTION
! !
• Stainless steel models exposed to chlorine gas and moisture such as areas with spas or swimming
pools, may have some discolorations of the stainless steel. Discoloration from chlorine gas is normal.
Follow exterior cleaning instructions.
• NEVER USE CHLORIDE TO CLEAN STAINLESS STEEL.
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect temperature of your
appliance if you minimize the number of times the drawer is 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 TIME
Short vacations: Leave the appliance operating during vacations of less then 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
drawer open slightly, blocking it open if necessary.
MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE
1. Remove all items.
2. Securely tape down all loose items inside your appliance.
3. Turn the adjustable legs up to the base to avoid damage.
4. Tape the drawer 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 drawer 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 placing them in the unit. This cuts down on
frost build up inside the unit.
Unit drawers 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 stored items reduce drawer openings and extended searches. Remove as many
items as needed at one time and close the drawer as soon as possible.
