OPERATION
ENERGYSAVING TIPS AND OTHER NOTES
• Do not place the unit next to a heating vent, a range/oven, or in direct sunlight.
• Keep the door closed as much as possible, especially in hot, humid weather.
• Cover foods and beverages to reduce moisture buildup inside the appliance.
• A temperature sensor records the average temperature of the unit. Since cold air falls
and warm air rises, there will be a temperature variation from the bottom to the top of
the unit, meaning the bottom of the unit will always be slightly colder,
• The control panel controls the average temperature of the unit. The temperature
displayed on the control panel is the instantaneous average temperature of the unit;
as such, variations of anywhere from 1 to 6 degrees is normal.
• When fully loaded with room temperature product, the unit will operate continuously
for as long as 24 hours to reduce the temperature inside the cabinet to the desired
point. Under normal conditions, when the unit has been on for 6 hours, it will stop
working for about 30 minutes to defrost automatically.
CAUTION
Damages caused by ambient temperatures of 40 °F (4 °C) or below are not
covered by the warranty. To temporarily stop cooling, unplug the unit. To shut
down for longer periods, disconnect and leave the door partially open.
• While this unit is designed to operate between 50 °F and 110 °F (10 °C and 43 °C),
higher ambient temperatures may reduce the unit’s ability to reach low temperatures.
• Optimal results are obtained at temperatures between 65 °F and 80 °F (18 °C and
27 °C) for built-in models and between 65 °F and 90 °F (18 °C and 32 °C) for
freestanding models.
NOTE: If you unplug the refrigerator, allow at least 3 minutes before plugging it back in.
The unit may not restart in less than 3 minutes.
