Instruction manual
Before connecting the refrigerator to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2
hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling
during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
This appliance is designed to be free standing only, and should not be recessed or built-in.
Installation of Your Refrigerator
Place your refrigerator on a floor that is strong enough to support the refrigerator when it is
fully loaded. To level your refrigerator, adjust the front legs at the bottom of the refrigerator.
Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the refrigerator, which allows the
proper air circulation to cool the compressor.
Locate the refrigerator away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator,
etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical
consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the refrigerator not to
perform properly.
Avoid locating the refrigerator in moist areas.
Plug the refrigerator into an exclusive, properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under
any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions
concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an
authorized Avanti Products service center.
After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, allow the unit to cool down for 2-3 hours before
placing food in the chiller or refrigerator compartment.
