IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
?WARNING?
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
or injury when using your appliance, follow
these basic precautions:
? Read all instructions before using the appliance.
? DANGER or WARNING: Risk of child entrapment.
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or
abandoned refrigerator-freezers are still dangerous. . . even if they will “just sit in the
garage a few days.”
? Before you throw away your old appliance: Take off the doors. Leave the
shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
? Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the appliance.
? Never clean the appliance parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire
hazard or explosion.
? Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
? Before Using Your Appliance
? Remove the exterior and interior packing.
? Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:
? 1 Crisper
? 1 Glass Crisper Cover
? 5 Glass Shelves
? 5 Door Bins
? 2 Egg Trays
? 1 Bottle Retainer
? 1 Instruction Manual
? Before connecting the unit 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.
? Installing Your Appliance
? Place your unit on a floor that is strong enough to support the unit when it is fully loaded. To
level your unit, adjust the leveling legs at the bottom of the unit.
? Allow space between the back and sides of the unit, which allows the proper air circulation to
cool the compressor and condenser.
? Locate the unit 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 unit not to perform
properly.
? Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
? 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 refrigerator compartments.
