provided, the following items must be checked or
completed:
Cool Down Period
For safe food storage, allow 24 hours for the appliance

Do not place any food in the appliance until after the first
24 hours of operation.
Thermostat Setting
The appliance is shipped from the factory with the

range. Adjustments colder or warmer can be made after
the appliance has been running for at least 8 hours.
Allow at least 8 hours for temperature stabilization
before re-adjusting the thermostat.
Defrost Setting
The appliance is designed to defrost automatically every
12 hours. To set the time of defrost wait until the desired
time to defrost. With the notch on the timer knob aligned
with the line on the bracket (Fig. A), turn the defrost
timer knob clockwise slowly. The timer wilt click several
times, then once loudly, at which point the defrost cycle
begins. The timer knob wilt advance through the defrost

For example, to set the appliance to defrost at 10:00
a.m., turn the timer knob clockwise at 10:00 a.m. until
the timer clicks loudly. The appliance wilt defrost daily at
10:00 a.m. and again 12 hours later at 10:00 p.m. Note:
