Danby DAR1102W Refrigerator User Manual


 
Remove exterior and interior packings, wipe the outside thoroughly
with a soft dry cloth and the inside with a wet, lukewarm cloth. Avoid
placing the cabinet in a narrow recess or near any heat source, direct
sunlight, or moisture. Let air circulate freely around the cabinet. Keep
the rear of the refrigerator 5 inches away from the wall.
Location
1. Select a place with a strong, level floor.
2. Allow 5 inches of space between the back of the refrigerator and
any adjacent wall.
3. Avoid direct sunlight and heat. Direct sunlight may affect the
acrylic coating. Heat sources nearby will cause higher electricity
consumption.
4. Avoid very moist places. Too much moisture in the air will cause
frost to form very quickly on the evaporator, and your refrigerator
will have to be defrosted more frequently.
To avoid vibration, the cabinet must be set level. This is accomplished by
adjusting the (2) front leveling legs located under the refrigerator cabinet. To
start the refrigerator, turn the temperature control (OFF-MAX) to the position
corresponding to the desired cooling.
OFF = No Cooling
1= Minimum Cooling
The refrigerator temperature will vary depending on the quantity of the
food stored and on the frequency with which the door is opened.
ATTENTION
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing
an escape wire for the electrical current. This appliance is equipped
with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed
and grounded.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a
risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman
if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
Use an exclusive wall outlet. Do not connect your refrigerator to
extension cords or together with any other appliance in the same
wall outlet. Do not splice the cord.
IMPORTANT WARNING
An empty refrigerator is a very dangerous attraction to children.
Remove either the gasket, latches, lids or doors from unused
appliances, or take some other action that will guarantee it
harmless.

Safety Instructions
Operation
Installation
4 = Medium Cooling
MAX = Maximum Cooling
This refrigerator is inclusive of a cycle defrost system.
The refrigerator has a cold plate located in behind the back
wall of the refrigerator cabinet. Ice build-up on the back wall
during compressor operation is normal. When the compressor
has cycled off, accumulated ice will defrost automatically.
Defrost water will collect inside the drain trough pass through
the drain outlet located at the bottom of the cabinet and funnel
into a drain pan situated above the compressor. The water will
then evaporate from this tray from the heat of the compressor.
REMINDER: Keep the drain outlet opening clear of any food
particles or other impediments. This will ensure the water can
funnel to the drain pan without obstruction. Failure to keep
this outlet clean may result in water overflowing the trough,
causing water to accumulate at the bottom of the refrigerator,
eventually leaking onto your floor. Please wipe this trough and
drain outlet with a soft cloth as required.
