OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
DEFROSTING INSTRUCTIONS:
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 pain situated above the compressor. The water will then evaporate 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 pain without obstruction. Failure to keep this drain 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.
DOOR REVERSAL INSTRUCTIONS:
CAUTION: To avoid personal injury to yourself and/or property, we recommend someone assist you
during the door reversal process.

To avoid vibration, the unit must be set level. This is accomplished by adjusting the (2) front leveling legs
located under the refrigerator. To start the refrigerator, turn the temperature control to the position
corresponding to the desired cooling. We recommend starting the temperature at 4 (middle setting) and
adjusting if necessary.
OFF = No Cooling 4 = Medium Cooling
1= Minimum Cooling MAX = Maximum Cooling
The temperature will vary depending on the quantity of the food stored and on the frequency with which the
door is opened.
