BEFORE USE
Remove the Packaging
Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning
on the refrigerator drawers. Rub a small amount of liquid dish
soap over the glue residue with your fingers. Wipe with warm
water and dry.
Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable
fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These
products can damage the surface of your refrigerator
drawers. For more information, see Refrigerator Drawers
Safety.
Clean Before Use
After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside
of your refrigerator drawers before using them. See the cleaning
instructions in Refrigerator Drawers Care.
REFRIGERATOR DRAWERS USE
Normal Sounds
Your new refrigerator drawers may make sounds that your old
refrigerator drawers didnt. Because the sounds are new to you,
you might be concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are
normal. Hard surfaces, such as the floor, walls, and cabinets, can
make the sounds seem louder. The following describes the kinds
of sounds and what may be making them.
Your refrigerator drawers are designed to run more efficiently
to keep your food items at the desired temperatures and to
minimize energy usage. The high efficiency compressor and
fans may cause your refrigerator drawers to run longer than
your old ones. You may also hear a pulsating or high-pitched
sound from the compressor or fans adjusting to optimize
performance.
You may hear the evaporator fan motor circulating air through
the refrigerator drawers. The fan speed may increase as you
open the drawers or add warm food.
As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to
the refrigerant flowing through the sealed system tubing.
Contraction and expansion of the inside walls may cause a
popping noise.
You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the
condenser fan.
You may hear water running into the drain pan during the off
cycle.
Ensuring Proper Air Circulation
In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need to permit
airflow inside the drawers.
Do not block any of these vents with food such as soda, cereal,
bread, etc. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be prevented and
the temperature controls will not function properly.
IMPORTANT: To prevent odor transfer from food, wrap or cover
foods tightly.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
