CHOOSING THE RIGHT PLACE
Place the appliance in a dry and regularly ventilated place. It is recommended that this appliance always be operated in an
ambient temperature of at least 60°F and under 85°F. The appliance may be exposed to lower or higher temperatures but only for a
short period of time and the temperature should never be lower than 45°F. Never place the appliance near heat emitting devices
(e.g. cooker, radiator, water heater or similar devices) and do not expose it to direct sunlight.
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz. AC only 15- or 20- amp fused or circuit breaker, grounded electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving only your appliance be provided. Use outlets that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain. Connect
this appliance to a 3 prong power supply socket outlet (which has a ground terminal). If you only have a two prong outlet have it
replaced by a qualified technician with an outlet that meets the local codes. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD. Required
nominal voltage and frequency are indicated on the rating plate. The connection to the power supply and grounding has to be
made according to current standards and regulations. The appliance resists temporary voltage tolerance from -15 to 10%.
ON OUTDOOR MODELS ONLY
NEVER USE INDOOR RATED APPLIANCES OUTDOORS. Summit manufactures refrigerators and freezers specifically for outdoor
use and these are the only ones that should be used outdoors.
Electrical Shock Hazard. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter.
Many outdoor outlets are controlled by wall switches. Turning off power and on again may cause the GFCI switch to trip.
A GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) is built into every line cord. Do not defeat or bypass this important safety feature. The line
cord supplied with this appliance is specially designed for outdoor use. Use only a factory supplied replacement cord with a GFCI
(ground fault circuit interrupter) in the event the cord becomes damaged.
You may purchase these cords from either our sales or service department at 718-893-3900 (sales) or 718-328-8700 (service).

ENERGY SAVING TIPS
• The more airflow you can provide around an appliance, the less energy it will use.
• If your appliance needs defrosting, keep ice build-up to less than 1/2 inch.
• Keep doors or drawers open a minimum of time, and shut securely.
1. Locate the two front leveling legs taped among the packing materials. In most models these legs are already mounted into the
underside of the appliance.
2. Screw these legs into the front holes on the bottom of the appliance. The back of the appliance rests on two fixed supports.
(Built-in models also have rear level legs that can provide more precise leveling).
3. Adjust the front legs just enough to lift the cabinet up off of the floor.
4. Place a leveling tool on top of the appliance: first side to side, then front to back. Turn leg counterclockwise to raise a corner.
Turn leg clockwise to lower a corner.
5. Repeat Step 4 until appliance is level.
6. After appliance is fully loaded, recheck with level as in Step 4.
7. If your appliance is equipped with casters, the two front casters have brakes to prevent rolling. Keep brakes locked, and unlock
for moving only.
