• Plug the refrigerator into an exclusive, properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circum-
stances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power
and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician.
• After plugging the refrigerator into a wall outlet, allow the unit to cool down for 2-3 hours before placing.
Energy saving tips
• The refrigerator should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances,
and out of the direct sunlight.
• Overloading the refrigerator forces the thermoelectric cooling system to run longer.
• Reduce door openings and extended searches, remove as many item as needed at one time, and close
the door as soon as possible.
• One characteristic of heat-pipe units is the length of time it requires to recover from having the door
opened and shut frequently. It may be necessary to wait longer for the temperature to return to its former
level once the door has been opened for too long. This is normal for the type of unit.
• Heat-pipe technology costs just pennies to operate. It is environmentally friendly due to the lack of CFC's.
