ELECTRICAL GROUNDING (for 120-volt models only) Must be grounded. Uses 110-120 volts, 60 Hz. (60 cycles A.C.) Do not use extension cord. Use three-prong plug, with three-prong grounded wall outlet. Unless the above grounding method is followed, you are not protected against severe or lethal shock, in the event of a short circuit of an electrical component or wiring of refrigerator. CAUTION Should you unplug refrigerator, allow at least three minutes before restarting in order to allow the start relay to function properly. USE AND CARE INFORMATION • TIPS ON EVERYDAY USE AND CARE TO CONTROL TEMPERATURE: Start by setting control on No. 3. Wait 24 hours for refrigerator to cool. Higher number is colder. Fresh food section should be as cold as possible without freezing vegetables or milk. Adjust as necessary. DEFROST: This refrigerator is equipped with an automatic defrost timer so that no manual operation is required for defrosting. The defrost timer is located on the rear wall of this refrigerator. The black segment of the defrost timer dial, from 0 to 3, covers a 3-hour time span and represents the normal defrosting period--the compressor does not operate during this time. The defrost timer will continue to operate and will repeat the 3-hour defrost period once every twenty-four (24) hours as long as the refrigerator is plugged in. The most practical time for automatic defrosting is between midnight and 3 a.m. To accomplish this, set the defrost timer shaft with the arrow at the number on the timer dial which relates to the time of day/night it is being set. While defrosting, the defrost water is drained out of the cabinet into an evaporating tray on the rear wall of the refrigerator and is evaporated automatically. To set the timer shaft, use a screwdriver and turn the shaft CLOCKWISE only. FOR ALL CLEANING: Mix 2 tablespoons baking soda or mild soap with 1 quart warm water. No strong cleaners, scouring powder or pads should be used. Do not put the defrost tray in the dishwasher. Vacuum the tubing on outside back when dusty. • THINGS TO REMEMBER 1. Allow 24 hours for your refrigerator to reach a new temperature setting. 2. The motor will start and stop often. It must do so in order to maintain the temperature you select. 3. Keep your refrigerator reasonably level. 4. Unplug refrigerator before doing anything with its electrical system (even changing a light bulb). • BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE Check plug and outlet. Test outlet with lamp or other device. Be sure control is on. Read all Use & Care Information. Your questions may be answered. If not, find your model number (on upper back of refrigerator or inside the refrigerator affixed to the inner liner surface on the right-hand side). Refer your model number and the problem to Absocold Corporation at (800) 843-3714 or (765) 935-7501. DANGER—ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. Disconnect power before servicing.
