2. Setup and Installation
Proper setup is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of your refrigerator. Follow these steps carefully.
2.1 Unpacking
Remove all packaging materials, tape, and protective film from the refrigerator. Ensure all accessories and components listed in the 'What's in the Box' section are present.
2.2 Placement
Place the refrigerator on a flat, stable surface strong enough to support its weight when fully loaded. Allow adequate clearance around the unit for proper ventilation. A minimum of 2 inches (5 cm) at the back and sides, and 4 inches (10 cm) at the top is recommended.
2.3 Leveling
Use a level to ensure the refrigerator is perfectly level. Adjust the leveling legs located at the bottom front of the unit as needed. Proper leveling helps the doors close correctly and ensures efficient operation.
2.4 Electrical Connection
Connect the refrigerator to a dedicated, grounded 115 Volt, 60 Hz AC outlet. Do not use extension cords or adapter plugs. Allow the refrigerator to stand upright for at least 2-4 hours before plugging it in to allow refrigerants to settle.

4. Maintenance and Care
Regular maintenance ensures your refrigerator operates efficiently and extends its lifespan.
4.1 Cleaning the Interior
Clean the interior regularly with a solution of mild soap and warm water. Wipe down shelves, drawers, and door bins. For stubborn stains, a baking soda paste can be used. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or sharp objects that could damage surfaces.
4.2 Cleaning the Exterior
Wipe the stainless-steel exterior with a soft cloth dampened with warm, soapy water. For best results and to prevent streaks, use a stainless-steel cleaner and polish. Always wipe in the direction of the grain. Keep the door gaskets clean to ensure a tight seal.
4.3 Automatic Defrost
This refrigerator features an automatic defrost system, eliminating the need for manual defrosting. If you notice excessive frost build-up, ensure the doors are sealing properly and that the unit is not overpacked, which can obstruct air circulation.
