IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance.

Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the Safety Alert Symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or injure you and others. All safety messages will follow the Safety Alert Symbol and either the words ”DANGER” or

“WARNING”.

DANGER means that failure to heed this safety statement may result in severe personal injury or death.

WARNING means that failure to heed this safety statement may result in extensive product damage, serious personal injury, or death.

Safety messages will alert you to what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and let you know what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

Before the refrigerator is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as described in this manual, so read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury when using the appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:

• Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adapter, and do not use an extension cord.

• It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your refrigerator, be provided. Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.

• Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion. And do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.

• Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line of the unit is disconnected.

• Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.

• Unplug the appliance or disconnect the power before cleaning or servicing. Failure to do so can result in electrical shock or death.

• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your refrigerator unless it is specifically recommended in this material. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

1

• Use two or more people to move and install the refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

• To ensure proper ventilation for your appliance, the front of the unit must be completely unobstructed. Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above 60

°

Installation Instructions

Before Using Your Appliance :

•

•

•

Remove the exterior and interior packing.

Before connecting the unit to a power source, let it stand for approximately 2 hours.

This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.

Remove the shelves and clean them and the interior surfaces of the unit with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

Installing the Refrigerator :

•

•

•

•

•

Place the unit on a floor that is strong enough to support the appliance when it is fully loaded. To level the unit, adjust the two leveling legs at the front.

Your appliance is designed to be free-standing only and not recessed or built into an enclosure. When installing, allow at least 2” (51mm) of space at the sides, top and rear of the unit to allow for proper air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser. Take care that the air vents at the front of the appliance are never covered or blocked in any way.

Locate the unit away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (oven, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also affect the unit's performance.

Avoid locating the unit in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to form quickly on the evaporator, requiring more frequent defrosting of the interior.

Plug the unit into an exclusive, properly installed and grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances 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 or authorized service center.

Electrical Connection :

Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

This unit should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this unit is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with a standard three-prong wall outlet to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

This unit requires a standard 115-volt AC/60Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your

6

responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the unit and not left exposed or dangling.

The unit should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires. Never unplug the unit by pulling on the power cord.

Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately any power cord that has become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the unit, be careful not to damage the power cord.

Extension Cord :

Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance.

Reversing the Door Swing :

If you find the direction of opening the door of the appliance inconvenient, you can change it. Holes on the opposite side have already been prepared at the factory.

This appliance can be opened from either the right side or the left. By default, the door hinge is on the right side. If you prefer it on the left, please follow the appropriate instructions:

For models FF6B, FF7 and FF7B :

1. Take off the upper hinge cover from the door and remove the screws that hold the top hinge.

2. Lift the hinge straight up to free the hinge pin from the socket in the top of the door.

3. Lift the door up and away to free its bottom socket from the hinge pin.

4. Remove the screws to the bottom hinge.

5. Remove the decorative caps from the opposite side and plug the holes from the original side with the decorative caps.

6. Move the bottom hinge to the opposite side and tighten the screws. Use any lock washers or nuts if they were installed in the original installation.

7. Replace door onto the hinge pin on the bottom hinge. Place top hinge pin into door.

Insert screws into the top hinge and tighten.

If you notice the door not hanging straight, loosen the top hinge screws, adjust the door until it is level and tighten the screws.

7

For models FF6, FF6L, FF7L, FF7LBL, SCR600L and SCR600BL :

NOTES: See illustration below.

All of the parts that are removed must be kept for the reinstallation of the door.

1. Unscrew the lower hinge and take off the door.

2. Push the kick plate to the right in the new position.

3. Undo the upper hinge fastener and fix it to the opposite side of the housing, where you have already removed and replaced the fastener with the hole to the opposite side.

4. Put the door on the upper hinge fastener.

5. Fix the lower hinge in the new position.

6. Unscrew the handle and place it on the opposite side.

7. Some screws are covered with caps. Take off these caps before undoing the screws.

8. Check the door gasket. It should not be creased and should seal well.

Operating Your Refrigerator

Temperature Control :

•

•

•

•

•

Your appliance’s evaporator system is out of sight behind the interior rear wall.

The interior temperature is controlled with a thermostat knob located inside the unit, towards the upper right-hand corner.

Turn the knob clockwise from the STOP (0) position toward the higher numbers for colder temperatures. Higher settings on the knob (higher numbers) mean lower temperatures

(colder) in the refrigerator.

On the coldest settings, temperatures in some spots inside the cabinet may drop below 32°F. Use higher thermostat settings only when required or recommended. When the ambient temperature is normal, we recommend a medium setting.

Changes in the ambient temperature affect the temperature inside the refrigerator so choose an appropriate setting of the thermostat knob, depending on ambient conditions.

In the STOP (0) position, the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched off), yet the power supply is not interrupted (the light still works).

The temperature inside the refrigerator also depends on how often you open the door.

In all small refrigerators without interior fans, temperatures are coldest near the bottom, and occasionally near the rear. Place contents accordingly. It is best not to operate these units mostly empty. If temperatures are erratic, try putting some water bottles inside to create a load for the compressor.

NOTES:

1. Shelves are adjustable. Certain models include glass shelves (see Technical

Information, page 5). These shelves stop short an inch before the back wall, which is essential for air flow and the proper operation of the automatic defrost system. Do not block these gaps.

2. a) Interior lighting on the FF6 series models is controlled by a switch that is activated

by the opening and closing of the refrigerator door. b) Lights on the other models are controlled by a manually-operated rocker switch. To

maintain the proper interior temperature, keep the light on only as long as

necessary.

3. If the refrigerator is unplugged, has lost power, or is turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting it. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the unit will not start.

Defrosting Your Appliance :

This appliance operates with an automatic defrost system, so the refrigerator defrosts itself. While the compressor is operating, ice will build along the rear cold wall (the evaporator plate is behind the wall). During the compressor’s off-cycle, ice will melt, drip down, collect in the trough at the bottom and drain through a small hole into a tray above the compressor; where the compressor’s heat will evaporate the water. If you notice excessive ice build-up on the rear wall, try setting the thermostat to a slightly warmer setting; be sure that the door gasket is sealing well and that there is no obstruction of the drain hole at the bottom rear of the interior cabinet.

9

Care and Maintenance

Cleaning Your Appliance :

1. Unplug the appliance, turn the thermostat to STOP (0) and remove all contents, including shelves.

2. Wash the inside surfaces with a solution of lukewarm water and vinegar. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.

3. Wash the shelves, drip tray and crisper with a mild detergent solution, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

4. Wash the outside cabinet with a solution of warm water and mild liquid detergent.

Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.

5. Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth before cleaning the area of the temperature control or any electrical parts.

6. From time to time, wipe the condenser on the rear wall with a soft non-metallic brush or vacuum cleaner.

7. After you have cleaned the appliance, reconnect it to the power supply, reset the thermostat and return all contents to their place.

CAUTION: Failure to unplug the unit could result in electrical shock or personal injury.

Power Failure :

Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your frozen and chilled items.

Vacation Time :

During long absences, remove all contents. Unplug the appliance, clean it and leave the door open slightly to avoid possible formation of condensation, mold or odors.

Moving Your Appliance :

1. Remove the contents.

2. Securely tape down all shelving inside your unit.

3. Turn the leveling legs up to the base to avoid damage.

4. Tape the door shut.

5. Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation.

Energy-Saving Tips :

• The unit should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing appliances or heating ducts and out of direct sunlight.

• Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is damp and hot.

Once you open the door, close it as soon as possible.

• Occasionally check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated (adequate air circulation behind the appliance).

•

Set the thermostat from higher to lower settings as soon as possible (depending on how loaded the appliance is, ambient temperature, etc.).

• Before loading items into the unit, be sure they have cooled to ambient temperature.

10

Troubleshooting

When using this appliance, you may come across some problems that in many cases result from improper handling and can easily be eliminated.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

The appliance fails to operate after being connected to the power source.

• Check whether the power supply is active and that the thermostat is not set to the

STOP (0) position.

The compressor is running continuously.

• The door was opened frequently or it was left open too long.

• The door is not properly closed (the door may sag, the gasket may be dirty or damaged).

• The power supply has been interrupted for a long period of time.

• The appliance may have been overloaded with items above room temperature.

• There may be inadequate ventilation of the compressor and condenser. (Assure there is adequate air circulation behind the appliance and wipe the dust from the condenser.)

Noise

• Cooling in refrigeration appliances is enabled by the refrigerating system with a compressor, which produces noise. How noisy the appliance is depends on where it is placed, how it is used and how old the appliance is.

•

During the operation of the compressor, the noise of liquid is heard and when the compressor is not operating, the refrigerant flow is heard. This is a normal

•

• condition and has no influence whatsoever on the lifetime of the appliance.

After starting the appliance, the operation of the compressor and the refrigerant flow may be louder. This does not mean that something is wrong. Gradually the noise is reduced.

Sometimes a louder noise is heard, which is unusual for the appliance. This noise is often a consequence of improper placement of the unit. (The unit should be placed and leveled firmly on a solid base and it should not touch the wall or cabinets standing next to it.)
