Appliance Placement
Leave a three (3) inch space on all sides and the back
of the cabinet for adequate air circulation. Choose a
place that is near a grounded electrical outlet. For the
most efficient operation, the appliance should be
located where surrounding temperatures will not
exceed 100°F (38°C). Appliance should not be
operated in ambient below 32°F (0°C). Additional
compressor heaters are not recommended.
Insulation
The insulated space of this cabinet is sealed to
maintain peak efficiency. Holes drilled in the cabinet
may destroy that seal and damage electrical wiring
located in the insulated space.
DAMAGED ELECTRICAL WIRING OR WET
INSULATION CAUSED BY DRILLING WILL VOID THE

hours. Do not place any food in the appliance until
after the first 24 hours of operation.
