SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W (01) PDF Document

Before connecting the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.

Clean the interior surface of the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

Keep 4 inches of space between the back and the sides of the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W unit and 11 inches at the top to allow proper air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser.

The SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~60Hz three-prong grounded electrical outlet. It is your responsibility and obligation to have a standard 2-prong wall outlet replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

The size of the fuse (or circuit breaker) for the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W should be 15 amperes.

Adjust the left and right front leveling feet to ensure your refrigerator-freezer is on a horizontal level.

Turn the front leveling feet clockwise to increase the height of your refrigerator-freezer.

Turn the front leveling feet counterclockwise to lower the height of your refrigerator-freezer.

Step 1. Unplug the appliance, and remove all items from the door shelves and the interior.

Step 2. Remove the hinge hole cover from the top left side of the appliance.

Step 3. Remove the upper hinge cover from the top right side of the appliance. Then, remove the hinge screws and upper hinge.

Step 4. Lift the upper door off of the cabinet.

Step 5. Place the upper door on a soft surface to ensure the door is not scratched or damaged.

Step 6. Unscrew the middle hinge screws, and remove the middle hinge.

Step 7. Remove the two hinge hold plugs, the screw, and screw cap from the middle beam on the opposite side of the appliance.

Step 8. Remove the refrigerator door from the cabinet.

Step 9. Carefully tip the unit back, and remove the adjusting feet, lower hinge screws, and the lower hinge assembly.

Step 10. Install the lower hinge assembly on the other side of the cabinet, and install the adjusting feet again.

Step 11. Dismantle the limit blocks and screws on the lower cover of the refrigerator and freezer door. Install them on the opposite side of both doors. Then, install the sleeve pipe on the upper cover of the refrigerator door on the other side.

Step 12. Set the refrigerator door onto the lower hinge, and then install the middle hinge and hinge hole caps.

Step 13. Set the freezer door onto the middle hinge, and then install the upper hinge to secure the freezer door, making sure to secure the hinge cover and hinge hole cover.

Tools needed include:

Phillips head screwdriver

5/16″ socket and ratchet

Flat-head screwdriver

Masking tape

Putty knife

The control panel features a SET key and five temperature settings.

The settings cycle from 1 (coldest) to 5 (least cold) each time the SET key is pressed.

When an error occurs, the corresponding LED light combination corresponds to the specific error:

Wipe the outer surface of the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W unit with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or diluted detergent, and then wipe dry. Do not use hard brushes, clean steel balls, wire brushes, abrasives (such as toothpastes), organic solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, banana oil, etc.), boiling water, acid or alkaline items, which may damage the surface and interior of the unit. Boiling water and organic solvents such as benzene may deform or damage plastic parts. Do not rinse directly with water or other liquids during cleaning to avoid short circuits or potentially affect the electrical insulation.

Step 1. Lift up the front of the glass shelf, and then pull the shelf out.

Step 2. Clean as needed.

Step 3. Reinstall the shelf by placing the rear of the shelf into position first. Then, carefully lower the front of the shelf into place.

The SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W uses an automatic defrosting function. Frost formed due to the change of season or temperature may also be manually removed by disconnecting the appliance from the power supply or by wiping with a dry towel.

In case of a power failure, even in warmer weather, foods inside the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W can be kept for several hours. During the power failure, limit the times the door is opened, and do not add more fresh food into the appliance.

Before the unit is moved, remove all of the items stored inside, fix the glass shelves, drawers, freezing chamber drawers, etc. with tape, and tighten the leveling feet. Then, close the doors and fix them with tape.

During moving, the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W shall not be laid upside down or horizontally, or be vibrated; the inclination during movement shall be no more than 45 degrees.

For short vacations (less than three weeks), leave the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W operating.

For long vacations (several months), remove all items and turn the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W unit off. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open if necessary.

Check whether the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W is connected to power or whether the plug is in well contact.

Check whether the voltage is too low.

Check whether there is a power failure or partial circuits have tripped.

Tightly wrap food to prevent possible odor.

Check whether there is any rotten food. Clean the inside of the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W.

Long operation of the compressor is normal in summer when the ambient temperature is high.

It is not recommended to load a large amount of food in the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W at one time. Cool food to room temperature before loading into the appliance.

The doors are opened too frequently.

Check whether the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W is connected to power supply and whether the illuminating light is damaged.

The door is blocked by food packages.

The SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W is not level.

Check whether the floor is level and whether the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W is placed stably. Check whether accessories are placed at proper locations.

Remove foreign matters on the door seal.

Heat the door seal and then cool it for restoration (example: blow it with an electrical drier or use a hot towel for heating).

There is too much food in the chamber or the food stored contains too much water, resulting in heavy defrosting.

The doors are not closed properly, resulting in frosting due to the entry of air and increased water due to defrosting.

Heat dissipation of the built-in condenser via the housing is normal.

When the housing becomes hot due to high ambient temperatures and the storage of too much food, it is recommended to provide sound ventilation to facilitate heat dissipation.

Condensation on the exterior surface and door seals of the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W is normal when the ambient humidity is too high. Just wipe the condensate with a clean towel.

Buzz: The compressor may produce a buzzing noise during operation, and the buzzes are loud particularly upon start or stop. This is normal.

Creak: Refrigerant flowing inside of the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W may produce a creaking sound, which is normal.

The interior of the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W should be cleaned regularly to avoid any odor buildup.

Do not use soap, detergent, scrub powder, spray cleaner, etc., as these may cause odors in the interior of the refrigerator.

Use a soft cloth or sponge to clean the inside of the unit, using a solution of two tablespoons of baking soda and a quart of warm water. Then rinse with clean water, and then wipe clean with a soft towel. After cleaning, open the door and let the unit dry naturally before turning the power back on.

For areas that are difficult to clean in (such as narrow gaps or corners), it is recommended to wipe them regularly with a soft rag or brush, or when necessary, an auxiliary tool (such as a thin stick) to ensure no contaminant or bacterial accumulation in these areas.

Clean the bottle frame, shelves and drawers with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or diluted detergent. Dry with a soft cloth.

Check the door gasket regularly to make sure there is no accumulated debris. Clean the door gasket with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or diluted detergent.

Do not use hard brushes, clean steel balls, wire brushes, abrasives (such as toothpastes), organic solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, banana oil, etc.), boiling water, acid or alkaline items, which may damage the surface and interior of the SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF103W. Boiling water and organic solvents such as benzene may deform or damage plastic parts.
