SUMMIT APPLIANCE LF104PL (01) PDF Document

Follow basic precautions including the following:

1. Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet, do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adapter, and do not use an extension cord.
2. Replace all panels before operating.
3. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your appliance be provided. Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
4. 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.
5. Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
6. Unplug the appliance or disconnect power before cleaning or servicing. Failure to do so can result in electrical shock or death.
7. Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your appliance unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
8. This appliance is CFC- and HFC-free and contains small quantities of Isobutane (R600a) which is environmentally friendly, but flammable. It does not damage the ozone layer, nor does it increase the greenhouse effect. Care must be taken during transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can ignite and may damage the eyes.

In the event of any damage:

1. Avoid open flames and anything that creates a spark,
2. Disconnect from the power supply
3. Air the room in which the appliance is located for several minutes and
4. Contact the Service Department for advice.

Take serious care when handling, moving and using the appliance to avoid either damaging the refrigerant tubing or increasing the risk of a leak. Replacing component parts and servicing shall be done by factory authorized service personnel, so as to minimize the risk of possible ignition due to incorrect parts or improper service.

Follow warning callouts below only when applicable to your model:

1. Use two or more people to move and install appliance. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
2. To ensure proper ventilation for your appliance, the front of the unit must be completely unobstructed.
3. Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above 44°F (7°C) and below 90°F (32°C).
4. The appliance should not be located next to ovens, grills or other sources of high heat.
5. The appliance must be installed with all electrical, water and drain connections in accordance with state and local codes. A standard electrical supply (115 V AC only, 60 Hz), properly grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.
6. Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord of the appliance.
7. The size of the fuse (or circuit breaker) should be 15 amperes.
8. It is important that the appliance be leveled in order to work properly. You may need to make several adjustments to level it.
9. All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements.
10. Make certain that the pipes are not pinched, kinked or damaged during installation.
11. Check for leaks after connection.
12. Never allow children to operate, play with or crawl inside the appliance.
13. Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners may damage or discolor the interior.
14. Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Instruction Manual.
15. Keep fingers out of the “pinch point” areas. Clearances between the door and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful closing the door when children are in the area.

Before discarding your old appliance:

1. Take off the doors
2. Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

Before connecting the appliance 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 with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

Keep 4″ of space between the back and the sides of the unit and 11” at the top to allow proper air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser.

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

This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~60Hz three-prong grounded electrical outlet. 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 responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance.

If you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.

Tools needed:

• Phillips head screwdriver
• 5/16″ socket and rachet
• Flat-head screwdriver
• Masking tape
• Putty knife

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

Dust accumulates behind and on the unit should be cleaned regularly to ensure cooling efficiency and energy consumption.

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.

The interior of the refrigerator 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.

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.

1. Lift up the front of the glass shelf, and then pull the shelf out.
2. Clean as needed.
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 appliance 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 appliance 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 appliance shall not be laid upside down or horizontally, or be vibrated; the inclination during movement shall be no more than 45°.

Leave the appliance operating during vacations of less than three weeks.

If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn the unit off. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open if necessary.
