Installation; Energy Saving Tips - Crosley CRD2121NW Guía De Uso Y Cuidado

Installation

Your new refrigerator was packed carefully for shipment.
E
Remove and discard shelf packing and tape.
Location
• Allow for a free flow of air through the front base grille.
• Install the refrigerator where the room temperature will not go
below 55° F (13° C). With temperatures below 55° F (13° C),
the refrigerator will not run frequently enough to maintain
proper temperature in the freezer.
• Allow a minimum
for ease of installation. If refrigerator is placed with the door
hinge side against a wall, you may want to allow additional
space so the door can be opened wider.
• Use caution when installing the unit on vinyl or hardwood
floors so as not to mark or otherwise damage the flooring.
A piece of plywood, a rug or other material should be used to
protect the floor while positioning the unit.
Leveling
To enhance its appearance and to maintain performance, your
refrigerator should be leveled after it has been rolled into its
final location.
• Adjust the leveling/lock screws beneath each front corner at
the base of the cabinet.
Turn these leveling / screws clockwise to raise a cabinet
corner and counterclockwise to lower a cabinet corner.
• If the floor is not level and it is necessary to raise the rear of
the cabinet, we suggest rolling the rear wheels onto a piece
of plywood or other shim material.
• Refrigerator models that have adjustable wheels can be
leveled by removing the base grille and adjusting the wheels
with a 1/4" socket or screwdriver. (See figure 2.)

Front Base Grille (on select models)
The front base grille (select models) which was packaged inside
the refrigerator for shipment and should be installed after the
refrigerator has been leveled.
"Snap on" style :
• To install, align the spring clips with the round openings in the
cabinet and push each end in until the grille locks into place.
• To remove this style of base grille, grasp both ends and pull
straight out.
"Screw on" style :
• Use a Phillips screwdriver to
remove the two Phillips head
screws at the base of the
refrigerator.
• Align the base grille to the screw holes. (The cut out side on
the base grille installs around the lower hinge of the door.)
• Secure the base grille into place by reinstalling the Phillips
screws back into their original screw holes.
• Reverse these steps to remove this style of base grille.

Energy Saving Tips

• Locate the refrigerator away from heat producing appliances
such as the range or dishwasher, heat vents and direct
sunlight.
• Level the refrigerator and do not block ventilation around the
front base grille.
• Let hot dishes cool slightly before putting into the refrigerator
or freezer.
• Cover liquids.
• Keep the freezer full to near capacity so less cold air will
escape during door openings. When the freezer is less than
full, place milk cartons half full of water in the freezer.
• Wipe moisture from the outside of containers before placing
them into the refrigerator.
• Avoid opening the doors too often.
