• I have just got my refrigerator home; can I plug it in right away?

    No, we recommend you let the unit stand for a minimum 2 hour period before plugging it in. There is oil in the compressor that may have moved up into the sealed system while being transported and by letting the unit stand will allow the oil to settle back to its original place. Plugging it in immediately could result in damage to the unit and negate the warranty.

  • Can I put food in my refrigerator as soon as I plug it in?

    We recommend letting the refrigerator run for a minimum of 12 hours prior to storing food inside. This will ensure that the refrigerator is functioning normally and prevent any possible food loss.

  • Can I run a small appliance (i.e. microwave, coffee maker) on top of my refrigerator?

    No we recommend you do not operate any appliance from on top of the refrigerator or run any appliance from the same circuit as the refrigerator.

  • Can I install my compact refrigerator/keg cooler directly into my bar?

    Yes, however it is mandatory that the unit receive proper ventilation once built in. A minimum space of 2 inches clearance must be provided around the unit and a minimum of 6 inches between the back of the unit and the wall. Failure to do so could result in damage to the unit and void the warranty.

  • What is the temperature range of my refrigerator/freezer?

    Normal temperature range of a refrigerator is +35˚ F (1˚C) to +45˚ F (7˚C) and -5˚ F (-20˚C) to + 5˚ F (-15˚C) for a freezer. * Please note that the temperature may fluctuate +/- 2˚ F.

  • Can I operate my fridge/freezer in my garage?

    Your fridge/freezer is designed to operate in normal room temperature 72˚ F (22˚C). Operation in temperatures that are too cool or too hot can cause refrigerant migration that affects the ability of the compressor bearing wear. This could damage the unit and may void the warranty.

  • I just purchased a black 9102 fridge and it makes "frog" sounds that come from the back of it. Should I be concerned?? Sounds like some fluid bubbling or traveling in the back, but it is quite loud.

    It is definitely normal for a fridge or freezer to make gurgling or bubbling noises. These sounds are a result of the refrigerant traveling through the lines in the fridge. This noise is different in every fridge and may be amplified if the unit is in an enclosed space (right next to a wall) or on a wood floor.

  • I have a dual zone wine cooler and I drink more red wine than white wine. Can I switch the zones so that I can store my white wine on top and my red wine on bottom?

    The temperature range for the top zone is programmed to accommodate red wine and therefore does not get cold enough to chill white wine.

  • I just got my wine cooler home; can I plug it in right away?

    No, we recommend you let the unit stand for a minimum 2 hour period before plugging it in. There is oil in the compressor that may have moved up into the sealed system while being transported. Letting the unit stand allows the oil time to settle back to its original place. Plugging it in immediately could result in damage to the unit and negate the warranty.

  • Can I run a small appliance (i.e. microwave, coffee maker) on top of my wine cooler?

    No we recommend you do not operate any appliance from on top of the wine cooler or run any appliance from the same circuit as the cooler.

  • Can I install my compact wine cooler directly into my bar?

    Yes, however it is mandatory that the unit receive proper ventilation once built in. A minimum space of 2 inches clearance must be provided at the top and sides of the unit, and a minimum of 4 inches between the back of the unit and the wall. Failure to do so could result in damage to the unit and void the warranty.
