Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure you have cleared the appropriate footprint and accounted for ventilation gaps around the sides and back to allow the motor to breathe. Use the adjustable feet to level the unit, which prevents vibration and door misalignment. The reversible door setup requires basic tools and should be performed with a second person to avoid damaging the hinges. To clean, switch off the power and use a mild detergent with a soft cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the internal plastic or glass. Dust the rear condenser coils once or twice a year to maintain energy efficiency.
