Follow these easy steps to get your Hotpoint HSS22IFMCC Refrigerator up and running in no time.
Carefully remove the packaging materials. Ensure all tape and labels are removed from the refrigerator before use. Open both doors and remove all protective film covering the surfaces.
Place the refrigerator in a location with a temperature range of 60°F to 100°F (16°C to 38°C). Ensure there is enough space on all sides for air circulation, with 1/8 inch on each side, 1 inch on top, and 1 inch at the back.
Adjust the leveling legs at the bottom of the refrigerator until it is level from side to side and front to back. Use a level tool to ensure accuracy.
Connect the refrigerator to a cold water line with sufficient water pressure (20-120 psi). Ensure the water filter is installed correctly. Follow detailed instructions in the manual for secure connections.
Connect the refrigerator to a properly grounded outlet. Avoid using extension cords. Ensure the electrical supply matches the refrigerator’s requirements (115V, 60Hz).
Locate the upfront electronic temperature controls. Set the fresh food compartment to 37°F (3°C) and the freezer compartment to 0°F (-18°C). Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the set temperatures.
Adjust the wire shelves, sealed deli pan, and fruit/vegetable crisper to desired positions. Ensure the door shelves are also adjusted to accommodate items of various sizes.
Ensure the ice maker is in the 'on' position. Allow 24 hours for the first batch of ice to be produced. Discard the first few batches of ice to ensure clean water lines.
