Follow these easy steps to get your Hotpoint HTM16BBR Refrigerator up and running in no time.
Before installing, ensure that there is adequate space around the refrigerator for ventilation. Allow at least 3/4 inch on each side, 1 inch at the top, and 1 inch at the back.
Place the refrigerator in its desired location. Make sure it is level by adjusting the leveling legs if necessary to ensure it doesn’t tilt.
Plug the refrigerator into a properly grounded three-prong electrical outlet. Ensure the power supply meets the requirements specified in the installation instructions.
Locate the upfront temperature controls, which are positioned for convenience. Set the initial temperature according to the guidelines provided in the user manual before loading the refrigerator with food.
Adjust the wire shelves to your preferred height. The shelves are designed to slide out easily for customization of storage space.
Utilize the vegetable/fruit crispers for storing fresh produce, and use the tall bottle door storage for upright bottles and containers.
Ensure all components are properly installed, the door seals are airtight, and the refrigerator is operating quietly. Allow the refrigerator to reach the desired temperature before placing food inside.
