!CAUTION
!CAUTION
!WARNING
EXCESSIVE WEIGHT HAZARD
Use two or more people to move product.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
Remove Interior Packaging
Your appliance has been packed for shipment with all parts
that could be damaged by movement securely fastened.
Remove internal packing materials and any tape holding in-
ternal components in place. The owners manual is shipped
inside the product in a plastic bag along with the warranty
registration card, and other accessory items.
Important
Keep your carton and packaging until your appliance has
been thoroughly inspected and found to be in good condi-
tion. If there is damage, the packaging will be needed as
proof of damage in transit. Afterwards please dispose of all
items responsibly in particular the plastic bags which can
be a suocation hazard.
Note to Customer
This merchandise was carefully packed and thoroughly
inspected before leaving our plant. Responsibility for its
safe delivery was assumed by the retailer upon acceptance
of the shipment. Claims for loss or damage sustained in
transit must be made to the retailer.
DO NOT RETURN DAMAGED MERCHANDISE TO THE
MANUFACTURER - FILE THE CLAIM WITH THE RE-
TAILER.
If the unit was shipped or has been laying on its back for
any period of time allow the appliance to sit upright for a
period of at least 24 hours before plugging in. This will as-
sure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging the appliance
in immediately may cause damage to internal parts.
Help Prevent Tragedies
Child entrapment and suocation are not problems of the
past. Junked or abandoned appliances are still dangerous -
even if they sit out for "just a few days".
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerators and freezers,
please follow the instructions below to help prevent acci-
dents.
Before you throw away your old appliance or freezer:
• Take o the doors or remove the drawers.
• Leave the shelves in place so children may not easily
climb inside.
Figure 1
It is important you send in your warranty registration card
immediately after taking delivery of your appliance.
The following information will be required when registering
your unit.
Model Number
Serial Number
Date of Purchase
Dealer’s name and address
The model number and serial number can be found on the
serial plate which is located inside the cabinet on the left
side near the top. See gure 1.

INSTALLING YOUR REFRIGERATOR OR FREEZER
Leveling Legs
Front Grille,
keep this area
open.
Figure 2
Front Grille
Do not obstruct the front grill. The openings within the front
grill allow air to ow through the condenser heat exchanger.
Restrictions to this air ow will result in increased energy
usage and loss of cooling capacity. For this reason it is im-
portant this area to not be obstructed and the grill openings
kept clean. Marvel does not recommend the use of custom
made grills as air ow may be restricted because of inad-
equate openings. (See Figure 2).
Select Location
The proper location will ensure peak performance of your
appliance. We recommend a location where the unit will
be out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. To
ensure your product performs to specications the recom-
mended installation location temperature range is from 55
to 100°F (13 to 38°C).
Cabinet Clearance
Ventilation is required from the bottom front section of the
unit. Keep this area open and clear of any obstructions.
Adjacent cabinets and counter top can be installed around
the unit as long as the grille and door access remain unob-
structed.
Leveling Legs
Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the unit
should be set so the unit is rmly positioned on the oor
and level from side to side and front to back. The overall
height of your appliance may be adjusted from
33 3⁄4” (85.7cm) with the leveling legs turned in, and up to
34 3⁄4” (88.3cm) with the leveling legs extended.
To adjust the leveling legs, place the appliance on a solid
surface and protect the oor beneath the legs to avoid
scratching the oor. With the assistance of another person,
lean the appliance back enough to access the front leveling
legs and remove the weight. Raise or lower the legs to the
required dimension by turning the legs. Repeat this process
for the rear by tilting the appliance forward using caution to
prevent the door from opening. On a level surface check
the appliance for levelness and adjust accordingly.
The front grille (toe kick) screws may be loosened and ad-
justed to the desired height. When adjustment is complete
tighten the two toe kick screws. (See Figure 3).

USING THE MICROSENTRY II ™CONTROL
NOTE
Starting your appliance
The appliance will begin start up when initially plugged in or
when power resumes after a power outage. If the appliance
has been turned o during use, “OFF” will appear on the
display. To start the appliance from the “OFF” position press
and hold the ON/OFF button for three seconds.
Set temperature
To set the set temperature, press and continue to hold
“SET” button. After one second, set temperature will be
displayed. While holding “SET” button use the “WARMER”
or “COLDER” button to desired set temperature.
Momentarily pressing & releasing “SET” button will access
information menu of control. Refer to appendix A for infor-
mation on this feature.
Appliance operation
The available temperature range of the refrigerator is 1° to
7° C. For the freezer it is -12° to -25° C.
It may take up to 24 hours for your appliance to reach de-
sired temperature. This will depend on amount of contents
loaded and number of openings and closings of the door.
For best results allow the appliance to “pull down” to de-
sired set temperature before loading. Once contents are
loaded, allow at least 48 hours for temperature to stabilize
before making any adjustments to the set temperature.
Alarms
Your MicroSentry II™ appliance control will monitor ap-
pliance function and alert you with a series of audible and
visual alarms. For all alarm and error codes, the alarm
LED located in the top left corner of the display panel will
illuminate a steady amber. For all alarm and error codes
except condenser cleaning, an audible alarm will sound,
beeping in one (1) second intervals.
• Door Ajar Alarm: If the door has been
left open for over ve (5) minutes, the alarm
will sound and the display panel will ash
“do.” The alarm will stop once the door has been closed.
• High and Low Temperature Alarm: If
your unit reaches an unacceptable tempera-
ture, above or below your set temperature for
a period of greater than 60 minutes, the tem-
perature alarm will sound in one (1) second
intervals. The display panel will ash either “hi” or “Lo” de-
pending upon the condition. “hi” indicates a high tempera-
ture alarm, and “Lo” indicates a low temperature alarm.
The factory preset for the "hi" and "Lo" temperature devia-
tion is +2°C from set temperature for the "hi" and -2°C from
set temperature for the "Lo". If these temperature variations
need to be adjusted, please call Marvel customer service at
800-223-3900 for instructions.
• Temperature Sensor Fault: If the control
detects that the temperature sensor is not
properly functioning, an audible alarm will
sound, and “E1” will ash on the display. Please call
Marvel customer service or your dealer if this error code is
displayed.
• Condenser Needs Cleaning: When the
appliance has reached the recommended
amount of run time for a condenser cleaning,
“cL” will ash on the display as a reminder to clean the con-
denser. No audible alarm is associated with the condenser
clean warning. To clear the alarm:
1) Press and release the SET key until “cnd”
is displayed on the screen.
2) While “cnd” is displayed, press and hold the SET
key. The display will show the number of weeks the
condenser has been operating.
3) Continue to hold the SET key, then press and re
lease the ON/OFF key. The number shown on the
display will be reset to 00.
4) Release the SET key.
5) The display will return to normal operation after a
few seconds with no key presses.

FEATURES
6CARFX features
There are three adjustable shelves for exibility of content
storage. The shelves can move up or down to accommo-
date various content sizes.
4 CAFX features
There is one wire shelf.
Lock and Key (optional)
The optional lock and key allow you to lock and store con-
tents.
Content Temperature versus Air Temperature
Air temperature moves up and down with door openings
and compressor run and o cycles. Air has little thermal
mass and therefore changes temperature relatively quickly
between on/o cycles. Stored contents have much higher
thermal mass so their temperatures change much slower.
Always measure temperature with a mass weighted sensor
to determine if the contents being stored are at the proper
temperature.
Probe Port (optional)
The optional probe port is a hole from the inside to the
outside of the unit, which is located on the back of the
unit. (See Figure 8). Remove the black bushing and foam
plug(s) from the hole in the back of the unit, insert your
probe or wires through the bushing and hole in the back
of the unit. Seal hole with foam plug(s) and replace black
bushing.
