Instruction Manual
Wolf WRDC140 Refrigeratior
To ensure proper use of this appliance and your safety, please read the following instructions completely before operating this appliance.
Before Putting Into Use
- Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, let the unit stand upright for 4 hours, which will reduce the possibility of the cooling system malfunctioning due to improper handling.
- Clean your unit thoroughly before putting into use. (See How to Clean)
- Use the parts diagram on page 3 to insure proper positioning of internal components.
Tips for Energy Savings
- Keep the refrigerator and freezer doors closed as much as possible, particularly in warm / humid conditions.
- Maintain adequate ventilation around the back and sides of the unit.
- Maintain a thermostat setting of between “3” and “5” under normal use.
- Allow warm food to cool to room temperature before placing in the refrigerator or freezer.
- Excessive ice build up will increase energy consumption. Defrost the unit when ice / frost is ¼” thick.
Important Safety Instructions
DANGER: Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:
- Take off the doors.
- Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
- The appliance must be correctly connected to the power supply. (See: “HOW TO INSTALL”).
- Do not use an extension cord as this can negatively affect the performance of the unit.
- Do not touch the cooled surfaces while the appliance operates, especially not with wet hands, because the skin may stick to the cold surfaces.
- Do not freeze bottled liquids such as carbonated soft drink, beer, wine, etc. Doing so can cause glass bottles and aluminum cans to rupture.
- If the unit fails to cool properly, dispose of spoiled food as needed.
- All repairs should be made by a qualified service technician. Repairs made by non-qualified personnel will void the warranty.
- Do not defrost the appliance with other electric devices (hair dryer etc.) and never scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp tools.
- The rating plate is inside the appliance or outside on the rear wall.

HOW TO OPERATE
Starting Your New Refrigerator
- Clean the refrigerator thoroughly. Wipe the outside with a soft dry cloth, the interior with a clean moist cloth.
- Insert the power supply cord into the socket.
- Turn the thermostat dial to “7”. Close the door and let the refrigerator operate for 15-20 minutes.
- Reduce the thermostat to a mid-range setting between “3” and “5” on the thermostat control.
Temperature Control
To control the internal temperature, adjust the thermostat dial. “1” is the warmest setting. “7” is the coldest.
The Dial may be set any place on the scale. It does not have to be set exactly on a number. To make ice cubes in the freezer compartment, adjust the thermostat to the coldest setting.
Note: Wait 3-5 minutes before restarting if you unplug the refrigerator. The unit may fail to operate properly if restarted too quickly.
How To Defrost
Defrost the freezer compartment when the ice / frost is approximately ¼” thick. Set the thermostat dial to “0” to defrost. Remove all contents from the freezer compartment. Leave the freezer door open to allow accumulated ice / frost to melt. Remove large pieces of ice as needed. Do not use hot water or other electric heating devices to melt the accumulated ice. After defrosting, remove accumulated ice / water and wipe the freezer compartment dry with a soft cloth. Restart the unit per starting instructions.
Never use a knife or other sharp metal instrument to scrape ice/frost from the evaporator.
HOW TO CLEAN
- Cleaners: Never use harsh, abrasive cleaners, heavy-duty cleaners, or solvents on any surface.
- Exterior: Wipe with damp, sudsy cloth, rinse and dry. For stubborn stains and for periodic waxing, use silicon wax.
- Freezer: When refrigerator needs defrosting turn thermostat to “OFF” (“0”). Do not use sharp instruments to scrap off ice/frost.
- Refrigeration Section: Wash shelves and other removable parts in warm sudsy water, rinse and dry. Wash interior with baking soda solution (3 tablespoons to I liter of water) or warm sudsy water, rinse and dry.
- Magnetic Door Seals: Wash with warm sudsy water.
- The Finishing Touch: Replace all parts and return thermostat dial to desired setting.
HOW TO INSTALL
- Install refrigerator in a convenient location away from extreme heat and cold. Allow sufficient clearance between the refrigerator and side wall so the door will open without obstruction. Refrigerator is not designed for recessed installation.
- Select a space with strong level floor.
- Allow 5 inches of space between the refrigerator’s side and the wall.
- The appliance must be correctly connected to the power supply.
- Do not use an extension cord.
POWER CORD REPLACEMENT
If the refrigerator’s power cord is damaged, have it replaced by a qualified repair agent.
Care and Maintenance
WHAT TO DO …
When the fridge is not in use for a prolonged period:
- Remove the plug from the outlet.
- Remove all contents from the fridge.
- Dry the interior and leave the door open for a few days.
When you wish to move the fridge:
- Secure all movable parts and contents. (Package them separately if necessary.)
- Transport the fridge only in an upright position. In any other position you may damage the compressor.
Before calling service, please follow the checklist below. This may save you an expensive service call.
If the refrigerator seems too warm inside:
- Check to see that the door is closing properly and the door seal is not damaged.
- Check that the interior circulation is not obstructed by having too many goods stored. (The fridge is overloaded)
- Did you store anything hot, without first cooling it to room temperature?
- Is there sufficient clearance around all sides and above the fridge?
If the fridge starts making any unusual noises:
- Is it wobbling? Re-level it and check if it now operates normally.
- Have any objects fallen behind the fridge? If so, remove them and check if operation is now normal.
- Are any containers inside the fridge vibrating or resonating? If so, rearrange them then check to see if operation has returned to normal.
