Your old refrigerator
may have a cooling
system
that
used CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons).
CFCs are
believed
to harm stratospheric
ozone.
If you are throwing
away your old refrigerator,
make
sure the CFC refrigerant
is removed
for proper
disposal
by a qualified
servicer.
If you intentionally
release this CFC refrigerant,
you can be subject to
fines and imprisonment
under provisions
of
environmental
legislation.
IMPORTANT:
Please read carefully.
TO CONNECT

Electrical
Shock Hazard
FOR PERSONAL
SAFETY,
this appliance
must
be properly
grounded.
Have the wall outlet and
the circuit checked
by a qualified
electrician
to
make sure the outlet is properly
grounded.

RECOMMENDED
GROUNDING
METHOD
The refrigerator
should
always
be plugged
into its
own individual
properly
grounded
electrical
outlet
rated for 115 Volts, 60 Hz, AC only, and fused at 15
or 20 amperes.
This provides
the best performance
and also prevents
overloading
house wiring circuits
which could cause a fire hazard from overheated
wires.
It is recommended
that a separate
circuit
serving only this appliance
be provided.
Use a receptacle
which cannot
be turned
off with a
switch or pull chain. Do not use an extension
cord.
Where a standard
two-prong
wall outlet is
encountered,
it is your personal
responsibility
and
obligation
to have it replaced
with a properly
grounded
three-prong
wall outlet.
Do not, under any circumstances,
cut or remove
the third (ground)
prong from the power
cord.
Do not use an adapter
plug.
NOTE: Before performing
any type of installation,
cleaning, or removing
a light bulb, disconnect
the
refrigerator from the electrical source.
NOTE: Some models
have LED interior lighting and
service should
be performed
by a qualified
technician.
When you are are finished,
reconnect
the refrigerator
to the electrical
source and reset the control
(Thermostat,
Refrigerator
Control,
or Freezer
Control,
depending
on the model)
to the desired
setting.
USE OF EXTENSION
CORDS
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the use
of an extension cord. However, if you still elect to use
an extension
cord, it is absolutely
necessary
that it
be a UL-listed
(USA), 3-wire grounding
type
appliance
extension
cord having a grounding
type
plug and outlet, and that the electrical
rating of the
cord be 15 amperes
(minimum)
and 120 volts.
Use of an extension
cord will increase
the clearance
needed for the back of the refrigerator.
