IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READALLINSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
HOWTOCONNECT ELECTRICITY
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. For
personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
with a g-prong (grounding) plug which mates
with a standard g-prong (grounding) v_l oudet
to minimize tile possibility of electric shock hazard
from this appliance.
Have tile wall outlet and circuit checked by
a qualified electrician to make sure tile outlet
is properly grounded.
If the oudet is a standard 2-prong outlet,
it is your personal responsibility and obligation
to have it replaced with a properly grounded
3-prong wall oudet.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into
its own individual electrical outlet which has
a voltage rating that matches tile rating plate.
This provides tile best performance and also
prevents overloading house wiring circuits which
could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the
power cord. _Mwaysgrip plug firmly and pull
sn'aight out from the outlet.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords
tllat have become frayed or odmrwise damaged.
Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion
damage along its length or at either end.
When moving the refiigerator away fi'om the
wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the
power cord.
USE OF ADAPTER P LUGS (Adapter pl,gs not permitted in
Canada)
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against
the use of an adapter plug.
Howevm; if you must use an adapter, where local
codes permit, a temporary connection may be made
to a properly grounded 2-prong wall outlet by use
ofa UL-listed adapter a'_ailable at most local
hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned witll
the la_er slot in dm wall outlet to provide proper
polarity in the connection of the power cord.
When disconnecting the power cord from the
adapter, al,a-ayshold the adapter in place with one
hand while pulling the power cord plug with the
other hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break with repeated use.
If the adapter ground terminal breaks,
DO NOT USE
tlle refrigerator until a proper ground has been
established.
