plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the voltage
listed on the refrigerator's rating plate.
- This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading of house wiring circuits, which
could overheat the wires and cause a fire hazard.
•
If the wall socket is loose, do not insert the power plug.
- There is a risk of electric shock of fire.

shock.
