IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

For your Safety

• DO NOT store or use gasoline, or other

ammableliquidsinthevicinityofthisor

any other appliance. Read product labels

forwarningsregardingammabilityand

other hazards.

• DO NOT operate the refrigerator in the

presence of explosive fumes.

• Avoid contact with any moving parts of

automatic ice maker.

• Remove all staples from the carton. Staples

can cause severe cuts, and also destroy

nishesiftheycomeincontactwithother

appliances or furniture.

WARNING

Please read all instructions before using this

refrigerator.

Child Safety

Destroy or recycle the carton, plastic bags, and

any exterior wrapping material immediately

after the refrigerator is unpacked. Children

should never use these items to play. Cartons

covered with rugs, bedspreads, plastic sheets

or stretch wrap may become airtight chambers,

andcanquicklycausesuffocation.

Proper Disposal of your

Refrigerator or Freezer

Risk of child entrapment

Child entrapment and suffocation are not

problems of the past. Junked or abandoned

refrigerators or freezers are still dangerous

– even if they will sit for “just a few days”. If

you are getting rid of your old refrigerator or

freezer, please follow the instructions below to

help prevent accidents.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Grounding type wall receptacle

Power cord with

3-prong grounded plug

Do not, under

any circumstances,

cut, remove,

or bypass the

grounding prong.

Electrical information

• The refrigerator must be plugged into its

own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp,

AC only electrical outlet. The power cord of

theapplianceisequippedwithathree-

prong grounding plug for your protection

against electrical shock hazards. It must be

plugged directly into a properly grounded

three prong receptacle. The receptacle

must be installed in accordance with local

codesandordinances.Consultaqualied

electrician. Avoid connecting refrigerator to

a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit. Do

not use an extension cord or adapter plug.

• If the power cord is damaged, it should

be replaced by an authorized service

technician to prevent any risk.

IMPORTANT

Pressing and holding the On/Off button for

three seconds, located on the left side of

the temperature control panel will disable

your refrigerator’s cooling system, but does

not disconnect the power to the light bulb

and other electrical components. To turn off

power to your refrigerator you must unplug

the power cord from the electrical outlet.

CAUTION

To avoid personal injury or property

damage, handle tempered glass shelves

carefully. Shelves may break suddenly if

nicked, scratched, or exposed to sudden

temperature change.

• Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on

thepowercord.Alwaysgriptheplugrmly,

and pull straight out from the receptacle to

prevent damaging the power cord.

• Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning

and before replacing a light bulb to avoid

electrical shock.

• Performance may be affected if the voltage

varies by 10% or more. Operating the

refrigeratorwithinsufcientpowercan

damage the compressor. Such damage is

not covered under your warranty.

• Do not plug the unit into an electrical outlet

controlled by a wall switch or pull cord to

prevent the refrigerator from being turned

off accidentally.

IMPORTANT

CFC/HCFC Disposal

Your old refrigerator may have a

cooling system that used CFCs

orHCFCs(chlorouorocarbonsor

hydrochlorouorocarbons).CFCsandHCFCs

are believed to harm stratospheric ozone if

released to the atmosphere. Other refrigerants

may also cause harm to the environment if

released to the atmosphere.

If you are throwing away your old refrigerator,

make sure the refrigerant is removed for

properdisposalbyaqualiedtechnician.If

you intentionally release refrigerant, you may

besubjecttonesandimprisonmentunder

provisions of environmental legislation.

Proper Disposal of Refrigerators/

Freezers

We strongly encourage responsible appliance

recycling/disposal methods. Check with your utility

company or visit www.energystar.gov/recycle for

more information on recycling your old refrigerator.

Before you throw away your old

refrigerator/freezer:

• Remove doors.

• Leave shelves

in place so

children may

not easily

climb inside.

• Have

refrigerant

removed by

aqualied

service technician.

INSTALLATION

CAUTION

Do Not install the refrigerator where the

temperature will drop below 55°F (13°C) or

rise above 110°F (43°C). The compressor

will not be able to maintain proper

temperatures inside the refrigerator.

Do Not block the toe grille on the lower front

ofyourrefrigerator.Sufcientaircirculation

is essential for the proper operation of your

refrigerator.

This Use & Care Guide provides general

installation and operating instructions for

your model. We recommend using a service

or kitchen contracting professional to install

your refrigerator. Use the refrigerator only as

instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before

starting the refrigerator, follow these important

rststeps.

Location

• Choose a place that is near a grounded,

non-GFCI, electrical outlet. Do Not use an

extension cord or an adapter plug.

• If possible, place the refrigerator out of

direct sunlight and away from the range,

dishwasher, or other heat sources.

• Therefrigeratormustbeinstalledonaoor

that is level and strong enough to support

a fully loaded refrigerator.

• Consider water supply availability for

modelsequippedwithanautomaticice

maker.

• Allow the following clearances for ease

of installation, proper air circulation, and

plumbing and electrical connections:

Sides & Top 3/8 inch (9.5 mm)

Back 1 inch (25.4 mm)

Door opening

Your refrigerator should be positioned to allow

easy access to a counter when removing

food. For best use of refrigerator drawers and

freezer baskets, the refrigerator should be in a
