PROPER DISPOSAL OFYOUR REFRIGERATOR OR

FREEZER

FORYOUR SAFETY

,, Do not store or use gasoline, or other flammable liquids

in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Read product

labels for warnings regarding flammability and other

hazards.

,, Do not operate the refrigerator in the presense 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 finishes if they come in

contact with other appliances or furniture.

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.

ELECTRICAL iNFORMATiON

* The refrigerator must be plugged into its own dedicated

115 Volt, 60 Nz., AC only electric 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 Iocalcodes and ordinances. Consult a

qualified electrician. Do not use an extension cord or

adapter plug.

,, If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by the

manufacturer, service technician or a qualified person to

prevent any risk.

,, Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on the power

cord. Always grip the plug firmly, 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 insufficient power

can damage the compressor. Such damage is not covered

under your warranty.

,, Do not plug the unit into an outlet controlled by a wall

switch or pull cord to prevent the refrigerator from being

turned off accidentally.

,, Avoid connecting refrigerator to a Ground Fault Interrupter

(GFI) circuit.

Risk of child entrapment

Child entrapment and

suffocation are not problems of

the past. Junked or abondoned

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.

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 qualified service

technician.

REFRIGERATOR & FREEZER CONTROLS

TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT

, Adjust temperature gradually: move the knob in small

increments, allowing the temperature to stabilize.

* For colder temperatures, turn the knob towards Colder.

* For warmer temperatures, turn the knob towards Cold.

Turning the refrigerator control will change temperatures in

both compartments. For example, if the refrigerator control is

turned to a colder setting, the freezer control may have to be

adjusted to a warmer setting. Turning the freezer control will

change only the freezer temperature.

To maintain temperatures, a fan circulates air in the

refrigerator and freezer compartments. For good circulation,

do not block cold air vents with food items.

If your refrigerator has an automatic ice maker, it will provide a

sufficient supply of ice for normal use. During the initial startup

of your refrigerator, no ice will be produced during the first 24

hours of operation. Air in new plumbing lines may cause the

ice maker to cycle two or three times before making a full tray

of ice. With no usage, it will take approximately one to two days

to fill the ice container.

New plumbing connections may cause the first production of

ice cubes to be discolored or have an odd flavor. Discard ice

made during the first 24 hours.

TURNINGYOUR iCE MAKER ON

ICE PRODUCTION:WHATTO EXPECT

The ice maker will produce 2.5 to 3 pounds of ice every 24

hours depending on usage conditions. Ice is produced at a

rate of 8 cubes every 80 to 160 minutes.

After the plumbing connections have been completed, the

water supply valve must be opened. Place the ice container

under the ice maker, pushing it as far back as possible. Lower

the wire signal arm to its "down" or ON position.

TURNINGYOUR ICE MAKER OFF

To stop the ice maker, lift the

wire signal arm until it clicks and

locks in the "up" or OFF position.

The ice maker also turns off

automatically when the ice

container is full. If your model

has an adjustable freezer shelf,

place the shelf in the lower

position, so that the wire signal

arm will hit the ice when the

container is full.

UNDERSTANDINGTHE SOUNDSYOU MAY HEAR

Your new high-efficiency refrigerator may make unfamiliar

sounds. These are all normal sounds and soon will become

familiar to you. They also indicate your refrigerator is operating

as designed. Hard surfaces, such as vinyl or wood floors,

walls, and kitchen cabinets may make sounds more

noticeable. Listed below are descriptions of some of the most

common sounds you may hear, and what is causing them.

when turning the refrigerator on and off. The timer also

produces sounds similar to an electric clock.

F. Condenser Fan

If condenser coils are located underneath your

refrigerator as shown in the drawing at the left, you

have a condenser fan. You may hear air being forced

through the condenser by the condenser fan.

G. Compressor

Modern, high-efficiency compressors operate much

faster than older models. The compressor may have a

high-pitched hum or pulsating sound.

14.Water Valve

If your refrigerator is equipped with an automatic ice

maker, you will hear a buzzing sound as the water valve

opens to fill the ice maker during each cycle.

L Drain Pan (Nonremovable)

You may hear water running into the drain pan during

the defrost cycle. The drain pan will be located on top

of the compressor for air-cooled condensers (black coils

on back of refrigerator).

J. Condenser Coils (Fan-cooled models only)

REPLACINGTHE FREEZER LIGHT BULB (SOME

MODELS)

A. Evaporator

The flow of refrigerant through the evaporator may

create a boiling or gurgling sound.

B. Evaporator Fan

You may hear air being forced through the refrigerator

by the evaporator fan.

C. Defrost Neater

During defrost cycles, water dripping onto the defrost

heater may cause a hissing or sizzling sound. After

defrosting, a popping sound may occur.

D. Automatic Ice Maker

If your refrigerator is equipped with an automatic ice

maker,you will hear ice cubes falling into the ice bin.

E. Cold Control & Defrost Timer or Automatic
