DANGER! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as

described in this Owner’s Manual.

WARNING!

This refrigerator must be properly

installed and located in

accordance with the Installation

Instructions before it is used.

Do not allow children to climb,

stand or hang on the shelves

in the refrigerator. They could

damage the refrigerator and

seriously injure themselves.

Do not store or use gasoline or

other flammable vapors and

liquids in the vicinity of this or

any other appliance.

Before replacing a burned-out

light bulb, the refrigerator

should be unplugged in order to

avoid contact with a live wire

filament. (A burned-out light bulb

may break when being

replaced.)

Keep fingers out of the “pinch

point” areas; clearances between

the doors and cabinet are

necessarily small. Be careful

closing doors when children

are in the area.

Unplug the refrigerator before

cleaning and making repairs.

Turning the temperature control

dial to the 0position stops

cooling but does not shut off

power to the refrigerator.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions

should be followed, including the following:

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Child entrapment and suffocation

are not problems of the past.

Junked or abandoned refrigerators

are still dangerous… even if they

will sit for “just a few days.” If you

are getting rid of your old

refrigerator, please follow the

instructions below to help prevent

accidents.

Before You Throw Away Your

Old Refrigerator or Freezer:

Take off the doors.

Leave the shelves in place so

that children may not easily

climb inside.

Refrigerants

All refrigeration products contain

refrigerants, which under federal

law must be removed prior to

product disposal. If you are getting

rid of an old refrigeration product,

check with the company handling

the disposal about what to do.

PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE REFRIGERATOR

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

Safety Instructions Operating Instructions Troubleshooting Tips Consumer SupportInstallation Instructions

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 must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary

that it be a CSA-listed, 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.

HOW TO CONNECT 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 3-prong

(grounding) plug which

mates with a standard 3-prong

(grounding) wall outlet to minimize

the possibility of electric shock

hazard from this appliance.

Have the wall outlet and circuit

checked by a qualified electrician

to make sure the outlet is properly

grounded.

If you have only a standard

2-prong wall outlet, it is your

personal responsibility and

obligation to have it replaced with

a properly grounded

3-prong wall outlet.

The refrigerator should always be

plugged into its own individual

electrical outlet which has a

voltage rating that matches the

rating plate.

This provides the 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. Always

grip plug firmly and pull straight

out from the outlet.

Repair or replace immediately all

power cords that have become

frayed or otherwise damaged.

Do not use a cord that shows

cracks or abrasion damage along

its length or at either end.

When moving the refrigerator

away from the wall, be careful

not to roll over or damage the

power cord.

Control Settings

The temperature control maintains the temperature in the refrigerator. 1

is the warmest setting; higher numbers are colder settings with 7being

the coldest setting. The typical setting is 3.

Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the desired temperature.

If you want a colder or warmer temperature, move the dial one setting at

a time. Moving the control to Ostops cooling but does not turn off the

power to the refrigerator. Setting the control too high may cause freezing

in the refrigerator depending on the room temperature.

How To Test Temperatures

Use the milk test. Place a container of milk on a shelf and check it

a day later. If the milk is too warm or too cold, adjust the temperature

control.

After changing the control, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach

the temperature you have set.

The control will look like the one above.

The arrow indicates the setting selected.

Freezer Compartment

This compartment is designed for production of ice cubes and short-

term storage of some commercially frozen foods.

Door Shelves

Shelves on the door provide convenient storage for frequently

used items. The fresh food doors are capable of storing large bottles

for your convenience.

Cleaning the Outside

Keep the outside clean. Wipe with a clean cloth lightly dampened

with kitchen appliance wax or mild liquid dish detergent. Dry and

polish with a clean, soft cloth.

Do not wipe the refrigerator with a soiled dish cloth or wet towel.

These may leave a residue that can erode the paint. Do not use

scouring pads, powdered cleaners, bleach or cleaners containing

bleach because these products can scratch and weaken the paint

finish.

Protect the paint finish. The finish on the outside of the refrigerator

is a high quality, baked-on paint finish. With proper care, it will

stay new-looking and rust-free for years. Apply a coat of kitchen/

appliance wax when the refrigerator is new, and then at least

twice a year.

Cleaning the Inside

To help prevent odors, leave an open box of baking soda in the

refrigerator.

Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning. If this is not practical,

wring excess moisture out of sponge or cloth when cleaning

around the control.

Use warm water and baking soda solution–about a tablespoon

(15 ml) of baking soda to a quart (1 liter) of water. This both

cleans and neutralizes odors. Rinse and wipe dry.

Other parts of the refrigerator–including door gaskets, fruit

and vegetable drawers, and all plastic parts–can be cleaned

the same way.

Do not wash any plastic refrigerator parts in the dishwasher.

Replacing the Light Bulb

Unplug the refrigerator before replacing a burned-out bulb. Setting

the controls to 0does not remove power to the light circuit.

The light bulb is located behind the temperature control housing and

is visible through the clear lens.

Using a Philips screwdriver, unscrew the lens and pull horizontally until

the lens is removed. Gently unscrew the light bulb and replace with a

bulb of 15 watts or less.

Defrosting

Defrost whenever frost on the wall of the Freezer compartment

becomes 1/4” (64 mm) thick. Never use a sharp or metallic

instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils.

(A punctured cooling coil will cause serious problems and void the

warranty.) We recommend using a plastic scraper. Do not use any

electrical device in defrosting your refrigerator.

To defrost:

Remove foods from the Freezer and Fresh Food compartments.

Set the temperature control dial to 0.

Place a towel in the Freezer Compartment to soak up water.

Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster, keep the

door open. Also using a hair dryer on the low setting may speed

defrosting.

Warning: using excessive heat may damage the plastic liner!

Do not pour water into the Freezer or Fresh Food compartments.

After defrosting:

Empty water from the drip tray. Wash the tray with warm water.

Wipe the Freezer and Fresh Food compartments with a damp cloth.

Turn the temperature control to the desired setting and return food

to the refrigerator.

NOTE: If ice buildup is very thick, it may keep the ice tray

compartment door from opening or closing completely. Don’t try to

force it open; after defrosting, the door will open and close easily.

Preparing for Vacation

For long vacations or absences, remove food and unplug the

refrigerator. Move the control to the 0position, and clean the interior

with a baking soda solution of one tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda

to one quart (1 liter) of water. Leave the door open.

Preparing to Move

Secure all loose items such as shelves and ice trays by taping them

securely in place to prevent damage.

Be sure the refrigerator stays in an upright position during moving.

Preparing to install the refrigerator.

Read these instructions completely and carefully.

Refrigerator Location

Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go below

50°F (10°C) because it will not run often enough to maintain proper

temperatures.

Install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully loaded.

Do not install it closer than 5”(13 cm) next to a range.

Do not install it in a recessed area.

Do not build in the refrigerator.

Clearances

Allow the following clearances for ease of installation and proper

air circulation.

Sides 1/2” (13 mm)

Top 2” (51 mm)

Back 2” (51 mm)*

*From the rear cabinet surface to the wall

Leveling Legs (on some models)

Adjustable legs at the front corners of the refrigerator

should be set so the refrigerator is firmly positioned on

the floor and the front is raised just enough that the door

closes easily when opened about halfway.

To adjust the leveling legs, turn the legs

counterclockwise to lower the refrigerator, clockwise to

raise it.
