{ In refiigerators with automatic icemakers,

avoid contact with the moving parts of the

ejector mechanism, or with the heating element

that releases the cubes. Do not place fingers or

hands on the mltomatic icemaking mechanism

while the refrigerator is plugged in.

@Keep fingers out of the "pinch point" areas;

clearances between the doors and hetween

the doors and cabinet are necessarily small.

ADANGER!RISKOFCHILDENTRAPMENT

PROPERDISPOSALOFTHEREFRIGERATOR

Child enn'apment and suffocation are not problems

of the past. Junked or abmldoned refiigerators are

still dangerous...even if they"will sit fbr ".just a few

days." @you are getting rid of your old refiigerato_;

please follow the instructions below to help prevent

accidents.

Before YouThrowAway YourOldRefrigerator

or Freezer:

@Take off the doors.

@Leave the shelves in place so that children may

not easily climb inside.

CFCDisposal

Your old refiigeramr may have a cooling system

that used CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are

believed to harm sn'atospheric ozone.

If you are throwing away your old re@igerato_; make

sure the CFC refrigerant is removed for proper

disposal by a qualified servicm: lfyou intentionally

release this CFC refiigerant you can be subject to

fines and imprisonment under provisions of

environmental legislation.

USEOFEXTENSIONCORDS

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend

against the use of an extension cord.

However, ify_u must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed (in the United

States) or a (_@-listed (in Canada), @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.

IMPORTANTSAFETYINFORMATION.

READALLINSTRUCTIONSBEFOREUSING.

AWARNING!

HOWTOCONNECTELECTRICITY

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) ,a_ll oudet 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 oudet is

properly grounded.

If the outlet is a standard 2-prong oudet, it is your

personal responsibility" and obligation to have it

replaced with a properly" grounded 3-prong wall

oudeL

The refrigerator should always be plugged into its

owql indMdual electrical oudet which has a voltage

rating that matches tim rating plate.

This provides the best performance and also

prevents overloading house wiring circuits which

could cause a fire hazard fi'om overheated wires.

Never unplug your refiigerator by pulling on the

power cord. _Mwaysgrip plug firmly and pull

sn'aight out from the outlet.

Repair or replace immediately" all power cords that

have hecome 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 refiigerator away from the

wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the

power cord.

USEOFADAPTERPLUGS_Adapt_rplugsnotpermitted 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 adapte_, where local

codes permit, a temporaryconnectionmay be made

m a properly grounded 2-prong wall outlet by"use

ofa UL-listed adapter available at most local

hardware stores.

The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with

the larger slot in the wall outlet to provide proper

polarity" in tim connection of tim power cord.

When disconnecting the power cord from the

adapter, always hold the adapter in place with one

hand while pulling the power cord plug wifll the

oflmr hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground

terminal is veiT likely to break with repeated use.

If the adapter ground terminal breaks, DONOTUSE

the refrigerator until a proper ground has been

established.
