USEOFEXTENSIONCORDS

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 necessarx that it be a UiAisted,

3-wire gmtmding type appliance extension cord haxing a ,gr°unding, tX,'l)el)lug, and outlet and

that the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and 12(1 xolts.

WARNING!

HOWTOCONNECTELECTRICITY

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

For personal safety, this appfiance 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 bv a

qualified electrician to make sm'e the outlet is

properly grounded.

Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is

encotmtered, it is y()ur pers()nal resp()nsibility

and obligati()n t() have it replaced with a

properly grotmded 3-prong wall outlet.

The refrigerator sh(mld always be pltlgged into

its own individual electrical outlet which has a

voltage rating that matches the rating plate.

This provides the best peril)finance and also

prexents oxerloading house wiring circtfits which

cotfld cause a fire hazard from oxerheated wires.

Never tmphlg your refrigerator by pulling on the

power cord. Always grip pltlg firmly and ptfll

straight out fl'om 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 refl'igerator away fl'om the

wall, be careflfl not to roll over or damage the

power cord.

in a 24-hem" period, depending on

openings and other use conditions.

There are two bpes of icemaket_: power

switch models and teeler arm models.

If the refl{gerator is operated befin'e

the water connection is made to the

icemakei; set the power switch to 0 (off)

or move the feeler aml to the STOP(up)

position.

When the refl_gerator has been

connected to the water SUl)l)ly, set the

power switch to the I(0n)position or move

tile teeler aml to the ON (down) position.

(-)n power switch models, the green light

will come on,

You will hear a buzzing sotmd each time

the icemaker fills with water.

The icemaker will fill with water when

it cools to ] 5°E A newly-installed

refl'igerator mav take ] 2 to 24 hours

to begin making ice cubes.

Throw away the first few batches of ice

to allow the water line to clear.

Be sure nothing interferes with the

sweep of the feeler arm.

When the bin fills to the level of the

feeler arm, tile icemaker will stop

producing ice.

It is normal fin" several cubes to be joined

together.

If ice is not used fl'equently, old ice cubes

will become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.

On power switch models, the green power

light will blink if ice cubes get stuck in the

icemaket: To correct this, set the power

switch to 0 (off)and remove the cubes. Set

the power switch to I (0/1) to restart the

icemaket: ,Mter the icemaker has been

turned on again, there will be a delay of

about 45 minutes before the icemaker

NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water

pressure, you may hear the icemaker cycle

multipletimes when makingone batch of ice.
