PROPER DISPOSAL OF YOUR OLD

REFRIGERATOR

wWARNING

Suffocation Hazard

Remove doors from your old

refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death or

brain damage.

IMPORTANT: 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.

INSTALLING YOUR

REFRIGERATOR

It is important to prepare your refrigerator

for use. This section tells you how to clean

it, install it, connect it to a power source,

and level it.

UNPACKING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Removing packaging materials

•Remove tape and any labels from your

refrigerator before using (except the

model and serial number label).

• To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub

the area briskly with your thumb. Tape or

glue residue can also be easily removed

by rubbing a small amount of liquid dish

soap over the adhesive with your fingers.

Wipe with warm water and dry.

•Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing

alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive

cleaners to remove tape or glue. These

products can damage the surface of your

refrigerator. For more information, see

“Important Safety Instructions” in the

“Refrigerator Safety” section.

IMPORTANT:

•Do not remove any permanent instruction

labels inside your refrigerator.

Cleaning before use

After you remove all of the packaging

materials, clean the inside of your

refrigerator before using it. See the cleaning

instructions in the “Caring For Your

Refrigerator” section for more information.

wWARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and

install refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in back or

other injury.

7.5 cm (3-inch) minimum

at top and 1.25 cm (1⁄2-inch)

minimum at sides

SPACE REQUIREMENTS

•Allow 7.5 cm (3 inches) between the

overhead cabinets and the refrigerator

top, and allow 1.25 cm (1⁄2inch) on each

side.

• Allow at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) between the

refrigerator condenser on the back and

the wall.

•If you are installing your refrigerator next

to a fixed wall, leave 5 cm (2 inches)

minimum on the hinge side (depending on

your model) to allow for the door to swing

open.

wWARNING

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors,

such as gasoline, away from

refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death,

explosion or fire.

2201959.v17.c58 7/13/99 3:30 PM Page 6

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Before you move your refrigerator into its

final location, it is important to make sure

you have the proper electrical connection.

Recommended Grounding Method

Plug 1: A 115 Volt/60 Hz AC only 15 to 20

ampere fused and properly grounded

(earthed) electrical supply is required.

Plugs 2 and 3: A 220/240 Volt/50 Hz or 220

Volt/60 Hz AC only 10 ampere fused and

properly grounded (earthed) electrical supply

is required.

NOTE: Before performing any type of

installation, cleaning, or removing a light

bulb, turn the Temperature Control to OFF

and then disconnect the refrigerator from

the electrical source. When you are finished,

connect the refrigerator to the electrical

source and reset the Temperature Control to

the desired setting.

Plug 1

Plug 3

wWARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded (earthed) outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions

can result in death, fire, or

electrical shock.

Plug 2

DOOR CLOSING AND ALIGNMENT

Door Closing

Your refrigerator has 2 front adjustable

rollers - one on the right and one on the left.

If your refrigerator seems unsteady or you

want the doors to close easier, adjust the

refrigerator’s tilt using the instructions

below:

1. Plug refrigerator power cord into a

grounded (earthed) outlet. Move the

refrigerator into its final position.

2. The two leveling screws are part of the

front roller assemblies which are at the

base of the refrigerator on either side.

3. Use a screwdriver to adjust the leveling

screws. Turn the leveling screw to the

right to raise that side of the refrigerator

or turn the leveling screw to the left to

lower that side. It may take several turns

of the leveling screws to adjust the tilt of

the refrigerator.

NOTE: Having someone push against the

top of the refrigerator takes some weight

off the leveling screws and rollers. This

makes it easier to adjust the screws.

4. Open both doors again and check to

make sure that they close as easily as

you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly

more to the rear by turning both leveling

screws to the right. It may take several

more turns, and you should turn both

leveling screws the same amount.

Door Alignment

If the space between your doors looks

uneven, you can adjust it using the

instructions below:

1. Pry off the top hinge cover.

2. Loosen the top hinge screws using a

5⁄16-inch socket or wrench.

3. Have someone hold the door in place or

put a spacer between the doors while

you tighten the top hinge screws.

4. Replace the top hinge cover.

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

SETTING THE CONTROL

The control for the refrigerator and freezer is

located in the top of the refrigerator section.

It controls the temperature in both the

refrigerator and freezer compartments.

When you first install your refrigerator,

set the Temperature Control to 3 (normal).

Temperature Control adjustments range

from 1 (warmest) to 5 (coldest).

NOTES:

• The built-in exterior moisture control

continuously guards against moisture

build-up on the outside of the refrigerator

cabinet.

• Turning the Temperature Control to OFF

stops cooling in both the refrigerator and

the freezer compartments, but does not

disconnect the refrigerator from the

power supply.

IMPORTANT: Give the refrigerator time to

cool down completely before adding food.

This could take several hours. If you add

food before the refrigerator has cooled

completely your food may spoil. Turning the

control to a higher than recommended

setting will not cool the compartment(s) any

faster. The control settings indicated in

“Changing the Control Settings” section

should be correct for normal household

refrigerator usage. The control is set correctly

when milk or juice is as cold as you like and

when ice cream is firm.

2201959.v17.c58 7/13/99 3:30 PM Page 9

ENSURING PROPER AIR

CIRCULATION

In order to ensure proper temperatures, you

need to permit air flow between the two

sections. As shown in the illustration, cool

air enters through the bottom of the freezer

section (1) and moves up. Most of the air

then flows through the freezer section vents

(2) and recirculates under the freezer floor

(3). The rest of the air enters the fresh

section through the top vent (4).

Do not block any of these vents

(1, 2, 3, or 4) with food packages. If the

vents are blocked, air flow will be prevented

and temperature and moisture problems

may occur.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates

between both sections, any odors formed in

one section will transfer to the other. You

must thoroughly clean both sections to

eliminate odors. To prevent odor transfer

and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods

tightly. (See the “Food Storage Guide”

section for details.)

REMOVING THE

DROP-IN DOOR TRIM

To remove the trim piece:

1. Remove all items from the shelf.

2. Pull straight up on each end of the trim

piece.

To replace the trim piece:

1. Locate each end of the trim piece above

the trim pocket opening.

2. Push the trim ends straight down until

they stop.

3. Replace items on the shelf.
