GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

When using this appliance, always exercise basic safety
precautions, including the following:
1. Use this appliance only for its intended purpose
as described in this owner's manual.
2. This appliance must be properly installed in accordance
with the Installation Instructions before it is used.
3. Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the
shelves in the appliance. They could seriously
injure themselves and damage the refrigerator.
4. After your appliance is in operation, do not touch
the cold surfaces in the refrigerator compartment,
particularly when hands are damp or wet.
Skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
5. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors
and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

contact with the moving parts of the ejector mechanism,
or with the heating element located on the bottom
of the ice maker. Do not place fingers or hands
on the automatic icemaking mechanism while
the refrigerator is plugged in.
NOTE
7. Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed
completely.

9. A burned-out light bulb may break when being
replaced. NOTE: Setting the refrigerator temperature
controls to OFF does not remove power to the light
circuit.

RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

m
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the
past. Junked or abandoned refrigeration products are still
dangerous – even if they will sit for "just a few days." If you
are getting rid of your old appliance, please follow these
instructions to help prevent accidents.
Before you throw away your old refrigeration product:
– Take off the doors.
– Leave the shelves in place so that children may
not easily climb inside.
Keep children away from packaging materials – Danger of
suffocation from folding cartons and cling wrap!

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The appliance comes with an UL listed, 3-wire power
supply cord.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third
(ground) prong from the power cord.
The appliance requires a 3-wire receptacle.
The receptacle must be installed by a licensed electrician
only.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered,
it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer
to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall
receptacle.
Do not use an adapter plug.
