Electrical information

WARNING
You must follow these guidelines to
ensure that your refrigerator's safety
mechanisms are operating correctly.
• The refrigerator must be plugged into
its own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz,
AC-only non-GFCI electric outlet. The
power cord of the appliance is equipped
with a three-prong grounding plug for
your protection against electrical shock
hazards. It must be plugged directly
into a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle. The receptacle must be
installed in accordance with local codes
and ordinances. Consult a qualified
electrician. Do not use an extension cord
or adapter plug.
• If the power cord is damaged, it should
be replaced by the manufacturer, service
technician, or a qualified person.
• Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling
on the power cord. Always grip the
plug firmly and pull straight out from
the receptacle to prevent damaging the
power cord.
• To avoid electrical shock, unplug the
refrigerator before cleaning and before
replacing a light bulb or LED light.
• Performance may be affected if
the voltage varies by 10% or more.
Operating the refrigerator with insufficient
power can damage the compressor.
Such damage is not covered under your
warranty.
• Do not plug the unit into an outlet
controlled by a wall switch or pull cord
to prevent the refrigerator from being
turned off accidentally.
