Use of adapter plug
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we strongly
recommend against use of an adapter
plug. However, if you still elect to use
an adapter, where local codes permit,
a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may
be made to a properly grounded -
twoprong wall receptacle by use of
a UL listed adapter (Fig. 2) available
at most local hardware stores.
TEMPORARYMETHOD
(ADAPTER PLUGS NOT
PERMITTED IN CANADA)
R
The larger slot in the adapter must be
aligned with the larger slot in the wail
receptacle to provide proper polarity
in the connection of the power cord.
CAUTION: Attaching adapter
ground terminal to wall receptacle
cover screw does not ground the
appliance unless cover screw is
metal, and not insulated, and wall
receptacle is grounded through
house wiring. Customer should
have the circuit checked by a qual-
ified electrician to make sure the
receptacle is properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power
cord from the adaptef, always hold
the adapter with one hand. If this
is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is;tiery likely to break
with repeated use.
Should the adapter ground
terminal break, DO NOT USE the
appliance until a proper ground
has again been established.
Use of extension cords
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we strongly
recommend against the use of an
extension cord. However, if you still
elect to use an extension cord, it is
absolutely necessary that it be a UL
listed 3-wire grounding type appli-
ance extension cord and that the
current carrying rating of the cord be
15 amperes minimum. Such exten-
sion cords are obtainable through
your local service organization.
The refrigerator should always
be plugged into
its own
individual electrical outlet—
(115 volt, 60 Hertz, or 100 volt,
50 Hertz, single phase AC).
This is recommended for best
performance and to prevent over-
loading house wiring circuits,
which could cause a possible fire
hazard from overheating wires.
Refrigerator Installation
Location
Do not install refrigerator where
temperature will go below 60°F.
because it will not run often enough
to maintain proper temperatures.
Do install it on a floor strong enough
to support a fully loaded refrigerator.
Also see Energy-Saving Tips
regarding location.
Clearances
Allow 5/8" at each side, 1" over top,
and 1" at rear for ease of installation,
proper air circulation, plumbing and
electrical connections. Allow 3/4"
at each side for door clearance.
When building a new home . . .
consider providing water supply to
refrigerator location. It will simplify
connection of optional automatic
icemaker should you wish to install
one at a later date.
Rollers
e
Adjustable rollers, which enable
you to move your refrigerator away
from the wall for cleaning, are
located behind the base grille.
These rollers should be set so that
the refrigerator is firmly positioned
on the floor and the front is raised
just enough that the doors close
easily when opened about halfway.
Specially designed door hinges lift
both doors slightly when opened.
The force of gravity then helps
close the doors automatically.
To adjust rollers, remove the base
grille by grasping it at the bottom
and pulling it out.
Turn roller adjusting screws clock-
wise to raise refrigerator, counter-
clockwise to lower it. Use adjustable
wrench (3/8" hex head bolt) or PIiers
When adjusting front rollers for
proper door closure, it is recom-
mended that the bottom front edge
of the cabinet be approximately
5/8 inch from the floor.
To replace base grille, align prongs
on back of grille with clamps in
cabinet and push forward until grille
snaps into place.
