Do not store or use gasoline, or other flammable liquids
in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Read product
labels for warnings regarding flammability
and other
hazards.
Do not operate the refrigerator in the presence of
explosive fumes.
Avoid contact with any moving parts of automatic ice
maker.
Remove all staples from the carton. Staples can cause
severe cuts, and also destroy finishes if they come in
contact with other appliances or furniture.
CHILD SAFETY
Destroy or recycle the carton, plastic bags, and any exterior
wrapping material immediately after the refrigerator is

Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are
not problems of the past. Junked or
abandoned refrigerators or freezers
are still dangerous - even if they will
sit for "just a few days." If you are
getting rid of your old refrigerator or
freezer, please follow the instructions
below to help prevent accidents.
Before you throw away your
old refrigerator/freezer:
Remove doors.
Leave shelves in place so children may not easily climb
inside.
Have refrigerant removed by a qualified service
technician.

INFORMATION
The refrigerator
must be plugged into its own
dedicated
115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp, AC only electrical
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.
Avoid connecting refrigerator to a Ground Fault
Interruptor (GFI) circuit. Do not use an extension
cord
or adapter
plug.
If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by
an authorized service technician to prevent any risk.
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.
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and before
replacing a light bulb to avoid electrical shock.
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 electrical outlet controlled by
a wall switch or pull cord to prevent the refrigerator from
being turned off accidentally.
IMPORTANT

on the left side of the temperature
control panel (Electronic
controls), or turning the Freezer and Fresh Food controls
to "0" iMechanical
controls) will disable your refrigerator's
cooling system, but does not disconnect the power to the
light bulb and other electrical components.
