Electrical 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
Interrupter

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,

-
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.

please follow the instructions below to help prevent
accidents.
Before you throw away
your old refrigerator/
freezer:
,, Remove doors.

so children may not
easily climb inside.
