WARNING: ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT - SHOCK HAZARD

Electrical Requirement

• Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (120 volts, 15 amps outlet)
with proper grounding to power the refrigerator.
• Avoid the use of three prong adapters or cutting off the third
grounding prong in order to accommodate a two prong outlet. This is
a dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the
refrigerator and may result in shock hazard.
WARNING: USE OF EXTENSION CORDS- POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD
Use of Extension Cords
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord,
use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug
and a 3-slot outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating of the
extension cord must be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of
the appliance. DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORD LONGER THAN
12 FT.
Installation Limitations
• Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated or
heated, e.g. garage, etc. Your refrigerator was not designed to operate
in temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit.
• Select a suitable location for the refrigerator on a hard even surface
away from direct sunlight or heat source, e.g. radiators, baseboard
heaters, cooking appliances, etc. Any floor unevenness should be
corrected with the leveling legs located on the front bottom corners of
the refrigerator.
