Installation Requirements
(continued)–IMPORTANT . . Please Read Carefully
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 lod codes permit,
a TEMPORARY
CONNECHON
may be made to a properly grounded
two-prong wall outlet by use of a
UL listed adapter (Fig. 2) available
at most local hardwa~e stores.

The larger slot in the adapter must
be aligned with the larger slot in the
wall outlet to provide proper polarity
in the connection of the power cord.
CAUTION:
Attaching adapter
ground terminal to wall outlet cover
screw does not ground the appliance
unless cover screw is metal, and not
insulated, and wall outlet is grounded
through house wiring. You should
have the circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the outlet
is properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power
cord from the adapter,
always hold
the adapter with one hand. If this
is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very 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 appliance extension cord having
a grounding type plug and outlet
and that the electrical rating of the
cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and
120 volts. Such extension cords are
obtainable through your local
service organization.
The refrigerator should always
be plugged into its own
individual electrical outlet—
(115volt, 60 Hertz, single phase
AC). This is recommended for
best performance and to prevent
overloading house wiring circuits,
which could cause a fire hazard
from overheating wires.
Refrigerator 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

for ease of installation, proper
air circulation, and plumbing
and electrical connections:

Water Supply to Icemaker
You will need to connect your
icemaker to a cold water line. A water
supply kit containing copper tubing,
shut-off valve, fittings and instructions
is available at extra cost from your
dealer. There should be sufficient
tubing for the icemaker from the
cold water supply to allow you to
move the refrigerator out from the
wall several feet (approximately
3 coils of l/4-inch copper tubing
that is at least 10 inches in diameter).
Rollers
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 door automatically.
To adjust rollers,
remove the base
grille by
grasping it at the bottom
and pulling it out.
lhrn roller adjusting screws
clockwise to raise refrigerator,
counterclockwise
to lower it. Use
adjustable wrench (3/8" hex head
bolt) or pliers.
When adjusting front rollers for proper
door closure, it is recommended that
the bottom front edge of the cabinet
be approximately 5/ii' from the floor.
