IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING
The hot water dispenser is capable of heating water to a temperature of approximately 185°F (85°C).
Water temperatures above 125°F (52°C) can cause severe burns or death from scalding. Children, the
disabled, and the elderly are at highest risk of being scalded.
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner's Manual. To reduce the risk of severe burns,
scald injuries, or death when using your hot water dispenser, the instructions below must be followed:
Do not permit children to use the hot water dispenser.
The water coming from the dispenser is very hot. Use
extreme caution when dispensing and drinking water. Allow
water to cool to a drinkable temperature before drinking.
When dispensing water below 125 F, always test the
temperature of the water before drinking.
When dispensing hot water, the container can become
very hot. Use a temperature insulating container, such as
ceramic or foam. Using container materials such as paper
or plastic may result in a burn while holding the cup. Do
not use glass containers, as thermal shock can cause the
container to break and may result in scalding or lacerations.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality.
Your container should be close to the dispensing point to
minimize the splashing of hot water.
A newly installed water filter cartridge will cause water to
spurt from the dispenser. Run 2 gallons of water through
the cold water dispenser (about 5 minutes) to remove air
from the system. Until this air is removed from the system
Suffocation and child entrapment hazard.
WARNING
Remove fresh-food and freezer doors from the refrigerator, prior to disposal. Failure to do so can
result in child entrapment which can lead to death or brain damage.

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are
still dangerous even if they will sit for "just a few
days." If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator,
please follow the instructions below to help prevent
accidents.

Scalding Hazard.

PROPER DISPOSAL OF YOUR OLD REFRIGERATOR

SAFETY
through the cold water dispenser, DO NOT use the hot
water dispenser as it may result in spurting of hot water and
lead to hot water scalding.
The first time the hot water feature is used, confirm if
you live above 5000 feet (high altitude). This limits the
temperature of the hot water system to avoid boiling. To
access the high altitude selection, press Fridge and Door
Alarm and control will cycle from Hi AL to Lo AL (high
altitude to low altitude).
The hot water dispenser is designed to only dispense water.
Do not attempt to heat or dispense anything other than
water. Do not attempt to disassemble or clean the tank.
The hot water dispensing tank is a non-pressurized tank,
with a vent on the tank and a dispenser tube outlet. Do
not modify the system, close or block the dispense tube, or
connect any other type of device to the tank or dispense
tube. Doing so may lead to rupture of the tank and hot
water scalding.
Leave the shelves in place so that children may
not easily climb inside.
Refrigerants
All refrigeration products contain refrigerants,
which under federal law must be removed prior
to product disposal. If you are getting rid of an old
refrigeration product, check with the company
handling the disposal about what to do.
