LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

WARNING
Explosion and Fire Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline,
away from appliance.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion or fire.
IMPORTANT: This refrigerator is designed for freestanding
installation only. It should not be recessed or built-in an
enclosed cabinet. To ensure your refrigerator works at
optimum efficiency, you should install it in a location where
there is proper air circulation, and electrical connections.
LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
• Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature
will go below 55°F (13°C) because it will not run often
enough to maintain proper temperatures.
• Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature
will go above 110°F (43°C) because it will not perform
properly.
• Install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully
loaded.
• Do not install the refrigerator in a location exposed to
water (rain, etc.) or direct sunlight.

CONNECTING ELECTRICITY

WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK
HAZARD
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
Do not remove the ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third
(ground) prong from the power cord. For personal safety,
this appliance must be properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard
3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the possibility
of electric shock hazard from this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it
is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own
individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that
matches the rating plate.
A 115 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded
electrical supply is required. This provides the best
performance and also prevents overloading house wiring
circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated
wires.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power
cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out from the
outlet.
Immediately discontinue use of a damaged supply cord.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a
qualified service professional with an authorized service
part from the manufacturer.
When moving the refrigerator away from the wall, be
careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.
