Starting the Refrigerator
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
local codes permit,
a TEMPORARY
CONNECTION
may be made to a properly
grounded
two-prong
wall outlet by use of a UL listed adapter
(Fig° 2) available
at most local hardware
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.

FIRM CONNECTION
CAUTION:
Attaching
an adapter
ground terminal
to the wall outlet cover screw does not ground the
appliance
unless the cover screw is metal, and not
insulated,
and the wall outlet is grounded
through
the house wiring.
You should have 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
!5 amperes (minimum)
and 120 volts.
Electrical Requirements
The refrigerator
should always be plugged into its
own individual electrical
outlet--ll5
volt, 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.
Location
• Install the refrigerator
on a floor strong enough to
support it when it is fully loaded.
o Do not install it where the temperature
will go
below 60°1:. because it will not run often enough to
maintain
proper temperatures°
• Do not install it next to your range, a heating vent
or where the sun will shine directly on it.
Clearances
Allow the following clearances for ease of installation,
proper air circulation,
and plumbing
and electrical
connections:
Sides o. •3/4"
Top ........
1"
Back ......
1"
Leveling
Adjustable
rollers behind the base grille enable
you to move the refrigerator
away from the wall for
cleaning.
These rollers should be set so the
refrigerator
rests firmly on the floor with the front
raised just enough that the doors close easily when
opened about halfway.
To adiust
the rollers:
o Remove the base grille°
Grasp it at the bottom
and pull it out.
o Turn the roller adjusting
screws clockwise to raise
the refrigerator, counter-
clockwise
to lower ito
Use a blade-type
screwdriver.
Both doors
should close properly
when bottom front edge
of refrigerator
cabinet is about 3/4" from the floor.
o To replace
the base
]
grille,
line up the prongs
1
on the grille with the
clamps on the refrigerator
and push forward until
\
the grille snaps into place°
