A WARNING!
HOWTOCONNECT ELECTRICITY
Do no_ 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 electxic shock hazard
from this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked
by a
qualified
electrician
to make sure the outlet is
properly
grounded.
If the oudet is a standard 2-prong outlet, 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.
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 fi'om the oudeL
Repair or replace immediately
all power cords that
have become frayed or otherwise damaged.
Do not
use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion
damage
along its length or at either end.
When moving the refrigerator
away from the
wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the
power cord.
USEOF ADAPTER P LUGS (Adap_r
plog, not _,_i,_in
Canada)
Because of potential safe#/hazards
under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against
the use of an
adapter plug.
However, ffyou must use an adapter,
where local
codes permit, a temp0raty connectionmay be made
to a properly grounded
2-prong wall outlet by use
ofa UL-listed adapter
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 counecfion
of the power cord.
When disconnecting
the power cord from the
adapter, always hold the adapter in place with one
hand while pulling the power cord plugwith
the
other hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break with repeated
use.
If the adapter ground terminal
breaks, D0 NOTUSE
the refrigerator
until a proper ground has been
established.
