Starting The Refrigerator - Sears 3639724715 Owner's Manual

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 walt outlet by use of a UL listed adapter
(Fig 2) available at most Iocat 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

Fig 2 BEFORE USE
CAUTION: Attaching an adapter ground terminal to the
wall outlet cover screw does not ground the appliance
unless the cover screw is metal, and nat insulated, and
the wall outlet isgrounded 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 15 amperes (minimum)
and _20 volts
Electrical Requirements
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
Starting the Refrigerator
Location
" Install the refrigerator on a floor strong enough to
support it when it is fully loaded_
" Do not install it where the temperature wilt go Below
60°E 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 iL
Clearances
Allow
the
following
clearances for ease of installation,
proper air circulation, and plumbing and electrical
connections:
Sides .............. 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 adjust the rollers:
• Remove the base grille
Grasp it at the bottom
and pull it out
• Turn the roller adjusting
screws clockwise to raise
the refrigerator, counter-
clockwise to lower it
Use a blade-type
screwdriver Both doors
should close properly
when bottom front edge of refrigerator cabinet is
about 3/4" from the floor
• To replace the base
grille, line up the prongs
on the grille with the
clamps on the refrigerator
and push forward untiF
the grille snaps into place.
