• Do not use drier to dry the inside, nor light a candle to
remove odor.
• Install in places away from the fire such as the place where
flammable gas is leaked.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance
by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
Junked or abandoned refrigerators are dangerous...even if they
will sit forjusta fewdays. If you are getting rid of your old
refrigerator,please follow the instructions at right to help prevent
accidents (Child entrapment and suffocation).
BEFORE YOU THROW AWAY YOUR
OLD REFRIGERATOR OR FREEZER
• Take off the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not
easily climb inside.
Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that used CFCs
(chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are believed to harm stratospheric
ozone.
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make sure the
CFC refrigerant is removed for proper disposal by a qualified
servicer. If you intentionally release this CFC refrigerant,you can
be subject to fines and imprisonment under provisions of
environmental legislation.
IMPORTANT: Please read carefully.

RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual
properly grounded electrical outlet rated for
115 Volts, 60 Hz, AC only, and fused at 15 or 20 amperes. This
provides the best performance and also prevents overloading
house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated wires. It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this appliance be provided.
Use a receptacle which cannot be turned off with a switch or pull
chain. Do not use an extension cord.
Where a standard two-prong wall outlet is encountered,
it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced
with a properly grounded three-prong wall outlet.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third
(ground) prong from the power cord.
Do not use an adapter plug.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or
removing a light bulb, disconnect the refrigerator from the
electrical source.
NOTE: Some models have LED interior lighting and service
should be performed by a qualified technician.
When you are are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the
electrical source and reset the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator
Control, or Freezer Control, depending on the model) to the
desired setting.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of an
extension cord. However, ifyou still elect to use
an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed
(USA), 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 120 volts.
Use of an extension cord will increase the clearance needed for
the back of the refrigerator.
