InStallatiOn Requirements
(continued)--IMPORTANT..
.
Please Read Carefully.
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
CONNECIION 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.

AND FIRM CONNECTION
BEFORE USE
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.
CAUTION: Attaching an adapter
ground terminal to wall outlet cover
screw does not ground appliance
unless cover screw is metal, and
not insulated, and wall outlet is
grounded through 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
t y p e 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. Such extension cords are
obtainable through your local
service organization.
The refrigerator should always
be plugged into its own
individual electrical outlet-
(115 volt, 60 Hertz, or 100 volt, 50
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.
Refrigerator Location
Do not install refrigerator where
temperature will go below 60°F.
because it will not run often enough
to maintain proper temperatures.
Do install it on a floor strong
enough to support a fully loaded
refrigerator.
Also see Energy-Saving Tips
regarding location.
Clearances
Allow the following clearances
for ease of installation and
proper air circulation:
Sides
...............
314"

Water Supply to Icemaker
You will need to connect your
icemaker to a cold water line. A
water supply kit containing copper
tubing, shut-off valve, fittings and
instructions is available at extra
cost from your dealer. There
should be sufficient tubing for the
icemaker from the cold water
supply to allow moving the
refrigerator out from the wall
several feet (approximately 3 coils
of 1/4-inch copper tubing that
measures at least 10 inches in
diameter).

Rollers
c . q
c
. +
Adjustable rollers, which enable
you to move your refrigerator away
from the wall for cleaning, are
located behind the base grille.
These rollers should be set so that
the refrigerator is firmly positioned
on the floor and the front is raised
just enough that the doors close
easily when opened about halfway.
To adjust rollers, remove the base
grille by grasping
it
at the bottom
and pulling
it
out.
'Purn roller adjusting screws
clockwise to raise refrigerator,
counterclockwise to lower it. Use
adjustable wrench (3/8" hex head
bolt) or pliers.
When adjusting front rollers for proper
door closure, we recommend that
the bottom front edge of the cabinet
. b e
approximately 3/4" from the
floor.
To replace base grille, align prongs
on back of grille with clamps in
cabinet andpush forward until the
grille snaps into place.
