Electrical Shock Hazard
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, this appliance
must be properly grounded. Have the wall
outlet and the circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the outlet is properly
grounded.
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING
METHOD
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its
own individual properly grounded electrical outlet
rated for 230 Volts, 50 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.
• Repair or replace immediately all electric
service 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 the plug or connector end.
• When moving your refrigerator away from the
wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the
power cord.
• Keep fingers out of pinch point areas;
clearances between the doors and cabinet are
necessarily small. Be careful closing doors
when children are in the area.
• This refrigerator must be properly installed in
accordance with the Attention Installer
Instructions that were taped to the front of the
refrigerator.
• Don't touch the lamp, in case of light on the long
time, Because it can be very hot.

GROUNDING REQUIREMENTS

w w WARNING
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.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation,
cleaning,or removing a light bulb, turn the control
(Thermostat, Refrigerator Control or Freezer
Control, depending on the model)to OFF and
then disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical
source. When you 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.
• DO NOT refreeze frozen foods which have
thawed completely. The United States
Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden
Bulletin No. 69 says:
...You may safely refreeze frozen foods that
have thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if
they are still cold—below 4°C.
...Thawed ground meats, poultry or fish that
have any off-odor or off-color should not be
refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice
cream should be discarded. If the odor or color
of any food is poor or questionable, get rid of it.
The food may be dangerous to eat.
Even partial thawing and refreezing reduces the
eating quality of foods, particularly fruits,
vegetables and prepared foods. The eating
quality of red meats is affected less than that of
many other foods. Use refrozen foods as soon
as possible to save as much of their quality as
you can.
