WARNING
Explosion Hazard.
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from refrigerator. Failure to do so can
result in fire, explosion, or death.
WARNING
Built-in style models (model PYE, CYE, GYE, PWE, CWE, and ZWE) are top heavy, especially with any doors
open. These models must be secured with the anti-tip floor bracket to prevent tipping forward, which
could result in death or serious injury. Read and follow the entire installation instructions for installing the
anti-tip floor bracket packed with your refrigerator.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
Do not remove the ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.

HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

Do not, 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 electric shock hazard from this
appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is
properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is
encountered, 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.

USE OF EXTENSION CORDS

Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the
use of an extension cord.
Tip Over Hazard.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, fire, or electrical shock.
A 115 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded
electrical supply is required. 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 from the outlet.
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.
However, if you must 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 120 volts.
