Electrical information
WARNING
You must follow these guidelines to
ensure that your refrigerator's safety
mechanisms are operating correctly.
•
The refrigerator must be plugged
into its own dedicated 115 Volt, 60
Hz., AC-only electric outlet. The
power cord of the appliance is equipped
with a three-prong grounding plug for
your protection against electrical shock
hazards. It must be plugged directly
into a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle. The receptacle must be
installed in accordance with local codes
and ordinances. Consult a qualified
electrician. Do not use an extension
cord or adapter plug.
•
If the power cord is damaged, it should
be replaced by the manufacturer, service
technician or a qualified person to
prevent any risk.
•
Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling
on the power cord. Always grip the
plug firmly, and pull straight out from
the receptacle to prevent damaging the
power cord.
•
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning
and before replacing a LED light to avoid
electrical shock.
•
Performance may be affected if
the voltage varies by 10% or more.
Operating the refrigerator with insufficient
power can damage the compressor.
Such damage is not covered under your
warranty.
•
Do not plug the unit into an outlet
controlled by a wall switch or pull cord
to prevent the refrigerator from being
turned off accidentally.
•
Avoid connecting refrigerator to a
Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit.
