Electrical Requirements
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Before you move your refrigerator into its final location, it is
important to make sure you have the proper electrical
connection.
Recommended Grounding Method
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded
electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate
circuit serving only your refrigerator be provided. Use an outlet
that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension
cord.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or
removing a light bulb, turn Cooling OFF. Press both the
Refrigerator Minus (-) button and the Freezer Minus (-) button
until the word OFF appears in each display. Disconnect the
refrigerator from the electrical source. When you are finished,
reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and reset the
temperature controls to the desired setting. See “Using the
Controls.”
