BEFORE DISPOSING YOUR
REFRIGERATOR OR FREEZER
WHEN NO LONGER IN USE:

Remove the doors.
Leave the shelves in place so that children
cannot easily become stuck in them.

Children becoming trapped or suffocated is not a problem
of the past. Discarded and abandoned refrigerators are a
hazard, even if they remain there “for just a few days”.
If you would like to dispose of your old refrigerator, please
follow the instructions below to prevent any accidents.

This appliance is not intended for use by children, persons with physical or mental disabilities, persons with reduced sensory

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 (in the United States), 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 V, 220 V or 115 V
(According to the grounding requirements).

Use of an extension cord will increase the clearance needed
for the back of the refrigerator. If the supply cord is damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent
or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid any hazard.

RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD

individual properly grounded electrical outlet rated for

AC only and fused

at 15 or 20 amperes.

The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own

127 V ~ 60 Hz, AC or

~ 60 Hz,

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.
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 or
cleaning 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.
