READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
When using
this appliance, always exercise basic safety
precautions, including the following:
• Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
• This refrigerator must be properly
installed in accordance with the Installation
Instructions before it is used.
• Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang
on the shelves in the refrigerator. They could
damage the refrigerator and seriously injure
themselves.
• Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer
compartment when hands are damp or
wet. Skin may adhere to these extremely cold
surfaces.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance.
• In refrigerators with automatic icemakers,
avoid contact with moving parts of the ejector
mechanism, or with the heating element
located on the bottom of the icemaker. Do
not place fingers or hands on the automatic
icemaking mechanism while the refrigerator
is plugged in.
• Keep fingers out of the “pinch point” areas:
clearances between the doors and between
the doors and cabinet are necessarily small. Be
careful closing doors when children are
in the area.
• Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning
and making repairs.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that any
servicing be performed by a qualified
individual.
• Before replacing a burned-out light bulb,
set the Master Light switch in the OFF position
to turn off the lights in order to avoid contact
with a live wire filament. (A burned-out light
bulb may break when being replaced.)
NOTE: Setting the refrigerator temperature
controls to OFF does not remove power to the
light circuit.
• Do not refreeze frozen foods which have
thawed completely.
DANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
refrigerators are still dangerous…even if they
will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting
rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the
instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old
Refrigerator or Freezer:
• Take off the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that children
may not easily climb inside.
REFRIGERANTS
All refrigeration products contain refrigerants,
which under federal law must be removed prior
to product disposal. If you are getting rid of
an old refrigeration product, check with the
company handling the disposal about what
to do.
