IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

IMPORTANT: Please read carefully.

AWARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

For personal safety, this appliance must be

properly grounded. Have the wall outlet and
the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to

make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

RECOMMENDED

GROUNDING

METHOD

The refrigerator should always be plugged Into
its own individual properly grounded electrical
outlet rated for 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only, and
fused at 20 amperes. 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.

Do not use an adapter piug.

NOTE: Some models have LED interior lighting and

service should be performed by a qualified technician.

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.

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

(USA), 3-wire grounding-type appliance

extension cord having a grounding-type plug
and outlet and that the electrical rating of the
cord be 20 amperes (minimum) and 120 volts.

Use of an extension cord will increase the

clearance needed for the back of the

refrigerator.

NOTE: Before performing any type of installation,

cleaning, or removing a light bulb, 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.
