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.
