IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

This guide contains many important safety messages. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol. It alerts you to safety messages that inform you of hazards that can kill or hurt you or others, or cause damage to the product.

All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and the hazard signal word DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION. These words mean:

DANGER

WARNING

CAUTION

You will be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury, or product damage only.

All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed. Keep this guide in a safe place for future reference.

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 at right 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.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your product, basic safety

precautions should be followed, including the following: Read all instructions before using this appliance.

DO NOT plug several appliances into the same power receptacle. Large appliances draw a lot of power. Powering more than one appliance or machine from a single power source could cause overheating and cause a fire.

Make sure that the power plug is not kinked or damaged by the back of the refrigerator. A damaged power plug may overheat and cause a fire.

DO NOT spray water directly into or on the outside of the refrigerator/freezer drawer. Water could get into the interior machine parts and cause electric shock.

DO NOT use aerosols near the refrigerator. Aerosols used near the refrigerator may cause an explosion or fire.

DO NOT put undue stress on the power cord or place heavy articles on it. Placing heavy articles on the power cord creates the risk of explosion or fire.

DO NOT insert the power plug with wet hands. It may cause electric shock.

DO NOT put a container filled with water on the refrigerator. If it spills, it may cause fire or electric shock.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

DO NOT install the refrigerator in a damp place or place where it may come in contact with water. Wet and/or deteriorated insulation of the internal electrical parts may cause electric shock or fire.

DO NOT store volatile or flammable substances in the refrigerator. Storing benzene, thinner, alcohol, ether, LP gas, and other such products may cause explosions.

DO NOT disassemble or repair the refrigerator by yourself. You may run the risk of fire, appliance malfunctions, and/or personal injury. Call your nearest service center for help from a qualified service technician.

Unplug the refrigerator before changing the interior light.

Changing the light while the refrigerator is plugged in may cause electric shock.

The refrigerator must be safely grounded. ALWAYS make sure that you have grounded the refrigerator before attempting to investigate or repair any part of the appliance. Power leakages can cause severe electric shock.

NEVER use gas pipes, telephone lines, or other potential lightning attractors as an electrical ground. Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. If it is necessary to use an extension cord to power the refrigerator, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade ground plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be AC 115V/120V,

10A, or more. Additionally, if a grounding adapter is used, make sure the receptacle box is also fully grounded.

CAUTION

Use good judgment when filling the refrigerator with food and drinks. In an overfull refrigerator, heavy, fragile, bulky, or breakable items may fall out and cause personal injury and/or damage to surrounding objects.

DO NOT put bottles or glass containers in the freezer drawer. When the contents freeze and then expand, the glass may break and cause personal injury or leave dangerous glass shards in the freezer.

If the electrical wall socket is loose, do not insert the power plug. There is a risk of electric shock or fire.

Have the plug looked at by a licensed electrician.

NEVER unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord.

Always grip the power cord firmly and pull straight out from the outlet. Yanking or pulling on the power cord may cause a short-circuit, fire, and/or electric shock.

A damaged power cord must be replaced by the manufacturer, a certified service agent, or qualified service personnel.

DO NOT store articles on the top of the refrigerator.

When you open or close the door, the articles may fall and cause personal injury and/or damage to surrounding objects.

DO NOT store pharmaceutical products, scientific materials, and temperature-sensitive products in the refrigerator. Products that require exact temperature controls should not be stored in the refrigerator.

DO NOT allow children to climb, stand, or hang on shelves and handles of the refrigerator. DO NOT sit on the freezer door. DO NOT allow children to climb into the freezer basket. They could damage the refrigerator and/or seriously injure themselves.

If you notice a chemical or burning plastic smell or see smoke, unplug the refrigerator immediately and contact your Sears Electronics Service Center.

After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment. Particularly when hands are damp or wet, skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces. Skin may stick to the surface and you may get frostbite.

DO NOT put your hands under the appliance. Any sharp edges may cause personal injury.

If the refrigerator will not be used for a long period

of time (for example, over several months), unplug the power from the wall. Over time, deterioration in the power cord insulation may cause fire.

DO NOT use a wet or damp cloth when cleaning the plug.

Remove any dust or foreign matter from the power plug pins. A dirty power plug can increase the risk of fire.

If the refrigerator is disconnected from the power supply, you should wait for at least five minutes before plugging it back in.

DO NOT place the refrigerator directly in sunlight.

The refrigerator must be positioned for easy access to the power source.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION

If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a certified service agent, or qualified service personnel.

If you have a long vacation planned, empty the refrigerator and turn it off. Wipe excess moisture from the inside and leave the doors open to keep odor and mold from developing.

Service Warranty and Modification

Any changes or modifications performed by a third party on this finished appliance are not covered under

Sears warranty service, nor can Sears be responsible for safety issues that result from third-party modifications.

DO NOT block air holes in the refrigerator. If the air holes are blocked, especially with a plastic bag, the refrigerator can become overcooled.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CFC REFRIGERANT DISPOSAL

Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that used

If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make sure

GROUNDING REQUIREMENTS

IMPORTANT: Please read carefully.

TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

CAUTION

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.

3-Prong Grounding-Type Wall Receptacle

3-Prong

Ensure proper

Grounding

ground exists

Plug

before use.

RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD

The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual properly grounded electrical outlet rated for

115 Volts, 60 Hz, AC only and fused at 15 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.

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.

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 CSA-listed 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 volts.

Use of an extension cord will increase the clearance needed for the back of the refrigerator.

REFRIGERATOR INSTALLATION

POSITIONING AND LEVELING THE REFRIGERATOR

Now that the refrigerator has been assembled, position and level the refrigerator.

The refrigerator has two front leveling legs—one on the right and one on the left. Adjust legs to alter tilt from front to back or side to side. If the refrigerator seems unsteady or if you want the doors to close more easily, adjust the refrigerator’s tilt using the instructions below:

NOTE: Make sure it meets all the requirements listed on page 9.

1.Plug the refrigerator’s power cord into a 3-prong grounded outlet. Move the refrigerator into its final position.

2.Open the refrigerator door and place a level on the lower shelf. Check to make sure it is level from side to side and front to back.

NOTE: Having someone push backward against the top of the refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling legs. This makes it easier to adjust the legs.

3.If it is not level, adjust the front leveling legs until the refrigerator is level. Using a screwdriver, turn the leg counterclockwise to extend the leg and raise the refrigerator at that point. Turn the leg clockwise to retract the leg and lower the refrigerator at that point. It may take several turns of the leveling leg to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.

4.Open both doors again and check to make sure that they close easily. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by turning both leveling legs clockwise.

It may take several more turns, and you should turn both leveling legs the same.

5.Readjust if necessary.

WARNING

Both control levers must be securely touching the floor to avoid possible personal injury or property damage because of tipping.

When selecting the refrigerator temperature, the set temperature is displayed initially for 5 seconds and then the actual temperature is displayed. (There may be a slight difference between the set temperature and the displayed actual temperature, but it will be corrected to the set temperature automatically.)

NOTE: The refrigerator temperature will change depending on the number of door openings, quantity of food, ambient temperature, etc.

Temperature of each shelf or container in the refrigerator may be different.

The temperature display will blink when the refrigerator temperature increases due to frequent door opening, keeping warm food, etc.

(Blinking will stop when the refrigerator reaches normal temperature. If for some reason it does not stop after a long period of time, contact a Sears service center.)
