Child Safety
Destroy or recycle the carton, plastic bags, and any
exterior wrapping material immediately after the
refrigerator is unpacked. Children should NEVER
use these items to play. Cartons covered with rugs,
bedspreads, plastic sheets or stretch wrap may become
airtight chambers, and can quickly cause suffocation.
Proper Disposal of your Refrigerator or
Freezer
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the
past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators or freezers are
still dangerous - even if they will sit for "just a few days".
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator or freezer,
please follow the instructions below to help prevent
accidents.

Turning your Ice
Haker On
After the plumbing
connections have been
completed, the water
supply valve must be
opened. Place the ice
container under the ice
maker, pushing it as
far back as possible.
Lower the wire signal
arm to its "down" or
ON position.
Refrigerator & Freezer Controls
When first turning refrigerator on, move refrigerator
and freezer controls to Normal. This is the
recommended initial setting. After 24 hours, adjust the
controls as needed.
Freezer Control
Tern peratu re Adj ustrnent
- Adjust temperature gradually: move the knob in
small increments, allowing the temperature to
stabilize.
Turning the refrigerator control will change temperatures
in both compartments. For example, if the refrigerator
control is turned to a colder setting, the freezer
control may have to be adjusted to a warmer setting.
Turning the freezer control will change only the freezer
temperature.
To maintain temperatures, a fan circulates air in the
refrigerator and freezer compartments. For good
circulation, do not block cold air vents with food items.
Refrigerator Control
Turning your Ice Haker Off
To stop the ice maker, lift the wire signal arm until it
clicksand locks in the "up" or OFF position. The ice
maker also turns off automatically when the ice container
is full.
Your ice maker is shipped from the factory with the
wire signal arm in the ON position. To ensure proper
function for your ice maker, hook up water supply
immediately or turn ice maker OFF by lifting the wire
signal arm until it clicks and locks in the UP position.
If the ice maker is not turned off and the water
supply is not connected, the water valve will
; make a loud chattering noise,
Cool Down Period
To ensure safe food storage, allow the refrigerator to
operate with the doors closed for at least 8 to 12 hours
before loading it with food.
Turning the refrigerator temperature control to "0"
turns off the compressor and prevents the refrigerator
from cooling, but does not disconnect the power to the
light bulb and other electrical components. To turn off
power to your refrigerator, you must unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet.
Understanding the Sounds you may Hear
Your new, high=efficiency refrigerator may introduce
unfamiliar sounds. These sounds normally indicate
your refrigerator is operating correctly. Some surfaces
on floors, walls, and kitchen cabinets may make these
sounds more noticeable.
Rigid foam insulation is very energy efficient, but is not
a sound insulator. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Following is a list of major components in your
refrigerator and the sounds they can cause:
A Evaporator Refrigerant through the evaporator
may create a boiling or gurgling sound.
B Evaporator fan You may hear air being forced
through the refrigerator by the evaporator fan.
C Defrost heater During defrost cycles, water
dripping onto the defrost heater may cause a
hissing or sizzling sound. After defrosting, a
popping sound may occur.
During the automatic defrost cycle, you may notice a
red glow in the vents on the back wall of your freezer
compartment. This is normal during the defrost cycle.
D Automatic ice maker When ice has been
produced, you will hear ice cubes falling into
the ice bin. The ice maker will produce 2.5 to 3
pounds of ice every 24 hours depending on usage
conditions.
E Electronic control & automatic defrost
control These parts can produce a snapping or
clicking sound when turning the cooling system on
and off.
F Condenser fan You may hear air being forced
through the condenser.
G Compressor Modern, high=efficiency compressors
run much faster than in the past. The compressor
may have a high=pitched hum or pulsating sound.
H Water valve Makes a buzzing sound each time it
opens to fill the ice maker.
I Drain pan (not removable) You may hear water
dripping into the drain pan during the defrost cycle.
J Condenser May create minimal sounds from
forced air.
Protecting your investment
Keeping your refrigerator clean maintains appearance and prevents odor build-up. Wipe up any spills immediately and clean the
freezer and fresh food compartments at least twice a year. When cleaning, take the following precautions:
• Never use CHLORIDE or cleaners with bleach to clean stainless steel.
• Do not wash any removable parts in a dishwasher.
• Always unplug the electrical power cord from the wall outlet before cleaning.
• Remove adhesive labels by hand. Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments which can scratch the appliance surface.
• Do not remove the serial plate.
Do not use abrasive cleaners such as window sprays, scouring cleansers, brushes, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes, concentrated
detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior doors, gaskets or cabinet liners. Do not
use paper towels, metallic scouring pads, or other abrasive cleaning materials or strong alkaline solutions.
If you set your temperature controls to turn off cooling, power to lights and other electrical components will continue until you
unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
, Pull the refrigerator straight out to move it. Shifting it from side to side may damage flooring. Be careful not to move the
refrigerator beyond the plumbing connections.
• Damp objects stick to cold metal surfaces. Do not touch refrigerated surfaces with wet or damp hands.
If you store or move your refrigerator in freezing temperatures, be sure to completely drain the water supply system. Failure to do so
could result in water leaks when the refrigerator is put back into service. Contact a service representative to perform this operation.
