three-prong grounding plug for your protection against

electrical shock hazards. It must be plugged directly into a properly grounded three prong receptacIe. The receptacle

must be installed in accordance with local codes and

ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician. Avoid connecting refrigerator to a Ground Fault Interruptor (GFb circuit. Do not use an extension cord or adapter pmug.

,, If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by an

authorized service technician to prevent any risk.

,, Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on the power

Your refrigerator comes with a state-of-the-art electronic dutai control system. The system's control panel is located at the top of the the fresh food compartment.

The two digita! displays on the left halfof the control panel indicate the current settings or temperatures of your freezer and fresh food compartments. The models with a2-digit temperature display are for reference only, and do not display the current accurate compartment

first time you press the button, the display shows current setting you entered. Each press of the button after that changes the setting by one.

The display shows your new setting momentarily, then changes back to the current temperature.
