IMPORTANTSAFETYINSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARN JNG-when usingthis

appliance, always exercise basic safety
precautions, including the following:

Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner's Manual.

This refrigerator/freezer must be properly
installed in accordance with the Installation

Instructions before it is used.
Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang

on the shelves in the refrigerator/freezer.
They could damage the refrigerator/freezer
and seriously injure themselves.

Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer
compartment when hands are damp or wet.

Skin may adhere to these extremely cold
surfaces.

• Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance.

Your freezer has an automatic
icemaker--avoid contact with the moving

parts of the ejector mechanism, or with
the heating element located on the bottom
of the icemaker. Donot place fingers or hands
on the automatic icemaking mechanism while
the freezer is plugged in.

Unplug your refrigerator/freezer
before cleaning and making repairs.
NOTE:We strongly recommend that
any servicing be performed by a qualified

individual.
Before replacing a burned-out light bulb,

the refrigerator/freezer should be unplugged in
order to avoid contact with a live wire filament.

(Aburned-out light bulb may break when being
replaced.) NOTE:Turning control to OFFdoes
not remove power to the light circuit.

Do not refreeze frozen foods which have
thawed completely.

DANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
refrigerator/freezers are still dangerous...even
if they will sit for "just afew days." If you are
getting rid of your old refrigerator/freezer,
please follow the instructions below to help
prevent accidents.

REFRIGERANTS

All refrigeration products contain refrigerants,
which under federal law must be removed prior
to product disposal. If you are getting rid of an old
refrigeration product, check with the company
handling the disposal about what to do.

Before You Throw Away Your Old
Refrigerator/Freezer or Freezer:

• Take off the doors.

• Leave the shelves in place so that children may
not easily climb inside.

HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

Do not, under any circumstances,
cut or remove the third (ground) prong
from the power cord. For personal safety,
this appliance must be properly grounded.

The power cord of this appliance isequipped

with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates
with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet
to minimize the possibility of electric shock
hazard from this appliance.

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

Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it is your personal responsibility
and obligation to have it replaced with a properly
grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

The refrigerator/freezer should always

be plugged into its own individual electrical
outlet which has a voltage rating that matches
the rating plate.

DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUGTO CONNECT

THE REFRIGERATOR/FREEZERTO A 2-PRONG

OUTLET.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH

THIS APPLIANCE.

This provides the best performance and also
prevents overloading house wiring circuits, which

could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.

Never unplug your refrigerator/freezer by pulling
on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and
pull straight out from the outlet.

Repairor replace immediately all power
cords that have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do not usea cord that shows cracks
or abrasion damage along its length or at

either end.
When moving the refrigerator/freezer away

from the wall, be careful not to roll over or
damage the power cord.

12-24 hours to begin making ice.

The icemaker will produce seven cubes per

cycle-approximately 15 cycles in a 24-hour
period, depending on freezer compartment
temperature, room temperature, number of
door openings and other use conditions.

If the refrigerator is operated before the water
connection ismade to the icemaker, set the

power switch to OFF.
When the refrigerator has been connected

to the water supply, set the power switch to ON.

Throw away the first full bucket of ice.

Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep
of the feeler arm.

When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm,
the icemaker will stop producing ice.

It is normal for several cubes to be joined
together.

If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes
will become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE

REFRIGERATOR/

FREEZER DOES NOT
OPERATE

•Playbe in defrost cycle when motor does not operate for about
45 minutes.

•Temperature control in the OFF position.

• If interior light is not on, refrigerator/freezer may not be plugged in
at wall outlet.

• The house fuse is blown/house circuit breaker istripped. Replace fuse
or reset the breaker.

• The Sabbath Mode Kit may be installed and operating. Turn off
the Sabbath Mode device.

MOTOR OPERATES

(Modern refrigerators

and freezers with more

storage space and a

VIBRATION OR
RATTLING

(Slight vibration
is normal.)

OPERATING
SOUNDS

• Normal when refrigerator/freezer isfirst plugged in.Wait 24 hours
or the refrigerator/freezer to completely cool down.

• Often occurs when large amounts of food are placed in refrigerator/
freezer.This isnormal.

• Door left open or package holding door open.

• Hot weather or frequent door openings. This is normal.

• Temperature control set at the coldest setting. SeeTemperature
Control.

• Refrigerator may not be properly installed.

• Thevariable speed compressor motor.

• Normal fan air flow-multiple fans blow cold air through the fresh food
and freezer compartments-another fan cools the compressor motor.

• The fans change speeds in order to provide optimal cooling and
energy savings.

• These NORMALsounds will also be heard from time to time:

- Youmay hear a whooshing or gurgling sound when the door closes.

This is due to pressure equalizing within the refrigerator.

- A water dripping sound may occur during the defrost cycle as ice

melts from the evaporator and flows into the drain pan.

- The flow of refrigerant through the freezer cooling coils may make a

gurgling sound like boiling water.

- Water dropping on the defrost heater can cause a sizzling, popping or

buzzing sound during the defrost cycle.

- You may hear cracking or popping sounds when the refrigerator is

first plugged in or during/after the defrost cycle. This happens as the

refrigerator cools to the correct temperature.

- The compressor may cause a clicking or chirping sound when

attempting to restart (this could take up to 5 minutes).

- The electronic control board may cause a clicking sound when relays

activate to control refrigerator components.

- Ice cubes dropping into the bin and water running in pipes as

icemaker refills.

- The icemaker water valve will buzzwhen the icemaker fills with water.
