LIRE ET CONSERVER CES INSTRUCTIONS
AVERTISSEMENT :
Lorsque vous utilisez le réfrigérateur/ congélateur, observez toujours certaines précautions de base, notamment :
N’utilisez l’appareil que pour son usage prévu, comme décrit dans le présent manuel de l’utilisateur.
Installez le réfrigérateur/congélateur
conformément aux directives d’installation avant de l’utiliser.
Ne laissez pas les enfants grimper, s’asseoir, se tenir debout ni se pendre aux clayettes du réfrigérateur/congélateur. Ils pourraient
endommager le réfrigérateur et se blesser gravement.
Une fois le congélateur en marche,
ne touchez pas les surfaces froides du congélateur, surtout si vous avez les mains humides ou mouillées : la peau
risque d’adhérer à ces surfaces très froides.
N’entreposez et n’utilisez pas d’essence
ou autres vapeurs et liquides inflammables à proximité de cet appareil ou de tout autre appareil électroménager.
Le congélateur doté d’une machine
jJODoRQVDXWRPDWLTXH³évitez le contact avec les pièces mobiles du mécanisme éjecteur ou avec l’élément chauffant situé à la partie inférieure de la machine à glaçons. Ne posez pas les doigts ou les mains sur le mécanisme de la machine à glaçons pendant que le congélateur est branché.
Débranchez votre réfrigérateur/congélateur
avant de le nettoyer et de le réparer. REMARQUE : Nous vous recommandons
vivement de confier toute réparation à un technicien qualifié.
Avant de remplacer une ampoule grillée, le réfrigérateur/congélateur doit être débranché afin d’éviter tout contact avec un fil sous tension. (Une ampoule grillée peut se briser pendant l’opération). REMARQUE : Lorsque vous placez la commande sur «0» (éteint), l’alimentation électrique de l’ampoule n’est pas coupée.
Ne faites PAS recongeler des aliments
surgelés qui ont complètement dégelé.
DANGER : RISQUES POUR LES ENFANTS
Les enfants pris au piège ou morts d’asphyxie sont toujours d’actualité. Les appareils de réfrigération abandonés sont toujours aussi dangereux, même si on n’attend que “quelque jours” pour s’en débarasser. Si vous ne gardez pas votre ancien appareil, veuillez suivre les directives ci-dessous afin de prévenir les accidents.
RÉFRIGÉRANTS
Tous les appareils de réfrigération contiennent des réfrigérants qui, conformément aux lois fédérales, doivent être enlevés avant toute élimination de l’appareil. Si vous vous débarrassez de vieux appareils de réfrigération, vérifiez, auprès de la société qui s’occupe de leur élimination, ce que vous devez faire.
Avant de vous débarasser de votre vieux appareil de réfrigération :
• Démontez les portes.
• Laissez les clayettes en place afin d’empêcher les enfants de grimper à l’intérieur.

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 is equipped 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 PLUG TO CONNECT THE REFRIGERATOR/FREEZER TO A 2-PRONG OUTLET.
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.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a 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.
SAVE THESE
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH THIS APPLIANCE.

(freezer models)
A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12–24 hours to begin making ice.
The icemaker will produce seven cubes per
F\FOH³DSSUR[LPDWHO\F\FOHVLQDKRXU
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 is made 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.

Clearances
Anti-tip bracket
Do not install the refrigerator/freezer where temperatures will be below 60°F (16°C) because
it will not run often enough to maintain proper temperatures, and the refrigerator will develop high internal humidity.
If the refrigerator/freezer is to be installed in a corner, a 4” clearance is required on the hinge side for a 90° door opening and access to fresh food drawers. A 15” clearance is required on the hinge side to remove pans. A 25” clearance is required on the hinge side for a full 130° door swing.
The unit is top-heavy and must be secured to prevent the possibility of tipping forward. An anti-tip bracket must be installed to secure this unit to the wall. The following pages show the installation of this bracket.
For proper installation, the refrigerator/ freezer must be placed on a level surface of hard material the same height as the rest of the flooring. This surface should be strong enough to support a fully loaded refrigerator/freezer, or approximately 1,200 lbs. each. See the Installation Instructions for complete directions.
No other clearances at top, sides or back are required. See the Installation Instructions for complete directions.

Power Cord
Locate the power cord inside the left cavity. If it has not been adjusted so the plug is easily accessible, do so now.
Move Unit into Final Position
• Move refrigerator toward its final installed
location. Align the tabs on the wall bracket with the openings in the back of the unit.
• The unit has “L” bolts in the upper left and right
corners inside of the access compartment. These bolts will interlock with the wall bracket and secure the unit using the washers and hair pin cotters in the hardware kit once the unit has been leveled and is in the final position.

Level unit
All models have 4-point leveling. The front is supported by leveling legs; the rear is supported by adjustable wheels. Both are accessible from the front of the unit.
• To level the back of the unit, turn the 7/16”
hex nut located above the front wheels. Turn clockwise to raise or counterclockwise to lower the unit.
• For front leveling, use a 1-1/4” open-end
wrench.
• Adjust height of unit to match installation
cutout opening 83-1/2 to 84-1/2”. The unit should be level and plumb with cabinetry.
CAUTION:
The rear leveling wheels and front leveling legs are limited to a maximum height adjustment of 1”. If the installation requires more than 84-1/2” height, the installer should elevate the unit on a sheet of plywood or runners. Cabinetry trim could also be added across the top of the opening to shorten the opening. If you attempt
to raise the unit more than 1”, you will damage the front leveling legs and the rear leveling wheels.
PRUDENCE
Les roues de nivellement arrière et les pattes de nivellement avant permettent un réglage maximal de 25 mm (1 po). Si l’ouverture pour l’appareil ménager a une hauteur supérieure à 2,15 m (84-1/2 po), l’installateur doit élever l’appareil ménager sur une feuille de contre­plaqué ou des glissières. Il est également possible d’ajouter des baguettes de finition des placards sur le haut de l’ouverture afin de la réduire.
Lever l’appareil ménager de plus de 25 mm (1 po) endommage les pattes de nivellement avant et les roues de nivellement arrière.

• The “L” rods can be found in the upper left
and right corners of the unit in the access compartment. Look through the access compartment to make sure the rods line up with the anti-tip bracket.
• There are 2 washers and a hair pin cotter per
rod. Remove the washers and hair pin cotter from the end of the rod.
• Rotate and move the “L” rod into the slot

• Pull out on the end of the rod to make sure
it is secure in the bracket.
• Locate the hole on the rod that is closest
to the unit. A hair pin cotter will be put through this hole to secure the rod. If this hole appears to be too far away for a snug fit against the unit, add the washers one at a time until the pin will fit tightly into the hole.
• Align the straight section of the pin with
the hole from the underside of the rod. Push the pin up until it snaps into position. Pliers may be used. NOTE: The hair pin cotter must be vertical when this step is completed to ensure the “L” rod is engaged in the bracket.
• Check the rod for tightness by pulling forward.
If the rod moves, remove the hair pin cotter and place another washer on the rod. Reinsert the pin.
• Replace the grille panel.
