IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, or injury when using your refrigerator follow these basic safety precautions:

This refrigerator must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.

Unplug the refrigerator before making repairs, replacing a light bulb, or cleaning. Note: Power to the refrigerator cannot be disconnected by any

setting on the control panel.

Note: Repairs must be performed by a qualified service professional.

Replace all parts and panels before operating. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and

liquids inthe vicinity of this or any other appliance.

Becauseof potential safety hazards under certain conditions,

we strongly recommend against the use of an extension cord,

However,ifyou must use an extension cord, it isabsolutely necessarythat it be a UL-listed(inthe United States)or a CSA certified (inCanada),g-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,

To prevent suffocation and entrapment hazards to children,

remove the fresh food and freezer doors from any refrigerator before disposing of it or discontinuing its use,

Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the door handles or the shelves in the refrigerator, They could seriously injure themselves,

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

I__ o reduce the risk of injury when using your refrigerator, follow these basic

Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water , Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment when they are cold. Glass shelves and covers may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping or dropping. Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small pieces if it breaks.

, Keep fingers out of the "pinch point" areas; clearances

between the doors and between the doors and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful closing doors when children

are in the area.

safety precautions,

when hands are damp or wet, skin may stick to these extremely cold surfaces.

Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed

INSTALLATION

'_ Explosion Hazard.

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from refrigerator.

Failure to do so can

result in fire, explosion, or death.

_/_ Tip Over Hazard.

Built-in style models (model PYE,CYE,GYE, PWE, CWE, and ZWE) are top heavy, especially with any doors open. These models must be secured with the anti-tip floor bracket to prevent tipping forward, which

could result in death or serious injury. Read and follow the entire installation instructions for installing the anti-tip floor bracket packed with your refrigerator.

CONNECTING ELECTRICITY

Electrical Shock Hazard.

Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet Do not remove the ground prong

IDo not use an adapter lFailure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

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, Do not use an adapter,

The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own

individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating plate,

A 115 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required, 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 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 away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord,

, Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of

unknown quality,

, The hot water dispenser is designed to only dispense water,

Do not attempt to heat or dispense anything other than

water, Do not attempt to disassemble or clean the tank,

, A newly installed water filter cartridge will cause water to

spurt from the dispenser, Run 2 gallons of water through the cold water dispenser (about 5 minutes) to remove air from the system, Until this air is removed from the system through the cold water dispenser, DO NOT use the hot water dispenser as it may result in spurting of hot water and lead to hot water scalding,

, The hot water dispensing tank is a non-pressurized tank,

with a vent on the tank and a dispenser tube outlet, Do not modify the system, close or block the dispense tube, or connect any other type of device to the tank or dispense tube, Doing so may lead to rupture of the tank and hot water scalding,

About the automatic ice maker.

A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.

Automatic Ice maker (on some models)

Ice maker

The ice maker will produce seven cubes

per cycle approximately 100-130 cubes in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer

compartment temperature, room temperature,

number of door openings and other use

conditions, The ice maker will fill with water when it cools to

15°F (-10°C), A newly installed refrigerator may

take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes,

Ifthe refrigerator is operated before the water line connection is made to the unit or if the

water supply to an operating refrigerator is turned off, make sure that the ice maker is turned off, Once the water has been connected

to the refrigerator, the ice maker may be turned

on, See the table below for details,

To minimize the risk of personal injury, avoid contact with the moving parts of the ejector

mechanism, or with the heating element that releases the cubes. Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.

You may hear a buzzing sound each time the ice maker fills with water,

Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow the water line to clear,

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

When the bin fills to the level of the feeler arm, the ice maker will stop producing ice, It is

normal for several cubes to bejoined together, If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will

become cloudy, taste stale and shrink, NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water

pressure, you may hear the ice maker cycle multiple times when making one batch of ice,
