'_ Explosion Hazard.
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from refrigerator.
Failure to do so can
result in fire, explosion, or death.
_1_/_ Tip Over Hazard.
Built-in style models (model PYE, CYE, and PWE) 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,
IMPORTANT SAFETYINFORMATION. READALL INSTRUCTIONSBEFOREUSING.
HOT WATER DISPENSER
A Scalding Hazard.
The hot water dispenser is capable of heating water to a temperature of approximately 185°F (85°C). Water temperatures above 125°F (52°C) can cause severe burns or death from scalding. Children, the disabled, and the elderly are at highest risk of being scalded.
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner's Manual, To reduce the risk of severe burns, scald injuries, or death when using your hot water dispenser, the instructions below must be followed:
, The water coming from the dispenser is very hot, Use
extreme caution when dispensing and drinking water, Allow water to cool to a drinkable temperature before drinking,
, When dispensing water below 125°F, always test the
temperature of the water before drinking,
, When dispensing hot water, the container can become
very hot, Use a temperature insulating container, such as ceramic or Styrofoam, Using container materials such as paper or plastic may result in a burn while holding the
cup, Do not use glass containers, as thermal shock can cause the container to break and may result in scalding or
lacerations,
, Do not permit children to use the hot water dispenser, , The hot water dispensing knob requires both twist and
push motions in order to reduce the risk of hot water being
dispensed unintentionally or by small children, Do not tamper with or modify the hot water dispensing knob,
, Always follow the formula manufacturer's instructions for
preparation of baby formula,
, Hold your cup or container close to the dispensing point to
minimize splashing of hot water that could contact your

dispenser tray, as this will increase water splash,
, 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)
I
i
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,
