IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SA VF THESE INS TR UC 770NS
located on the bottom of the icemaker.
WARNINGmwhe,/.siHg
this appliance, always exercise basic satbty
precautions, including the fl_llowing:
* Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described ill this Owner's
Manual.
, This refrigerator 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. They could
damage the reti'igerator and seriously ilkjure
themselves.
Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer
compartment when hands axe damp or wet.
Skin may adhere to these extrem ely cold
stu'_hces.
* Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity
of tiffs or any other appliance.
, In refrigerators with automatic icemakers,
avoid contact with moving pa*_s of the ejector
mechanism, or with the heating element
Do not place fingel_ or hands on the
automatic icemaking mechanism while
the refi'igerator is plugged in.
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.
Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning
and making repairs. NOTE: We strongly
recommend that any servicing be perflwmed
by a qualified individual.
" Before replacing a burned-out light bulb,
the refl'igerator should be unplugged in
order to avoid contact with a live wire
filament. (A burned-out light bulb may break
when being replaced.) NOTE: Turning
control to OFF does not remove power to
the light circuit.
* Do not refreeze frozen foods which have
thawed completely.
, Always clean the CuslomCooU MTray after
thawing food.
DANGEtL" t SK OF CHILD I 2NTRAPMI 2NT
Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past.,]unked or abandoned
refl'igerators are still dangerous...even if they
will sit tbr 'ijust a few clays." If you are getting
rid of your (lid refl'igeratot; })lease fl)llow the
instructions below to help prevent accidents.
CFC DISPOSAL
Yore" old refl'igerator may have a cooling
svsteln that used CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons).
CFCs are believed to harm stratospheric ozone.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator
or Freezer:
" Take off the doors.
" Leave the shelves in place so that children
may not easily climb inside.
If wm are throwing away your old refl'igeratm;
make sure the CFC refl'igerant is removed for
proper disposal bv a qualified servicer. If wm
intentionally release this CFC refl'igerant you
can be subject to fines and imprisomnent
under provisions of enviromnental legislation.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
HOW TO CONNECT EI 2CTPdCITY
Do not, under any circmnstaJaees, cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord. For personal safety, this appliance
must be properly grounded,
Tile 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 fl'om this appliance.
Have tile wall outlet and circuit checked bv
a qualified electrician to make sure tile outlet
is properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it is your personal _esponsibility
and obligation to have it replaced with a
properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
Tile refl'igerator should alwa_s be plugged into
its own individual electrical outlet which has
a voltage rating that matches the rating plate.
Because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an adapter plug.
HoweveL if you must use an adapteL where
local codes permit, a temporary connection
mav be made to a proped v grounded 2-prong
wall outlet by use of a UIAisted adapter
available at most local hardware stores.
Tile larger slot ill tile adapter must be
aligned with the larger slot ill the wall outlet
to pro\ ide proper polarity in tile connection
of tile power cord.
When disconnecting tile power cord fl'om tile
adaptex; always hold tile adapter in place with
one hand while pulling tile power cord plug
with the other band. If this is not done, the
adapter ground terminal is very likely to break
with repeated use.
This provides tile best perflmnance and also
prevents overloading house wiring circuits
which could cause a fire hazard fl'om
overheated wires.
Never unplug your refl'igerator by pulling on
the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and
pull straight out fl'om the outlet.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords
that have become fi'aved or otherwise
damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks
or abrasion damage along its length or at
either end.
When moving tile refl'igerator away fl'om tile
wall, be carehd not to roll ()vet" or damage tile
power cord.
If tile adapter ground terminal breaks,
DO NOT USE tile appliance until a proper
ground has been established.
Attaching tile adapter ground terminal to
a wall outlet cover screw does not ground tile
appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and
not insulated, and tile wall outlet is grounded
through tile house wiring. YOu should have the
circuit checked bv a qualified electrician to
make sure tile outlet is properly grounded.
Use of an adapter plug will increase tile
clearance needed for the back of the
appliance.
USE OF EXT?2NSION CORDS
Because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an extension cord.
HoweveI; if VOtl IlltlSt rise an extellsion cord,
it is absolutely necessary that it be a UIAisted,
3-wire grounding tvpe appliance extension
cord having a grounding type plug and outlet
and that tile electrical rating of tile cord be
15 amperes (ininimum) and 120 volts.

A newly-in,stalled _zffiigerator may take 12 to 24 hom:s to begin making ice.
The icemaker will produce seven cubes
per cycle--approximately 100-130 cubes
in a 24-hour period, depending on fl'eezer
compartment temperatm'e, room temperature,
nulnber oI door openings and other use
conditions.
If the refligerator is operated befl)re the water
connection is made to the icemaker, set the
power switch in the 0 (off) position.
When the refrigerator has been comlected
to the water supply, set the power switch to
the I (on) position.
The icemaker will fill with water when it
cools to 15°F (-10°C). A newly-installed
refl'igerator may take 12 to 24 horn's to begin
making ice cubes.
Throw away the first Ibw batches of ice to allow
the water line to clear.
Be sm'e nothing interlbres with the sweep
of the _beler arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler
arm, the icemaker will stop producing ice. It is
normal flw several cubes to be joined together.
If ice is not used fl'equently, old ice cubes will
become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
If ice cubes get stuck in the icemakeL the greell
power light will blink. To correct this, set the
power switch to 0 (off) and remove the cubes.
Set the power switch to I (on) to restart the
icemaker. After the icemaker has been turned
on again, there will be a delay of about
45 minutes beflwe the icemaker resumes
operation.
