IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
REFRIGERANTS
All refrigeration products contain refrigerants, which under
federal law must be removed prior to product disposal.
Beverage Center
If you are getting rid of an old refrigeration product, check
with the company handling the disposal about what to do.
WARNING
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the
past. Junked or abandoned refrigeration products are still
dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you
are getting rid of your old appliance, please follow these
instructions to help prevent accidents.
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigeration
Product:
• Take off the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not
easily climb inside.
DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUG OR EXTENSION CORD
(Adapter plugs not permitted in Canada)
Do not use an adapter plug to connect the
refrigerator to a 2-prong outlet.
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
WARNING
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.
Electrical Shock Hazard
The appliance should always be plugged into its own
individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating
that matches the rating plate. This provides the best
performance and also prevents overloading house wiring
circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated
wires.
Never unplug an appliance by pulling on the power cord.
Always grip the 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 appliance, be careful not to roll over or
damage the power cord.

remove power at the circuit breaker. Use a
slightly damp cloth or sponge when cleaning
around switches, lights or controls.
Use warm water and baking soda solution—
about a tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda to
a quart (1 liter) of water. This both cleans and
neutralizes odors. Thoroughly rinse and wipe
dry.
Other parts of the beverage center unit—
including the door gaskets, full extension
drawers and glass shelves—can be cleaned
the same way.
Periodically check the drain hole and channel
for any debris. If the drain is blocked,
condensation will not drain properly.

Normal
operating
sounds
Newer appliances sound different from older appliances. Modern appliances have more features
and use newer technology.
Do you hear what I hear? These sounds are normal.
HUMMM...
WHOOSH...
• The new high efficiency compressor may run
faster and longer than your old appliance
and you may hear a high-pitched hum or
pulsating sounds while it is operating.
• Sometimes the appliance runs for an
extended period, especially when the doors
are opened frequently.
• You may hear a whooshing sound when
the doors close. This is due to pressure
equalizing within the appliance.
• You may hear the fans spinning at high
speeds. This happens when the appliance
is first plugged in, when the door is opened
frequently or when large amounts of
beverages are added to the appliance. The
fans help maintain desired temperatures.
• If the door is open for over 3 minutes, you
may hear a fan come on in order to cool the
appliance.
• The fans change speeds in order to provide
optimal cooling and energy savings.
CLICKS, POPS,
CRACKS and CHIRPS
• You may hear cracking or popping sounds
when the appliance is first plugged in. This
happens as the appliance cools to the
correct temperature.
• Expansion and contraction of cooling coils
during and after defrost can cause cracking
or popping sounds.
• The electronic control board may cause
a clicking sound when relays activate to
control appliance components.
WATER SOUNDS
• The flow of refrigerant through the appliance
cooling coils may make a gurgling noise like
boiling water.
• A water dripping noise may occur as water
from the evaporator flows into the drain pan.
• Closing the door may cause a gurgling
sound due to pressure equalization.
