Introduction
The Monogram refrigerator was designed to provide the flexibility to blend in with your kitchen cabinetry. Decorative door insert panels allow it to match your kitchen cabinets or blend with your kitchen decor.
Since the Monogram refrigerator is a built-in product, custom panels are required on the front of the Monogram refrigerator. Consult your kitchen designer or cabinetmaker for your customized look.
The information on the following pages will help you operate and maintain your refrigerator properly.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING–When using this appliance, always exercise basic safety precautions, including the following:
• Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in 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 refrigerator and seriously injure themselves.
• Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment when hands are damp or wet.
Skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
• In refrigerators with automatic icemakers,
avoid contact with moving parts of the ejector mechanism, or with the heating element located on the bottom of the icemaker. Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic icemaking mechanism while the refrigerator 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 performed by a qualified individual.
• Before replacing a burned-out light bulb,
set the Master Light switch in the OFF position to turn off the lights in order to avoid contact with a live wire filament. (A burned-out light bulb may break when being replaced.) NOTE: Setting the refrigerator temperature controls to OFF does not remove power to the light circuit.
• Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed completely.
w DANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
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.
CFC DISPOSAL
Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that used CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are believed to harm stratospheric ozone.
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make sure the CFC refrigerant is removed for proper disposal by a qualified servicer. If you intentionally release this CFC refrigerant you can be subject to fines and imprisonment under provisions of environmental legislation.

LIRE ET CONSERVER CES INSTRUCTIONS
AVERTISSEMENT : Lorsque vous utilisez le réfrigérateur, observez toujours certaines précautions de base, notamment :
• N’utilisez le réfrigérateur que pour son usage prévu, comme décrit dans le présent manuel.
• Installez le réfrigérateur 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. Ils pourraient endommager le
réfrigérateur et se blesser gravement.
• Une fois le réfrigérateur 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.
• Pour les réfrigérateurs dotés d’une machine à glaçons automatique, évitez 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 réfrigérateur est branché.
• Éloignez les doigts des parties du réfrigérateur où l’on peut facilement se pincer : les espaces entre les portes et entre
les portes et les placards sont toujours étroits. Soyez prudent lorsque vous fermez les portes de l’appareil en présence des enfants.
• Débranchez votre réfrigérateur 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,
mettez le commutateur de lumière principale en position OFF (arrêt) pour éteindre la lumière afin d’éviter tout contact avec un fil sous tension. (Une ampoule grillée peut se briser pendant l’opération). REMARQUE : Lorsque vous placez les commandes de température du réfrigérateur sur OFF (arrêt), l’alimentation électrique de l’ampoule n’est pas coupée.
• Ne faites PAS recongeler des aliments surgelés qui ont complètement dégelé.
w 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.
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.
SE DÉBARRASSER DU CFC
Votre ancien réfrigérateur peut avoir un système de refroidissement qui a utilisé les CFC (chlorofluorocarbones). Les CFCs sont jugés nocifs pour l’ozone stratosphérique.
Si vous débarrassez de votre viel appareil de réfrigération, assurez-vous que le frigorigène avec CFC soit enlevé correctement par un technicien qualifié. Si vous libérez intentionnellement ce frigogène avec CFC vouz pouvez être soumis aux contraventions et à l’emprisonnement après les stipulations des lois sur l’environment.

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.
Use of a GFI (Ground Fault Interruptor) is not recommended for the refrigerator outlet.
The refrigerator 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.
DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUG TO CONNECT THE REFRIGERATOR TO A 2-PRONG OUTLET.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH THIS APPLIANCE.
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.
Refer to the Installation Instructions for particular electrical system specifications for this refrigerator.
