IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This guide contains many important safety messages. Always read and obey all safety messages.
This is the safety alert symbol. It alerts you to safety messages that inform you of hazards that can kill or hurt you or others, or cause damage to the product.
All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and the hazard signal word DANGER, WARNING or CAUTION. These words mean:
DANGER
You will be killed or seriously injured if you do not follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you do not follow instructions.
WARNING
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
CAUTION
All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
To reduce the risk of fi re, electric shock, or personal injury when using your product, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following.
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
• NEVER unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug fi rmly and pull it straight out from the outlet.
• Immediately repair or replace 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 the plug or connector end.
• Do not modify or extend the power cord length. It could cause electric shock or fi re.
• When moving your refrigerator away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.
• The insulation in this unit contains cyclopentane or a pentane-like gas which is fl ammable and requires a special elimination process. Before discontinuing use of this refrigerator, contact local authorities to arrange for safe disposal of the unit.
may result in minor or moderate injury, or product damage.
WARNING
• DO NOT store or use gasoline or other fl ammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
• DO NOT store explosive substances such as aerosol cans containing fl ammable propellants in this appliance.
• DO NOT allow children to climb, stand, or hang on the refrigerator doors or shelves in the refrigerator. They could damage the refrigerator and seriously injure themselves.
• Keep fi ngers out of pinch point areas; clearances between the doors and cabinets are necessarily small. Be careful closing doors when children are in the area.
• Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or making any repairs.
NOTE: It is strongly recommended that any service be performed by a qualifi ed technician.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING
• Before service is performed on the interior LED lighting, unplug the refrigerator or turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
NOTE: The refrigerator and freezer compartment lights are LED interior lighting, and service should be performed by a qualifi ed technician.
WARNING: Setting either or both controls to the OFF
position does not remove power to the light circuit.
• When you are fi nished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and reset the controls (Thermostat, Refrigerator Control, and or Freezer Control, depending on the model) to the desired setting.
• This refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the Attention Installer Instructions that were taped to the front of the refrigerator.
• After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment when hands are damp or wet. Skin may adhere to the extremely cold surfaces.
• DO NOT touch the automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.
• DO NOT refreeze frozen foods which have thawed completely. The United States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 says:
…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold—below 4°C.
…Thawed ground meats, poultry or fi sh that have any off -odor or off -color should not be refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream should be discarded. If the odor or color of any food is poor or questionable, dispose of it. The food may be dangerous to eat.
Even partial thawing and refreezing reduces the eating quality of foods, particularly fruits, vegetables and prepared foods. The eating quality of red meats is aff ected less than that of many other foods. Use refrozen foods as soon as possible to save as much of their quality as you can.
WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to
the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
DANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Junked or abandoned refrigerators are dangerous, even if they are sitting for only a few days. If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the instructions at right to help prevent accidents (child entrapment and suff ocation).
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
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/HCFC DISPOSAL
Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that used CFCs or HCFCs (chlorofl uorocarbons or hydrochlorofl uorocarbons). CFCs and HCFCs are believed to harm stratospheric ozone if released to the atmosphere. Other refrigerants may also cause harm to the environment if released to the atmosphere.
ELECTRICAL & GROUNDING REQUIREMENTS
IMPORTANT: Please read carefully. TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, this appliance must be
properly grounded. Have the wall outlet and the circuit checked by a qualifi ed electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make sure the refrigerant is removed for proper disposal by a qualifi ed technician. If you intentionally release refrigerant, you may be subject to fi nes and imprisonment under provisions of environmental legislation.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
WARNING: Do not use extension cords or ungrounded (two-prong) adaptors. Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, the use of an extension cord is not recommended. However, if you still elect to
use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed (USA), 3-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.
Use of an extension cord will increase the clearance needed for the back of the refrigerator.
3-prong grounding type wall receptacle
3-prong grounding plug
Ensure proper ground exists before use.
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual properly grounded electrical outlet rated for 115 Volts, 60 Hz, AC only, and fused at 15 amperes (minimum). This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fi re hazard from overheated wires. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.
Use a receptacle that cannot be turned off with a switch or pull chain. Do not use an extension cord.
Where a standard two-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall outlet.
CAUTION
• Do not bend the power cord excessively or place heavy
articles on it.
• Connect the power plug in the proper position with the
cord hanging down.
• When moving the refrigerator, be careful not to roll
over or damage the power cord.
• If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced
immediately by the manufacturer or its service agent.
• Do not insert the power plug with wet hands.
• Do not insert your hands into the area under the
bottom of the appliance.
• Make sure that the power plug is not squashed or
damaged by the back of the refrigerator.
WARNING
Replacing Electrical Cord
To avoid hazard, damaged power cords must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualifi ed technician. Do not operate the appliance with a damaged power cord.

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
SETTING THE CONTROLS
The refrigerator control functions as the thermostat for the entire appliance (refrigerator and freezer sections). The colder the setting, the longer the compressor will run to keep the temperature colder. The freezer control adjusts the cold air Setting the freezer control to a lower temperature keeps more cold air in the freezer compartment to make it colder.
AIRFLOW
Cold air circulates from the freezer to the fresh food section and back again through air vents in the wall dividing the two sections. Be sure not to block vents while packing your refrigerator. Doing so will restrict airflow and may cause the refrigerator temperature to become too warm or cause interior moisture buildup. (See air ow diagram below.)
ow from the freezer to the refrigerator.
CONTROL PANEL FEATURES
Temperature
The Refrigerator Temp Control ranges from 30°F to
46°F (1°C to 8°C). Press the Refrigerator Temp button
to cycle through the available temperature settings one increment at a time. The recommended temperature for the refrigerator compartment is 37°F (3°C).
The Freezer Temp Control range is from -6°F to 8°F
(-21°C to -13°C). Press the Freezer Temp button to
cycle through the available temperature settings one increment at a time. The recommended temperature for
the freezer compartment is 0°F (-18°C).
NOTE:
before making additional adjustments. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you would like and when ice cream is rm. If the temperature in either compartment is too cold or too warm, change the setting one increment at a time. Wait 24 hours for the change to stabilize before adjusting again.
When changing control settings, wait 24 hours
IMPORTANT:
Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent odor transfer and dried out food, wrap or cover foods tightly. (See the Food Storage Guide section for details.)
NOTE: If you close the refrigerator door, you may see the freezer door open and close again due to pressure from internal air ow.

CAUTION
• The fi rst ice and water dispensed may include particles or odor from the water supply line or the water tank.
• Throw away the fi rst few batches of ice (about 24 cubes). This is also necessary if the refrigerator has not been used for a long time.
• Never store beverage cans or other items in the ice bin for the purpose of rapid cooling. Doing so may damage the icemaker or the containers may burst.
• If discolored ice is dispensed, check the water fi lter and water supply. If the problem continues, contact a Sears or other qualifi ed service center. Do not use the ice or water until the problem is corrected.
• Keep children away from the dispenser. Children may play with or damage the controls.
• The ice passage may become blocked with frost if only crushed ice is used. Remove the frost that accumulates by removing the ice bin and clearing the passage with a rubber spatula. Dispensing cubed ice can also help prevent frost buildup.
• Never use thin crystal glass or crockery to collect ice. Such containers may chip or break resulting in glass fragments in the ice.
• Dispense ice into a glass before fi lling it with water or other beverages. Splashing may occur if ice is dispensed into a glass that already contains liquid.
• Never use a glass that is exceptionally narrow or deep. Ice may jam in the ice passage and refrigerator performance may be aff ected.
• Keep the glass at a proper distance from the ice outlet. A glass held too close to the outlet may prevent ice from dispensing.
• To avoid personal injury, keep hands out of the ice door and passage.
• Never remove the dispenser cover.
• If ice or water dispenses unexpectedly, turn off the water supply and contact Sears Home Service at 1-800-4-MY HOME

FOOD STORAGE GUIDE
Wrap or store food in the refrigerator in airtight and moisture-proof material unless otherwise noted. This prevents food odor and taste transfer throughout the refrigerator. For dated products, check date code to ensure freshness.
Items How to
Butter or margarine
Cheese
Milk
Eggs
Fruit
Leafy vegetables
Keep opened butter in a covered dish or closed compartment. When storing an extra supply, wrap in freezer packaging and freeze.
Store in the original wrapping until you are ready to use it. Once opened, rewrap tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
Wipe milk cartons. For best storage, place milk on interior shelf, not in the door bin.
Store in original carton on interior shelf, not in door bin.
Wash, let dry, and store in refrigerator in plastic bags or in the crisper. Do not wash or hull fruit until you are ready to use them. Sort and keep fruit in its original container, in a crisper, or store in a completely closed paper bag on a refrigerator shelf.
Remove store wrapping and trim or tear off bruised and discolored areas. Wash in cold water and drain. Place in plastic bag or plastic container and store in crisper.
STORING FROZEN FOOD NOTE: Check a freezer guide or a reliable cookbook
for further information about preparing food for freezing or food storage times.
Freezing
Your freezer will not quick-freeze a large quantity of food. Do not put more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs. of food per cubic foot of freezer space). Leave enough space in the freezer for air to circulate around packages. Be careful to leave enough room at the front so the door can close tightly.
Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food, the type of packaging or wrap used (how airtight and moisture-proof) and the storage temperature. Ice crystals inside a sealed package are normal. This simply means that moisture in the food and air inside the package have condensed, creating ice crystals.
NOTE: Allow hot foods to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then package and freeze. Cooling hot foods before freezing saves energy.
Packaging
Successful freezing depends on correct packaging. When you close and seal the package, it must not allow air or moisture in or out. If it does, you could have food odor and taste transfer throughout the refrigerator and could also dry out frozen food.
Packaging recommendations:
• Rigid plastic containers with tight-fi tting lids
• Straight-sided canning/freezing jars
• Heavy-duty aluminum foil
• Plastic-coated paper
• Non-permeable plastic wraps
• Specifi ed freezer-grade self-sealing plastic bags Follow package or container instructions for proper
freezing methods.
Vegetables with skins (carrots, peppers)
Fish
Leftovers
Place in plastic bags or plastic container and store in crisper.
Use fresh fi sh and shellfi sh the same day purchased.
Cover leftovers with plastic wrap, aluminum foil, or plastic containers with tight lids.
19
Do not use
• Bread wrappers
• Non-polyethylene plastic containers
• Containers without tight lids
• Wax paper or wax-coated freezer wrap
• Thin, semi-permeable wrap
CAUTION: Do not keep beverage cans or plastic
food containers in the freezer compartment. They may break or burst if they freeze.

WATER FILTER
It is recommended that you replace the water fi lter:
• Approximately every 6 months.
• When the water fi lter indicator turns on.
• When the water dispenser output decreases.
• When the ice cubes are smaller than normal.
WATER FILTER
1. Remove the old water filter.
Press the push button to open the water fi lter cover.
NOTE: Replacing the water fi lter causes a small amount of water (around 1 oz. or 25 cc) to drain. Place a cup under the front end of the water fi lter cover to collect any leaking water. Hold the water fi lter upright, once it is removed, to prevent any remaining water from spilling out of the water fi lter.
Pull the water lter downward and pull out. Make sure to rotate the fi lter down completely before pulling it out of the manifold hole.
2. Replace with a new water fi lter.
Take the new water fi lter out of its packing and remove the protective cover from the o-rings. With the water fi lter tabs in the horizontal position, push the new water fi lter into the manifold hole until it stops.
Rotate the water lter up into position and close the cover. The cover will click when closed correctly.
3. After the water fi lter is replaced, dispense 2.5
gallons of water (fl ush for approximately 5 minutes) to remove trapped air and contaminants from the system. Do not dispense the entire 2.5 gallon amount continuously. Depress and release the dispenser pad for cycles of 30 seconds ON and 60 seconds OFF.
