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

WARNING

CAUTION

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.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury, or product damage.

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.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of 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 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 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 ammable and requires a special elimination process. Before discontinuing use of this refrigerator, contact local authorities to arrange for safe disposal of the unit.

WARNING

Before service is performed on the interior LED lighting, unplug the refrigerator or turn o 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 quali ed technician.

WARNING: Setting either or both controls to the OFF position does not remove power to the light circuit.

When you are 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 sh that have any o -odor or o -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 a 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.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

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 su ocation).

BEFORE YOU THROW AWAY

YOUR OLD REFRIGERATOR

OR FREEZER:

Take o the doors.

Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

6

CFC/HCFC DISPOSAL

Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system that used CFCs or HCFCs (chloro uorocarbons or hydrochloro 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.

If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make sure the refrigerant is removed for proper disposal by a quali ed technician. If you intentionally release

refrigerant, you may be subject to nes and imprisonment under provisions of environmental legislation.

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 quali ed electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

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 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 o 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.

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.

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 quali ed technician. Do not operate the appliance with a damaged power cord.
