SAFETY
Read and follow all the safety rules and operating instructions before using this appliance. Save these instructions for future reference. Throughout this instruction manual are specific Important instructions, Cautions and Warnings.
IMPORTANT
This highlights information that is especially relevant to a problem-free installation.
! CAUTION
Signals a situation where minor injury or product damage may occur if you do not follow instructions.
! WARNING
States a hazard which may cause serious injury or death if precautions are not followed.
! DANGER
States a hazard will cause serious injury or death if precautions are not followed.
Disposal of Old Appliance
Be sure to follow your local requirements for disposal of appliances. Discarded appliances can be dangerous.
! DANGER
Risk of child entrapment. Before you discard your old refrigerator or freezer:
•Be sure to follow your local requirements for disposal of appliances. Discarded appliances can be dangerous.
•Remove the doors.
•Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
•Cut off the prongs from the power cable plug and discard them.
•Cut off the power cable from the discarded refrigerator. Discard separately from the refrigerator.
Following these instructions reduces the possibility of causing personal injury, especially to children playing.
Contact the trash collection agency in your area for additional information.
Important Safety Information
This appliance is intended for domestic use only. Use the appliance only for its intended purpose, the storage of food products. Follow the cautions and safety warnings throughout this instruction manual including the following:
•To prevent injury to you or damage to the unit, the appliance should be unpacked and set up by two people.
•If the appliance is damaged on delivery, contact the supplier immediately before connecting to the power source.
•To guarantee safe operation, ensure that appliance is set up and connected as described in these operating instructions.
•Disconnect the appliance from the power source if a fault occurs. Pull out the plug, turn off or remove the fuse.
•When disconnecting the appliance, use the plug. Do not pull on the cable.
•Any repairs and work on the appliance should only be carried out by the customer service department. Unauthorized work may be dangerous to the user. Changing the power source cable should only be done by the customer service department.
•Do not eat ice cream, particularly ice cream treats, or ice cubes, immediately from the freezer compartment. There is a risk of “burning” because of the very cold temperatures.
•Do not consume food which has been stored for too long; it could cause food poisoning.
•The appliance is designed for cooling, freezing and storage of food, and for making ice. It is intended for domestic use. If used for commercial purposes, the relevant legal regulations applicable to the trade concerned must be observed.
•Do not store explosives or sprays using combustible propellants such as butane, propane, pentane, etc. in the appliance.
Electrical components might cause leaking gas to ignite. You may identify such sprays by the printed contents or a flame symbol.

SAFETY
•Do not use electrical appliances inside the appliance.
•Do not allow children to play with the appliance. Children must not climb, sit or stand on the shelves, drawers or door.
•To prevent possible injury due to an electrical shock, be sure to disconnect the power cord or turn off the circuit breaker before replacing the interior light or cleaning the appliance.
•To prevent possible injury due to broken glass, use hand protection when replacing the interior light.
•To avoid injury or damage to the appliance, do not use steam cleaning equipment to clean the appliance.
•Do not operate the refrigerator in the presence of explosive fumes.
•In the event of a power outage, minimize opening the refrigerator door(s). Protect the food either by placing dry ice on top of the packages or using a local frozen food locker if the power failure is of a long duration. Do not attempt to re-freeze any thawed previously frozen food.
•To avoid possible injury, only adjust an empty shelf. Do not attempt to adjust a shelf with food on it.
•To protect the refrigerator from possible damage, allow the appliance to stand 1/2 to 1 hour in place before turning the electricity on. This allows the refrigerant and system lubrication to reach equilibrium.
Electrical Safety
Connect this appliance to a 110-120 VAC, 15 amp (20 Amp for side-by-side installations) circuit that is controlled by a circuit breaker or fuse. This appliance should have its own separate grounded circuit. Do not use an extension cord.
The power cord is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your protection against possible shock hazards. To maintain this protection:
•Do not modify the plug by removing the round grounding prong.
•Do not use a two-prong adapter. Where a twoprong wall receptacle is encountered, contact a qualified electrician and have it replaced with a three-prong receptacle in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
•Do not use a power cord that is frayed or damaged.
IceMaker (if equipped)
The icemaker for a combined refrigerator-freezer is located in the freezer compartment. It must be connected to the water supply to function properly. These instructions only refer to the installation and operation of the icemaker. Please refer to the Use and Care Manual provided with the appliance for other installation and operation instructions. The combined refrigerator-freezer must be level for the icemaker to function properly.
Safety Instructions and
Warnings
•Do not make the water connection while the combined refrigerator-freezer is connected to an electrical outlet.
•The connection to the water supply may only be made by a trained and licensed plumber.
•The water quality must comply with the drinking water regulations for the geographical area where the appliance is located.
•The icemaker is designed exclusively to make ice cubes in quantities needed by a
household and may only be operated with water appropriate for this purpose.
•All repairs and work on the icemaker may only be done by customer service personnel or other trained personnel.
•Do not consume or use the first three batches of ice. This applies both to using the appliance for the first time and also using it after it has not been used for a long period of time.
•The manufacturer cannot accept liability for damage caused by equipment or water lines between the solenoid valve and the water supply.
