Please read and follow these
instructions

These instructions contain Warning and Caution
statements. This information is important for safe
and efficient installation and operation.

Always read and follow all Warning and Caution
statements!

Danger indicates a hazard which
will cause serious injury or death if
precautions are not followed.

Warning indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.

Caution indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, may result
in minor or moderate injury.

Disposal of Old Appliance

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.

• Remove the freezer drawers.

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

• 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

This highlights information that is especially
relevant to a problem-free installation and
operation.

Make sure incoming voltage is the same as the
appliance rating.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or
personal injury, installation work and electrical
wiring must be done by a qualified electrician
in accordance with all applicable codes and
standards, including fire-rated construction.

Electrical Safety

Connect this appliance to a 110-120 VAC, 15 amp
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.

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 the
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.

• To prevent possible injury due to an electrical
shock, be sure to disconnect the power cord or
turn off the circuit breaker before cleaning the
appliance.

• 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 previously frozen food that has
thawed.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.
