• Contact a qualified electrical installer.

• Read all instructions before using the

refrigerator.

• Observe all local codes and ordinances.

Install refrigerator according to installation
instructions. All connections for water,
electrical power and grounding must
comply with local codes and be made by
licensed personnel when required.

• DO NOT modify plug on power cord. If

plug does not fit electrical outlet, have
proper outlet installed by a qualified
technician. Replace worn power cords
and/or loose plugs.

• Assure that the electrical installation is

adequate and in conformance with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70-latest edition or Canadian Electrical
Code C22.1-1998 and C22.2 No. 0-M91
(or latest edition), and all local codes and
ordinances. (115 volt, 60-Hz, 15 amp,
fused, electrical supply is required. It is
required that a separate circuit serving only
this appliance be provided. This appliance
is equipped with a power supply cord
having a 3-prong grounding plug. To
minimize possible shock hazard, the cord
must be plugged into a mating 3-prong,
grounding type wall receptacle. If a
2-prong receptacle is encountered, the
customer must contact a qualified
electrical installer to have it replaced with a
properly grounded 3-prong receptacle.
DO NOT use an extension cord or adapter
plug.

recommended in Use & Care or Installation
Instructions. DO NOT attempt service if

are beyond personal skill level.

• Always disconnect refrigerator from
electrical supply before attempting to
change light bulbs, clean, or service the
refrigerator. Disconnect the power cord by
grasping the plug, not the cord.

• Always read and follow manufacturer’s
storage and ideal environment instructions
for items being stored in refrigerator.

• DO NOT allow children to operate, play
with, crawl inside or stand on any part of
the refrigerator.
