INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

WARNING

LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

IMPORTANT: This refrigerator is designed for freestanding installation

only. It should not be recessed or built-in an enclosed cabinet. To ensure

your refrigerator works at optimum efficiency, you should install it in a

location where there is proper air circulation, and electrical connections.

Explosion and Fire Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from

appliance.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion or fire.

Recommended Clearances:

Ŷ Your refrigerator is designed for use in a location where the temperature

ranges from a minimum of 55°F (13°C) to a maximum of 110°F (43°C).

Ŷ It is recommended that you do

not install the refrigerator in

direct sunlight or near a heat

source e.g. radiators, baseboard

heaters, cooking appliances etc.

Ŷ Place the refrigerator on a floor

strong enough to support it fully

loaded. If the floor is uneven,

adjust the leveling legs so that

the refrigerator is level. See

“Level Refrigerator.”

(10.2 cm)

LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

• Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go below

55°F (13°C) because it will not run often enough to maintain proper

temperatures.

• Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go above

110°F (43°C) because it will not perform properly.

• Install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully loaded.

• Do not install the refrigerator in a location exposed to water (rain,

etc.) or direct sunlight.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

ENGLISH

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground)

prong from the power cord. For personal safety, this appliance must

be properly grounded.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding)

plug which mates with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to

minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make

sure the outlet is properly grounded.

Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your personal

responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded

3-prong wall outlet.

The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual

electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating plate.

A 115 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded electrical supply

is required. This provides the best performance and also prevents

overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from

overheated wires.

Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grip

plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.

Immediately discontinue use of a damaged supply cord. If the supply

cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified service professional

with an authorized service part from the manufacturer.

When moving the refrigerator away from the wall, be careful not to roll

over or damage the power cord.

CONNECTING ELECTRICITY

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.

Do not remove the ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or

electrical shock.

49-60808-1

IMPORTANT: Handle with care when moving refrigerator to avoid either

damaging the refrigerant tubing or increasing the risk of a leak.

IMPORTANT: When moving the refrigerator, never tilt it more than a 45°

angle. This could damage the compressor and the sealed system. If the

refrigerator has been placed in a horizontal position for any period of time,

wait 30 minutes before plugging in the refrigerator to allow the refrigerant

to settle.

REMOVE PACKAGING

Ŷ Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the

refrigerator. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with

your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.

NOTE: Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids,

or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage

the surface of your refrigerator. For more information, see “Refrigerator

Safety.”

Ŷ Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials.

CLEAN BEFORE USING

After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside of the

refrigerator before using it. See the cleaning instructions in “Refrigerator Care.”
