ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

Make sure there is a suitable power outlet. 115 Volt, 15 Amp, 3-prong (grounded) power outlet with
•
proper grounding to power the refrigerator.
Avoid the use of 3-prong adapters or cutting off the third grounding prong in order to accommodate a
•
2-prong outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator
and may result in a shock or fire hazard.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS - POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD
Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions. If it is
•
necessary to use an extensions cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-prong grounding plug
and a 3-prong outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord must be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD LONGER THAN 12 FT.

INSTALLATION GUIDE

INSTALLATION LIMITATIONS

Select a suitable location for the refrigerator on a hard, even surface away from direct sunlight or heat
•
source, e.g. radiators, baseboard heaters, cooking appliances, etc. Any floor unevenness should be
corrected with the leveling legs located on the front bottom corners of the refrigerator.
UNPACKING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the corrugated base and all adhesive tape holding the
refrigerator accessories inside and outside. Retain foam block between doors if door swing reversal is
required.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before powering on the refrigerator.
3. If your refrigerator comes with a snack pan, remove the blue adhesive tape from the rear of the pan. The
pan will not slide in and out without removing the tape.
4. If your refrigerator comes with smooth or stainless steel doors, please remove the clear film before
turning it on for the first time. When removing film, do not pull the film straight down as this could result in
misaligned doors.
5. It is normal for the freezer door to be positioned slightly higher than the top of the cabinet when the
refrigerator is first installed. This positioning is done at the factory to ensure gasket seals properly once
the door is weighted with food items.
LEVELING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
All four corners of the cabinet must rest firmly on the floor.
•
The cabinet must sit level from side to side.
•
The cabinet must tilt slightly (¼"or 6mm) from front to back for the doors to seal
•
properly.
Turn the leveling legs to raise or lower the cabinet.
