IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Proper Disposal of
your Appliance
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are
not problems of the past. Junked or
abandoned appliances are still dangerous
– even if they will sit for "just a few days".
If you are getting rid of your old, please
follow the instructions below to help
prevent accidents.
Proper Disposal of Appliances
We strongly encourage responsible
appliance recycling/disposal methods.
Check with your utility company or visit
www.energystar.gov/recycle for more
information on recycling your old unit.
Before you throw away your old unit:
• Remove doors.
• Leave shelves
in place so
children may
not easily
climb inside.
• Have
refrigerant
removed by
a qualified
service
technician.
WARNING
These guidelines must be followed to
ensure that safety mechanisms in this
refrigerator will operate properly.

Electrical information

• The refrigerator must be plugged into
its own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz.,
15 Amp, AC only electrical outlet.
The power cord of the appliance is
equipped with a 3-prong grounding
plug for your protection against
electrical shock hazards. It must
be plugged directly into a properly
grounded 3-prong receptacle. The
receptacle must be installed in
accordance with local codes and
ordinances. Consult a qualified
electrician. Avoid connecting
refrigerator to a Ground Fault
Interrupter (GFI) circuit. Do not use
an extension cord or adapter plug.
• If the power cord is damaged, it
should be replaced by an authorized
service technician to prevent any risk.
• Never unplug the refrigerator by
pulling on the power cord. Always
grip the plug firmly, and pull straight
out from the receptacle to prevent
damaging the power cord.
• Unplug the refrigerator before
cleaning and before replacing a light
to avoid electrical shock.
• Performance may be affected if the
voltage varies by 10% or more.
Operating the refrigerator with
insufficient power can damage the
compressor. Such damage is not
covered under your warranty.
• Do not plug the unit into an electrical
outlet controlled by a wall switch or
pull cord to prevent the refrigerator
from being turned off accidentally.
