IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

wWARNING–When using this appliance, always exercise basic safety precautions, including the following:

•Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.

•This refrigerator/freezer must be properly installed in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.

•Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the shelves in the refrigerator/freezer. They could damage the refrigerator/freezer and seriously injure themselves.

•Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment when hands are damp or wet. Skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.

•Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

•Your freezer has an automatic icemaker—avoid contact with the moving parts of the ejector mechanism, or with the heating element located on the bottom

of the icemaker. Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic icemaking mechanism while the freezer is plugged in.

•Unplug your refrigerator/freezer before cleaning and making repairs. NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing be performed by a qualified individual.

•Before replacing a burned-out light bulb,

the refrigerator/freezer should be unplugged in order to avoid contact with a live wire filament. (A burned-out light bulb may break when being replaced.) NOTE: Turning control to OFF does not remove power to the light circuit.

•Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed completely.

wDANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerator/freezers are still dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator/freezer, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.

Before You Throw Away Your Old

Refrigerator/Freezer or Freezer:

•Take off the doors.

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

All refrigeration products contain refrigerants, which under federal law must be removed prior to product disposal. If you are getting rid of an old refrigeration product, check with the company handling the disposal about what to do.
