PREPARATION

(continued)

Preparing to move

Disconnect power cord from wall outlet, remove all food, and clean and dry the interior.

Secure all loose items such as grille, shelves and storage pans and ice trays by taping them securely in place to prevent damage.

Be sure refrigerator stays in upright position during actual moving and in van. Refrigerator must be secured in van to prevent movement. Protect the outside of the refrigerator with a blanket.

Preparing for Vacation

For extended vacations or absences, shut off power to refrigerator, turn the numbered control to “O,” and clean interior with baking soda solution of one tablespoon of baking soda to one quart of water. Wipe dry. To prevent odors, leave open box of soda in refrigerator. Leave doors open.

For shorter vacations, remove perishable foods and leave controls at regular settings. However, if room temperature is expected to drop below 60”F., follow same instructions as for extended vacations.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

IMPORTANT... Please Read Carefully

How to Connect Electricity

For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three prong (grounding) plug which mates with

astandard three-prong (grounding) wall outlet (Fig. 1 ) to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.

BEFORE USE

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

Where a standard two-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with

aproperly grounded three-prong wall outlet.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY

CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUNDING) PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD.

Use of Extension Cords

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of an extension cord. However, if you still elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and 120 volts.

Electrical Requirements

The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating plate. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheating wires.
