Use of Adapter Plugs

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against use of an adapter plug. However, if you still elect to use an adapter, where local codes permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made to a properly grounded two-prong wall outlet by use of a UL listed adapter (Fig. 2), available at most local hardware stores.

The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with the larger slot in the wall outlet to provide proper polarity in the connection of the power cord.

CAUTION: Attaching an adapter ground terminal to the wall outlet cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and not insulated, and the wall outlet is grounded through the house wiring. You should have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is very likely to break with repeated use.

Should the adapter ground terminal break, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has again been established.

PROBLEM

REFRIGERATOR DOES NOT OPERATE

MOTOR OPERATES FOR LONG PERIODS

MOTOR STARTS & STOPS FREQUENTLY

VIBRATION OR

RATTLING

POSSIBLE CAUSE

s May be in defrost cycle when motor does not operate for about 30 minutes.

●Numbered temperature control set at “0.”

●If interior light is not on, refrigerator may not be plugged in at wall outlet.

s If plug is secure and the refrigerator still fails to operate, plug a lamp or a small appliance into the same outlet to determine if there is a tripped circuit breaker or burned out fuse.

●Normal when refrigerator is first delivered to your home—usually requires 24 hours to completely cool down.

Q Large amounts of food placed in refrigerator to be cooled or frozen. Q Hot weather—frequent door openings.

●Door left open.

c Temperature controls are set too cold. Refer to instructions for use of TEMPERATURE CONTROLS.

s Check ENERGY-SAVING TIPS.

●Temperature control starts and stops motor to maintain even temperatures.

●If refrigerator vibrates, more than likely it is not resting solidly on the floor and front leveling legs need adjusting or floor is weak or uneven. Refer to LEVELING LEGS.

●If dishes vibrate on shelves, try moving them. Slight vibration is normal.
