This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
IMPORTANT WARNING
An empty refrigerator is a very dangerous attraction to children. Remove either the gasket or lid from unused appliances, or take some other action that will guarantee it harmless.
WARNING
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the ground- ing instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
Use an exclusive wall outlet. Do not connect your refrigerator to exten- sion cords or together with any other appliance in the same wall outlet.
DANGER: Risk off child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:
•Take off the doors.
•Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb in.
DON’T WAIT DO IT NOW!
Installation Instructions
Remove exterior and interior packings, wipe the outside thoroughly with a soft dry cloth and the inside with a wet, lukewarm cloth. Avoid placing the unit in a narrow recess or near any heat source, direct sunlight, or mois- ture. Let air circulate freely around the unit. Keep the rear of the refrigera- tor 5 inches away from the wall.
LOCATION
1)Select a place with a strong, level floor.
2)Allow 5 inches of space between the back of the refrigerator and any adjacent wall.
3)Avoid direct sunlight and heat. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating. Heat sources nearby will cause higher electricity consumption.
The refrigerating system in this refrigerator is a “Frost Free” system. This type of system requires no user intervention (i.e. defrosting) other than selecting required cooling temperatures and the usual care and maintenance.
To avoid vibration, the unit must be set level. This is accomplished by adjusting the (2) front leveling legs, located under the refrigerator. To begin the cooling process, turn the graduated dial to the desired temperature. The minimum cooling setting is 1, and the maximum setting is Max. We recommend setting the thermostat at 4, our medium setting, and adjust as required.
