The larger slot in the adapter must be alignedwith the largerslotin the walloutletto provideproperpolarity in the connectionof the powercord.

CAUTION:Attaching an adapter ground terminal to the walloutlet 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. Youshould have circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter, alwayshold 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 ‘terminalbreak, DO NOT USE the app!imm until a proper ground has again been established.

Because of potential s:~fetyhazards under certain conditions. we strongly recommend against the USCof an extension cord. However, if you still elect to usc an extension ct}rd, it is absolutely IICCCSSWthat-}1 it bc :]LILIistmi .3-wiregroun~iing

agroundingtype plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 15amperes (minimum)and 120volts.

The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual electrical 43UBtkt— (115volt, 60 Hertz, singlephase AC). This is recommended for best performance and to prevent overloadinghouse wiring circuits, which could cause a fire hazard from overheatingwires.

Refrigerator location

Install the refrigeratoron a floor strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.

Do not install refrigeratorwhere temperature will go beIow60°F. because it will not run often enough to maintain proper temperatures.

Also see Energy-SavingTips regarding location.

clearances

AHOWthe following clearances for ease of installation and proper air circulation:

Sides,3/4” Top,1“ Back, 1“

If Model TBX19is to be installed agai~lsta wall on the hinge side,

allow 1Yi”for door clearance.

water supply to Ieemaker (on modelsso equipped)

Youwill need to connect your icemaker to a cold water line. A water supply kit containing copper tubing, shut-off %Talve,fittings and instructions is availableat extra cost from your dealer. There should be sufficient tubing for the icemaker from the cold water su13ply to allow you to move the refrigerator out from the wall several feet (approximately 8 feet of 1/4”copper tubing in three N1-inchdiameter coils).

Some models haveadjustaide rollersthat enableyou to move the refrigeratorawayfrom the wall for cleaning; other models have adjustablewkvelinglegs. Rollersor legs shouldbe set so the refrigerator is firmly positionedon the floor and the front is raisedjust enough that the doors close easily when opened about halfway.
