RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD

The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual properly grounded electrical outlet rated for 115 Volts, 60 Hz, AC only, and fused at 15 or 20 amperes. This provides the best performance and also prevents

overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires. It is recommended that a

separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.

Use a receptacle that cannot be turned off: with a switch or putt chain. Do not use an extension cord.

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

it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall outlet.

USE OF EXTENSION CORDS

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, the use of an extension cord is nat

recommended. However, if you stiN elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL- listed (USA), 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.

Use of an extension cord will increase the clearance needed for the back of the refrigerator.
