Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer:

Take off the doors.

WARNING

Suffocation Hazard

Remove doors from your old refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.

REFRIGERATOR USE

Using the Controls

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

NOTE: Make sure the refrigerator is plugged into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

For your convenience, your refrigerator controls are preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the controls are still preset to the mid-settings as shown.

IMPORTANT:

The refrigerator control adjusts the refrigerator compartment temperature. The freezer control adjusts the freezer compartment temperature.

The displays normally show the actual temperatures inside the refrigerator and freezer compartments. Sometimes, temperatures may vary slightly in different areas of each compartment. For example, frequently opening the door allows air from the room to enter the compartment, exposing door bins to room-temperature air. When reading the display, keep in mind that it shows an average temperature for the entire compartment. If you want to view the temperature you set for the compartment rather than the actual temperature, see “Viewing Set Points.”
