„
 This refrigerator must be properly installed and located in 
accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.
„
 Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and making repairs.
„
 NOTE:  Repairs must be performed by a qualified Service 
Professional.
„
 Replace all parts and panels before operating.
„
 Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we 
strongly  
recommend against the use of an extension cord. However, if you 
must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a 
UL-listed (in the United States) or a CSA certified (in Canada), 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.
„
 To prevent suffocation and entrapment hazards to children, 
Remove the fresh food and freezer doors from any refrigerator 
before disposing of it or discontinuing its use.
„
 Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and 
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
„
 Power to the refrigerator cannot be disconnected by any 
setting on the control panel, refrigerator must be unplugged to 
remove power.
„
 Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the door handles 
or the shelves in the refrigerator. They could seriously injure 
themselves.
„
 In refrigerators with automatic ice makers, avoid contact with 
the moving parts of the ejector mechanism, or with the heating 
element that releases the cubes. Do not place fingers or hands 
on the automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is 
plugged in.
„
 Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when 
they are cold. Glass shelves and covers may break if exposed 
to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping or 
dropping.  Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small 
pieces if it breaks.
„
 Keep fingers out of the “pinch point” areas; clearances between 
the doors and between the doors and cabinet are necessarily 
small. Be careful closing doors when children are in the area.
„
 Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment when 
hands are damp or wet, skin may stick to these extremely cold 
surfaces.
„
 Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed completely.
„
 Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice (on models with ice 
dispenser)
