•  The refrigerator must be plugged into its 

own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp, 

AC only electrical outlet. The power cord of 

the appliance is equipped with a three-

prong grounding plug for your protection 

against electrical shock hazards. It must be 

plugged directly into a properly grounded 

three prong receptacle. The receptacle 

must be installed in accordance with local 

codes and ordinances. Consult a qualified

electrician. Avoid connecting refrigerator to 

a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit. Do 

not use an extension cord or adapter plug.

•  If the power cord is damaged, it should 

be replaced by an authorized service 

technician to prevent any risk.

These guidelines must be followed to ensure 

that safety mechanisms in this refrigerator 

will operate properly.

Pressing and holding the On/Off button 

for three (3) seconds, located on the left 

side of the temperature control panel 

(Electronic controls), or turning the Freezer 

and Fresh Food controls to “0” (Mechanical 

controls) will disable your refrigerator’s 

cooling system, but does not disconnect the 

power to the light bulb and other electrical 

components. To turn off power to your 

refrigerator you must unplug the power cord 

from the electrical outlet.

To avoid personal injury or property 

damage, handle tempered glass shelves 

carefully. Shelves may break suddenly if 

nicked, scratched, or exposed to sudden 

temperature change.

•  Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on 

the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly,

and pull straight out from the receptacle to 

prevent damaging the power cord.

•  Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning 

and before replacing a light bulb to avoid 

electrical shock.

•  Performance may be affected if the voltage 

varies by 10% or more. Operating the 

refrigerator with insufficient power can

damage the compressor. Such damage is 

not covered under your warranty.

•  Do not plug the unit into an electrical outlet 

controlled by a wall switch or pull cord to 

prevent the refrigerator from being turned 

off accidentally.

Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not 

problems of the past. Junked or abandoned 

refrigerators or freezers are still dangerous 

– even if they will sit for “just a few days”. If 

you are getting rid of your old refrigerator or 

freezer, please follow the instructions below to 

help prevent accidents.
Proper Disposal of Refrigerators/Freezers
We strongly encourage responsible appliance 

recycling/disposal methods. Check with your 

utility company or visit  

www.recyclemyoldfridge.com for more 

information on recycling your old refrigerator.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator/

freezer:

•  Remove doors.
•  Leave shelves in 

place so children 

may not easily 

climb inside.

•  Have refrigerant 

removed by a 

qualified service

technician.
