UNPACKING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Remove Packaging
Your refrigerator has been packed for shipment with all parts
that could be damaged by movement securely fastened. Cut
the banding material at the bottom of the carton, unfold the
carton at the bottom and remove the carton from the appliance.
Remove the plastic bag, styrofoam corner posts and any tape
holding the door closed and internal components in place. The
owners manual is shipped inside the refrigerator in a plastic bag
along with the warranty registration card.
Important
Keep your carton packaging until your refrigerator has been
thoroughly inspected and found to be in good condition. If there
is damage, the packaging will be needed as proof of damage in
transit. Afterwards please dispose of all items responsibly in
particular the plastic bags which can be a suffocation hazard.

Help Prevent Tragedies
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past.
Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous - even if
they sit out for “just a few days”.
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the
instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:
• Take off the doors or remove the drawers.
• Leave the shelves in place so children may not easily climb
inside.
If the unit was shipped or has been laying on its back for any
period of time allow the refrigerator to sit upright for a period of
at least 24 hours before plugging in. This will assure oil returns
to the compressor. Plugging the refrigerator in immediately may
cause damage to internal parts.
It is important you send in your warranty registration card im
-
mediately after taking delivery of your refrigerator.
The following information will be required when registering your
unit.
