Electrical Requirements
Recommended Grounding Method
Before you move your refrigerator into its final location, it is important to make sure you have the proper
electrical connection:
• A standard electrical supply (115 V, 60Hz), properly grounded in accordance with the National Electrical
Code and local codes and ordinances, is required.
• It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your refrigerator, be provided. Use receptacles that
cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
• The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 Amps.
For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. It is equipped with a power supply cord that has a
3-pronged grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-pronged
wall socket, and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. If a
mating wall socket is not available, it is the personal responsibility of the customer to have a properly grounded,
3-prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
