READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
w
WARNING:
When using this appliance,
always exercise basic safety precautions, including
the following:
• Use this appliance only for its intended purpose
as described in this Owner’s Manual.
• This refrigerator must be properly installed in
accordance with the Installation Instructions
before it is used.
• Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang
on the shelves in the refrigerator.
They could
damage the refrigerator and seriously injure
themselves.
• Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer
compartment when hands are damp or wet.
Skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
• In refrigerators with automatic icemakers,
avoid contact with moving parts of the ejector
mechanism, or with the heating element located
on the bottom of the icemaker. Do not place
fingers or hands on the automatic icemaking
mechanism while the refrigerator is plugged in.
• 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.
• Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning and
making repairs. NOTE:
We strongly recommend
that any servicing be performed by a qualified
individual.
• Before replacing a burned-out light bulb,
the refrigerator should be unplugged in order
to avoid contact with a live wire filament.
(A burned-out light bulb may break when
being replaced.)
NOTE:
Turning control to OFF does not remove
power to the light circuit.
• Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed
completely.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

DANGER:
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are
still dangerous…even if they will sit 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.
•
Leave the shelves in place so that children
may not easily climb inside.
REFRIGERANTS
All refrigeration products contain refrigerants, which
under federal law must be removed prior to product
disposal.
If you are getting rid of an old refrigeration product,
check with the company handling the disposal
about what to do.
