a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made
to a properly grounded two-prong wall outlet by the
use of a UL-listed adapter available at most local
hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with the
larger slot in the wall outlet to provide proper polarity
in the connection of the power cord.
CAUTION: Attaching the adapter ground terminal to
the wall outlet cover screw does not ground the
appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and not
insulated, and the wall outlet is grounded through the
house wiring. You should have the circuit checked by
a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is
properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power cord from the
adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand while
pulling the power cord with the other hand. If this is
not done, the adapter ground terminal is
likely to
break with repeated use.
Should the adapter ground terminal break, DO
NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has
again been established.
Use of Extension Cords
Because of the potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we
strongly recommend against the use of an extension cord. However, if
you still elect to use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a
UL-listed 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.
Plug the refrigerator into a grounded outlet, 115 Volt, 60 Hertz single
phase AC.
