Read Carefully.
Use of Adapter Plug
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we strongly
recommend against use of an adapter
plug. However, if you still elect to
use an adapter, where local codes
permit, a TEMPORARY
maybe made to a
properly grounded two-prong
outlet by use of a
listed adapter
(Fig. 2) available at most local
hardware stores.
INSURE PROPER GROUND
AND FIRM
BEFORE USE
The
slot in the adapter must be
aligned-with the larger
in the
outlet to provide proper polarity
in the connection of the power cord.
CAUTION: Attaching an adapter
ground terminal to
outlet cover
screw does not ground an appliance
unless cover screw is metal, and
insulated, and
outlet is
grounded through house wiring.
You should have 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.
If this is not done, the adapter
ground terminal is very likely to
break with repeated use.
Should the adapter ground
terminal
DO NOT USE the
appliance until a proper ground
has again been established.
Use of Extension Cords
Because of 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
listed 3-wire grounding
type appliance extension cord
having a grounding type plug and
4
outlet and that the electrical rating
of the cord be 15 amperes
(minimum) and 120 volts.
The refrigerator should always
be plugged into
own
individual electrical
(115 volt, 60 Hertz, or 100 volt, 50
Hertz, single phase AC). This is
recommended for best performance
and to prevent overloading house
wiring circuits, which could cause a
fire hazard from overheating wires.
Refrigerator Location
Do not install refrigerator where
temperature will go below
because it will not run often enough
to maintain proper temperatures.
Do install it on a floor strong
enough to support it fully loaded.

regarding location.
Clearances
Allow the following clearances for
ease of installation, proper air
circulation, and plumbing and
electrical connections:
Sides . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Water Supply to
You will need to connect your
to a cold water line. A
water supply kit containing copper
tubing, shut-off valve, fittings and
instructions is available at extra cost
from your dealer. There should be
sufficient tubing for the
from the cold water supply to allow
moving the refrigerator out from the
several feet (approximately 8
feet of 1/4” copper tubing in three
10-inch diameter coils).
Rollers
Adjustable rollers behind the base
grille enable you to move your
refrigerator away from the
for
cleaning. These rollers should be set
so the refrigerator rests
on the
floor. To
that the
will
close automatically from a halfway -
open position, there is a built-in tilt
from the front to the back of the
cabinet. Side-by-side refrigerators
have specially designed door
hinges that lift both doors
when opened, allowing the force of
gravity to help close them securely.
To adjust rollers, remove the base
grille by grasping it at the bottom
and pulling it out.
—
the roller adjusting screws
clockwise to raise the refrigerator,
counterclockwise to lower it. Use
an adjustable wrench (3/8” hex
head bolt) or pliers.
When adjusting front rollers for
proper door closure, we recommend
the bottom front edge of the cabinet
be approximately 5/8” from the floor.
To replace base grille, align prongs
-
on back of
with clamps in
cabinet and-push forward
grille snaps into place.
