Electrical Requirement
• Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet)
with proper grounding to power the refrigerator.
• Avoid the use of three-prong adapters or cutting off the third grounding
in order to accommodate a two-prong outlet. This is a dangerous prac-
tice since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and may
result in shock hazard.
• Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated or
heated, e.g. garage etc. Your refrigerator was not designed to operate
in temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit.
• Select a suitable location for the refrigerator on a hard, even
surface away from direct sunlight or heat source (e.g. radiators,
baseboard heaters, cooking appliances etc.). Any floor unevenness
should be corrected with the leveling legs located on the front bottom
corners of the refrigerator.
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use
only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a
3-slot outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension
cord must be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the
appliance.
• Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to
thunderstorms or other causes. Remove the power cord from AC outlet
when a power outage occurs. When power has been restored, replug
power cord to AC outlet. If outage is for a prolonged period, inspect
and discard spoiled or thawed food in freezer and refrigerator. Clean
refrigerator before reusing.
