Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this
use and care guide.
2.
This must be properly installed in accordance with the

3.
Never unplug your convertible freezer / refrigerator by pulling on the
power cord. Always grasp the plug firmly and pull straight out from
the outlet.
4.
Repair or replace immediately, all electric service cords that have
become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows
cracks or abrasion damage along its length, the plug or the connec-
tor end.
5.
Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or before making any
repairs. Note: If for any reason this product requires service, we
strongly recommend that a certified technician performs the
service.
6.
Do not use any electrical device or any sharp instrument in
defrosting your refrigerator.
7.
If your old refrigerator is not being used, we recommend that you
remove the doors. This will reduce the possibility of danger to
children.
8.
After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold
surfaces in the convertible freezer / refrigerator compartment,
particularly when hands are damp or wet. Skin may adhere to these
extremely cold surfaces.
9.
Do not refreeze foods, which have been thawed completely. The
United States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden
Bulletin No. 69 reads: "…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that
have thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are still
cold-below 40˚F".
"…Thawed ground meats, poultry, or fish that have any off-odor or
off-color should not be refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice
cream should be discarded. If the odor or color of any food is poor
or questionable, discard it. The food may be dangerous to eat."
