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 plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding
pin order to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous
practice since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator
and may result in shock hazard.
• 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.
• 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.
