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 TEMPOWRY

 maybe made to a

properly grounded two-prong wall

 by use of a 

 listed adapter

(Fig. 2) available at most local

hardware stores.

 INSURE PROPER 

AND FIRM CON

NECTION

BEFORE USE

The larger 

 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 an 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

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

 break, DO 

 USE the

appliance until a proper ground
has again been established.

Use of 

 cords

Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we
strongly recommend against the

use of an extension cord. However,
if you 

 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 outlet

and that the electrical rating of the

cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and

120 

 Such extension cords are

obtainable through your local
service organization.

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

Install the refrigerator 

 a floor

strong enough to support it when
it is fully loaded.

Do not install refrigerator where
temperature will go below 

because it will not run often enough
to maintain proper temperatures.
Also see Energy-Saving Tips
regarding location.

Clearances

Allow the following clearances

for ease of installation and proper

air circulation:
Sides. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3/4”

Top . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1“
Back. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1“

If refrigerator is to be installed
against a wall on the hinge side,

allow   

 for door clearance.

Water supply to 

You 

will need to connect your

 to a cold water line. A

water supply kit containing copper

tubing, shutoff 

 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 wall several feet
(approximately 3 coils of l/4-inch
copper tubing that measures at
least 10 inches in diameter).

4

Rollers

Adjustable rollers, 

which enable

you to move the refrigerator away
from the wall for cleaning, are
located near the front corners of the

refrigerator. Set these rollers so the
refrigerator is firmly positioned on
the floor and the front is raised just

enough that the doors close easily
when opened about halfway.

II

To adjust the rollers, 

turn the

 adjusting screws clockwise to

raise the refrigerator, counterclock-

wise to lower it. Use a blade-type
screwdriver.

 adjusting front rollers for proper

door closure, we recommend that
the bottom front edge of the cabinet
be approximately 3/4” from the floor.

You can turn the adjusting screws

through openings in the base grille.

I

I

I

 you would rather remove the

base grille, 

grasp the bottom of the

grille and pull it out.

To replace the base grille, 

lineup

the clips on the back of the grille
with the openings in the baseplate
and push the 

 forward until it

snaps into place.
