only electric outlet. The power cord
of the appliance is equipped with a
three-prong grounding plug for your
protection against electrical shock
hazards. It must be plugged directly
into a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle. The receptacle must be
installed in accordance with local codes
and ordinances. Consult a qualified
electrician. Do not use an extension
cord or adapter plug.
• Immediately repair or replace any

IMPORTANT
CFC/HCFC Disposal
Your old refrigerator may have
a cooling system that used CFCs
or HCFCs (chlorofluorocarbons or
hydrochlorofluorocarbons). CFCs
and HCFCs are believed to harm
stratospheric ozone if released to the
atmosphere. Other refrigerants may
also cause harm to the environment if
released to the atmosphere.
If you are throwing away your old
refrigerator, make sure the refrigerant
is removed for proper disposal by a
qualified technician. If you intentionally
release refrigerant, you may be subject
to fines and imprisonment under
provisions of environmental legislation.
• Unplug the unit before cleaning and
before replacing a light bulb to avoid
electrical shock.
•
Performance may be affected if
the voltage varies by 10% or more.
Operating the unit with insufficient
power can damage the compressor.
Such damage is not covered under your
warranty.
• Do not plug the unit into an outlet
controlled by a wall switch or pull cord
to prevent the unit from being turned
off accidentally.
• Avoid connecting unit to a Ground Fault
Interrupter (GFI) circuit.
