WARNING
DANGER:
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
• Before replacing a burned-out or broken light bulb,
unplug the refrigerator or turn off power at the circuit
breaker or fuse box in order to avoid contact with a live
wire filament. (A burned-out light bulb may break when
being replaced exposing the wire filament.)
NOTE:
Some models have LED interior lighting and
service should be performed by a qualified technician.
WARNING:
Setting either or both controls to the OFF
position does not remove power to the light circuit.
• When you are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to
the electrical source and reset the controls (Thermostat,
Refrigerator Control, and or Freezer Control, depending
on the model) to the desired setting.
• This refrigerator must be properly installed in
accordance with the
Attention Installer Instructions
that
were taped to the front of the refrigerator.
• After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the
cold surfaces in the freezer compartment when hands
are damp or wet. Skin may adhere to the extremely cold
surfaces.
Junked or abandoned refrigerators are dangerous, even
if they are sitting for only a few days. If you are getting
rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the instructions
at right to help prevent accidents (child entrapment and
suffocation).
• DO NOT touch the automatic ice making mechanism
while the refrigerator is plugged in.
• DO NOT refreeze frozen foods which have thawed
completely. The United States Department of
Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 says:
…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have
thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are
still cold—below 39°F (4°C).
…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,
dispose of it. The food may be dangerous to eat.
Even partial thawing and refreezing reduces the
eating quality of foods, particularly fruits, vegetables
and prepared foods. The eating quality of red meats
is affected less than that of many other foods. Use
refrozen foods as soon as possible to save as much of
their quality as you can.
BEFORE YOU THROW AWAY
YOUR OLD REFRIGERATOR
OR FREEZER:
• Take off the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that
children may not easily climb inside
