HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its
own individual electrical outlet which has a volt-
age rating that matches the rating plate.
This provides the best performance and also prevents overload-
ing house wiring circuits, which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated wires.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling the
power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull
straight out from the outlet.
Make sure that the power plug is not squashed or
damaged by the back of the refrigerator.
Do not bend the power cord excessively or place
heavy articles on it.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become
frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows
cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. If
the power cord is damaged, have it replaced immediately by the
manufacturer or its service agent.
When moving the refrigerator, be careful not to
roll over or damage the power cord.
Do not insert the power plug with wet hands.
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and mak-
ing repairs.
Do not use a wet or damp cloth when cleaning the plug.
Remove any foreign matter or dust from the power plug pins.
• Otherwise there is a risk of fire.
• If the refrigerator is disconnected from the power supply, you should wait
for at least five minutes before plugging it back.
Pull the power plug out of the socket before
changing the interior light of the refrigerator.
Otherwise, there is a risk of electric shock.
