Electrical Requirements
Before you move your refrigerator into its final location, it is
important to make sure you have the proper electrical
connection:
Recommended Grounding Method
A 115 Volt, 60 Hz. (Plug 1), 220/240 Volt/50 Hz (Plugs 2 or 3), or
220 Volt/60Hz (Plug 3) AC only 10 ampere fused and grounded
(earthed) electrical supply is required.
It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your
refrigerator be provided. Use an outlet that cannot be turned off
by a switch or pull chain. Do not use an extension cord.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or
removing a light bulb, turn the control, (Thermostat, Refrigerator
or Freezer Control depending on the model) to OFF and then
disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you
are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source
and reset the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator or Freezer Control
depending on the model) to the desired setting.
