Installation
POWER CORD
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove
the third (ground) prong from the power cord. For
personal safety, this appliance must be properly
grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with
a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a
standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize
the possibility of electric shock hazard from this
appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a
quali
fi
ed electrician to make sure the outlet is
properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it is your personal responsibility
and obligation to have it replaced with a properly
grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its
own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage
rating that matches the rating plate.
DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUG TO CONNECT THE
REFRIGERATOR TO A 2-PRONG OUTLET.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH THIS
APPLIANCE.
This provides the best performance and also
prevents overloading house wiring circuits, which
could cause a
fi
re hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the
power cord. Always grip plug
fi
rmly and pull straight
out from the outlet.
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.
When moving the refrigerator away from the wall,
be careful not to roll over or damage the power
cord.
REFRIGERATOR LOCATION
Do not install the refrigerator where temperatures
will be below 60°F (16°C) because it will not maintain
proper temperatures, and the refrigerator could
develop high internal humidity.
For proper installation, the refrigerator must be
placed on a level surface of hard material the same
height as the rest of the
fl
ooring.
This surface should be strong enough to support a
fully loaded refrigerator, or approximately 1,200 lbs.
each. See the Installation Instructions for complete
directions.
