IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
WARNING—when
this
appliance,
exercise basic
precautions, including the
following:
●
Use this appliance only for its
intended purpose as described in
this Use and Care Book.
●
This refrigerator must be
properly installed in accordance
with the Installation Instructions
before it is used. See grounding
instructions
and on page 4.
●
Never unplug your refrigerator
by pulling on the power cord.
Always grip plug firmly and pull
straight out from the outlet.
Repair or replace immediately
all electric service cords that
have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do not use a cord that
shows cracks or abrasion damage
its length or at either the plug
or connector end.
When moving your refrigerator
away from the wall, be careful
not to roll over or damage the
power cord.
●
After your refrigerator is in
operation, do not touch the cold
surfaces, particularly when hands
are damp or wet. Skin may adhere
to these extremely cold surfaces.
. Do not place fingers or hands
on the automatic
mechanism while the refrigerator
is plugged in. This will prevent
contact with the moving parts of
the ejector mechanism, or with
the heating element that releases
the cubes.
●
Don’t refreeze frozen foods
which have thawed completely.
The United States Department of
Agriculture in Home and Garden
Bulletin No. 69 says:
“. .
may safely refreeze frozen
foods that have thawed if they still
contain ice crystals or if they are
still cold—below
“. .
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, get rid of it.
The food may be dangerous to eat.
“Even partial thawing and refreezing
reduce 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 eating
quality as you
. If your old refrigerator is still
around the house but not in use,
be sure to remove the doors. This
will reduce the possibility of
danger to children.
●
Unplug your refrigerator.
A. Before making any repairs.
Note: We strongly recommend
that any servicing be performed
by a qualified individual.
B. Before cleaning.
C. Before replacing a burned-out
light bulb, the refrigerator should
be unplugged in order to avoid
contact with a live wire filament.
(A burned-out light bulb may
break when being replaced.)
Note: Turning control to OFF
position does not remove power
to the light circuit.
●
not operate your refrigerator
in the presence of explosive fumes.
