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., AC only 15 or 20 ampere fused, grounded 
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. 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.

Base Grille

To remove the base grille:

1.

Open both refrigerator doors.

2.

Place hands along the ends of the grille, with your thumbs 
along the top. Push in with your thumbs and pull up on the 
bottom.

NOTE: 

Be sure to refasten the Tech Sheet behind the base grille 

after cleaning.

To replace the base grille:

1.

Open the doors.

2.

Line up the grille support tabs with the metal clips.

3.

Push the grille firmly to snap it into place.
