IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This guide contains many important safety messages. Always read and obey.

This is the safety alert symbol. It alerts you to safety messages that inform you of hazards that can kill or hurt

you or others, or cause damage to the product. All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol

and the hazard signal word DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION. These words mean:

DANGER You will be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

WARNING You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

CAUTION Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result injury, or product damage only in

minor or moderate.

All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury and tell you what can happen if the

instructions are not followed.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of re, electric shock or injury to persons

when using your product, basic safety precautions should

be followed, including the following. Read all instructions

before using this appliance:

• NEVER unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power

cord. Always grip the plug rmly and pull it 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 along 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 it in any way.

• Do not crush or damage the water line.

• Do not store or use gasoline or other ammable vapors or

liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

• Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the

refrigerator doors or shelves in the refrigerator. They could

damage the refrigerator and seriously injure themselves.

• Keep ngers out of ‘pinch point’ areas; clearances between

the doors and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful when

you open the doors when children are in the area.

• Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or making any

repairs. NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing

be performed by a qualied individual.

• Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment, they may

break when frozen, causing damage.

• The refrigerator-freezer should be positioned so that the

supply plug is accessible for quick disconnection if an

accident happens.

• For personal safety, this appliance must be properly

grounded. Have the wall outlet and the circuit checked by

a qualied electrician to make sure the outlet is properly

grounded.

• This refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance

with the ‘Attention Installer’ instructions that were taped to

the front of the refrigerator.

• After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold

surfaces in the freezer compartment when hands are damp

or wet. Skin may adhere to the extremely cold surfaces.

• In refrigerator with automatic icemakers, avoid contact

with the moving parts of the ejector mechanism, or with the

heating element that releases the cubes. DO NOT place

ngers or hands on the automatic ice making mechanism

while the refrigerator is plugged in.

• DO NOT refreeze frozen foods which have thawed

completely. The United States Department of Agriculture in

Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 says:

"...You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if

they still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold below 40

°F (4 °C)."

"Thawed ground meats, poultry, or sh that have any o-odor

or o-color should not be frozen 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 reduces the eating

quality of foods, particularly fruits, vegetables and prepared

foods. The eating quality of red meats is aected less than

that of many other foods. Use refrozen foods as soon as

possible to save as much of their quality as you can."
