HOW TO CONNECTELECTRICITY
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.
Thepower cord of this appliance is equipped
with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates
with a standard :S-prong(grounding)wall outlet
to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard
from this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is
properly grounded.
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong outlet, it is
your personal responsibility and obligation to
have it replaced with a properly grounded
:S-prongwall outlet.
Therefrigerator should always be plugged into its
own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage
rating that matches the rating plate.
Thisprovides the best performance and also prevents
overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a
fire hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on
the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull
straight out from the outlet.
Repairor replace immediately all power cords that
have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not
usea 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.
