Donot, 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 (gromMing) plug which mates
with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard
fi'om this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a
qualNed electridan to make sure the outlet is
properly gmtmded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is
encotmtered, it is yore" personal responsibilit)' and
obligation to have it replaced with a propedy
grotmded 3-prong wall outlet.
The refligerator should al_z_ys be plugged into its
own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage
rating that matches the rating plate.
This provides the best pe_l'imnance and also
prevents overloading house Mfing circuits which
could cause a fire hazard fl'om overheated wires.

USEOFADAPTERPLUGS
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against the
use of an adapter plug.
However; if you must use an adapte_; where local
codes pemfit, a temporary connection may be made
to a properly grotmded 2-prong wall outlet by use
of a UI Aisted adapter available at most local
hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned Mth
the larger slot in the _;fll outlet to provide proper
polarity in the connection of the power cord.
When (lisc(mnecting the power cord fl'om the
a(lapte_; always hold the adapter in place with one
hand while pulling the power cord plug with the
other hand. If this is not done, the adapter grotmd
temfinal is ve_' likely to break with repeated use.
If the adapter ground temfinal break% DO NOT USE
the refi_igerator tmtil a proper grotmd has been
established.
