WARNING-Men using this
appliance, always exercise basic
safety 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 below 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
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 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.

Once you have removed the ice
cube storage container from your
refrigerator, do not place fmgers
or
hands on the automatic
icemaking mechanism while the
refrigerator
is
plugged
in.
This
will
help protect you from possible
injury.
It will also prevent interference with
the moving parts of the ejector
mechanism, or with the heating
element that releases the cubes.
Don't
refreeze
fmzen 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.
".
.
.Thawed 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 rehing
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 can?
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: 'Ibrning control to OFF
position does not remove power
to the light circuit.
Do
not operate your refrigerator
in
the presence of explosive fumes.
