Electrical Requirement
•  Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet) 
with proper grounding to power the refrigerator. 
•  Avoid the use of three prong adapters or cutting off the third 
grounding prong in order to accommodate a two prong outlet. This is 
a dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the 
refrigerator and may result in shock hazard.
•  Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety 
hazards under certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension 
cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding 
plug and a 3-slot outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating 
of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the electrical 
rating of the appliance.
•  Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated 
or heated, e.g. garage, etc. Your refrigerator was not designed to 
operate in temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit. 
•  Select a suitable location for the refrigerator on a hard even surface 
away from direct sunlight or heat source, e.g. radiators, baseboard 
heaters, cooking appliances, etc. Any floor unevenness should be 
corrected with the leveling legs located on the front bottom corners of 
the refrigerator.
