1) Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this
use and care guide.
2) This refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the
installation instructions before it is used. See grounding instructions in
the installation section.
3) This refrigerator should not be recessed or built-in an enclosed
cabinet. It is designed for freestanding installation only.
4) Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always
grasp the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.
5) 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, the plug or the connector
end.
6) If your old refrigerator is not being used, we recommend that you
remove the doors. This will reduce the possibility of danger to children.
7) After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces in
the freezer compartment, particularly when hands are damp or wet.
Skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
8) Do not refreeze foods, which have been thawed completely. The
United States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin
No. 69 reads: "…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
offcolor 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, discard it. The food may be dangerous to eat."
"…Even partial thawing and re-freezing 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 they
’re
eating quality as you can."
