DANGER! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT  
PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE REFRIGERATOR  
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems  
CFC Disposal

Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system  
that used CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are  
believed to harm stratospheric ozone.  
still dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a few  
days.” If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator,  
please follow the instructions below to help prevent  
accidents.  
OpeagIructions  
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make  
sure the CFC refrigerant is removed for proper  
disposal by a qualified servicer. If you intentionally  
release this CFC refrigerant you can be subject to  
fines and imprisonment under provisions of  
environmental legislation.  
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator  
or Freezer:  
Take off the doors.  
Leave the shelves in place so that children may not  
easily climb inside.  
laIructions  
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS  
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend  
against the use of an extension cord.  
However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed (in the United  
States) or a CSA-listed (in Canada), 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding  
type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and 120 volts.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.  
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.  
WARNING!  
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY  
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.  
SafeyIructions  
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with  
a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a  
standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to  
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard  
from this appliance.  
This provides 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.  
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a  
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is  
properly grounded.  
Repair or replace immediately all power 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 end.  
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong outlet, it is your  
personal responsibility and obligation to have it  
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall  
outlet.  
When moving the refrigerator away from the  
wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the  
power cord.  
OpeagIructions  
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its  
own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage  
rating that matches the rating plate.  
USE OF ADAPTER PLUGS  
(Adapter plugs not permitted in Canada)  
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against  
the use of an adapter plug.  
However, if you must use an adapter, where local  
codes permit, a temporary connection may be made  
to a properly grounded 2-prong wall outlet by use  
of a UL-listed adapter available at most local  
hardware stores.  
If the adapter ground terminal breaks, DO NOT  
USE the refrigerator until a proper ground has  
been established.  
laIructions  
Attaching the adapter ground terminal to a wall outlet  
cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the  
cover screw is metal, and not insulated, and the wall  
outlet is grounded through the house wiring. You should  
have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make  
sure the outlet is properly grounded.  
The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with  
the larger slot in the wall outlet to provide proper  
polarity in the connection of the power cord.  
ips  
When disconnecting the power cord from the  
adapter, 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 ground  
terminal is very likely to break with repeated use.

About the ice trays.  
Ice Trays  
To release ice cubes, invert the tray, hold it  
over the storage bucket or bowl and twist  
tray at both ends.  
Trays can be stacked to save storage space.  
OpeagIructions  
For faster ice service when you need it,  
place ice trays on the frozen food storage  
compartment floor.  
For only one or two ice cubes, leave the tray  
right-side up, twist both ends slightly and  
remove the desired number of cubes.  
Wash trays in lukewarm water only. Do not  
wash in an automatic dishwasher.

Food storage suggestions.  
Frozen Food Storage Compartment  
This refrigerator’s frozen food storage  
compartment will make ice and will  
store pre-frozen foods for about two weeks.  
If additional firmness is desired in ice cream:  
rubleshotingT  
T
Set temperature control to colder  
position.  
It will not effectively freeze fresh foods or  
provide long term storage for meats, poultry  
or fish. These products should be used  
within several days.  
Transfer ice cream from original carton  
to a covered, flat-bottomed container.  
For best storage of frozen foods:  
Pre-frozen concentrates and high sugar  
content foods, such as frozen orange juice  
and ice cream will not remain completely  
solid (frozen) and must be used quickly. For  
best results, such items should be placed in  
direct contact with the refrigerated surface  
(where frost forms first).  
Use moisture-proof wrapping material  
and bags or regular freezer containers.  
Commercially-frozen foods are usually  
suitably packaged.

Fresh Food Storage Tips  
Vegetables:  
Cheese:  
Use the vegetable drawer—it has been  
designed to preserve the natural moisture  
and freshness of produce.  
Wrap well with wax paper or aluminum  
foil, or put in a plastic bag.  
Carefully wrap to expel air and help  
prevent mold.  
Covering vegetables with a moist towel  
helps maintain crispness.  
Store prepackaged cheese in its own  
wrapping if you wish.  
OpeagIructions  
As a further aid to freshness, prepackaged  
vegetables can be stored in their original  
wrapping.  
Unfrozen meats, fish and poultry:  
Always remove store wrappings.  
Rewrap in foil, plastic wrap or wax paper  
and refrigerate immediately.
