IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

HOW TO CONNECT EI ECTRI(;ITY

Do not, raider any circumstaalces, cut or removethe third (ground) prong from the power cord.

For personal safety, this appliance must beproperly grounded.

The p_wer cord of this appliance is equippedwith a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates

with a standard 3-prong (grotmding) wall outletto minimize the possibili_' ot electric shock

ha/m'd fl'om this appliance.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked bv

a qualified electrician to make stue the outletis properly gmtmded.

_]_ere a standard 2-prong wall outlet isencotmtered, it is yore" personal responsibili_'

and obligation to have it replaced with aproperly grotmded 3-prong wall outlet.

The refrigerator should alwa):s be plugged intoits own individual electrical outlet which has

a voltage rating that matches the rating plate.

This provides the best perfinmance and also

prevents overloading house wiring drcuits which

could cause a fire hazard fl'om overheated wires.

Never tmplug yore" refl_igerator by pulling on the

power cord. Mwa):s grip plug firefly and pull

straight out fl'om the outlet.

Repair or replace immediatelv ;all p{_wer cords

that have become fl'ayed or otherwise damaged.

Do not use a cord that sho_vs cracks or abrasion

damage along its length or at either end.

_]_en moving the refl_igerator away fl'om the

wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the

power cord.

USE OF EXT NSION CORDS

Because of potential safety hazax&s under certain

conditions, we strongly recommend against theuse of an extension cord.

SAVE

However; if you m ust use an extension cord, it is

absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed, B-wire

grotmding _'pe appliance extension cord having

a grounding D'pe plug and outlet and that the

electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes

(minimum) and 120 w_lts,

jacts about

the dispenso

• Do not add ice fl'om trax:s or bags to

the storage drawer. It may not c_ush or

dispense well.

• Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use of

narrow glasses. Backed-up ice can jam thechute or cause the door in the chute to

ti'eeze shut. If ice is blocking the chute,

poke it through with a wooden spoon.

• Beverages and foods should not be

quick-chilled in the ice storage drawe_:

Cans, bottles or ti)od packages in the

storage drawer may cause the icemaker

or auger to jam.

• To kee I) dispensed ice fl'om missing the glass,

put the glass close to, but not touching, the

dispenser opening.

• SoIne cIushed ice Inav be dispensed even

though you selected CUBED ICE. This

hal)pens occasionally when a few cubes

accidentally get directed to the c_ usher.

• After crashed ice is dispensed, some water

may drip fl'om the chute.

• Sometimes a small motmd of snow will ti)rm

on the door in the ice chute. This condition

is normal and usually occurs when you have

dispensed crashed ice repeatedly. The snow

will eventually evaporate. 19
