„

 This freezer must be properly installed and located in 

accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is 

used.

„

 Unplug the freezer before cleaning and making repairs. 

NOTE:  Repairs must be performed by a qualified Service 

Professional.

„

 Replace all parts and panels before operating.

„

 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 certified (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.

„

 To prevent suffocation and entrapment hazards to 

children, Remove the fresh food and freezer doors from 

any freezer before disposing of it or discontinuing its 

use.

„

 Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors 

and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

„

 Power to the freezer cannot be disconnected by any 

setting on the control panel, freezer must be unplugged 

to remove power.

„

 Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the 

door handles or the shelves in the freezer. They could 

seriously injure themselves.

 

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.  All 

safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and the word “DANGER”, “WARNING”, or “CAUTION”.  These words are 
defined as:

   

 

  

Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

   

 

  Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

   

 

  Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

   To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, or injury when using your 

freezer follow these basic safety precautions:

CAUTION

WARNING

        Explosion Hazard.  

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from freezer.  Failure to do so can result 
in fire, explosion, or death.

„

 Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water 

when they are cold. Glass shelves and covers may break if 

exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such 

as bumping or dropping.  Tempered glass is designed to 

shatter into many small pieces if it breaks.

„

 Keep fingers out of the “pinch point” areas; clearances 

between the doors and between the doors and cabinet are 

necessarily small. Be careful closing doors when children are 

in the area.

„

 Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed 

completely.

„

 In refrigerators with automatic icemakers, avoid contact 

with the moving parts of the ejector mechanism, or with the 

heating element that releases the cubes. Do not place fingers 

or hands on the automatic ice making mechanism while the 

refrigerator is plugged in.

   To reduce the risk of injury when using your refrigerator, follow these basic 

safety precautions.
