IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons when using your product, basic safety
precautions should be followed, including the following:
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
•
NEVER unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power
cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull it straight out from
the outlet.
•
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
or at either the plug or connector end.
•
When moving your refrigerator away from the wall,
be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.
•
DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors
and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
•
DO NOT allow children to climb, stand or hang on the
refrigerator doors or shelves in the refrigerator. They could
damage the refrigerator and seriously injure themselves.
•
Keep fingers out of
pinch point
areas; clearances between
the doors and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful
closing doors when children are in the area.
•
Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or making any
repairs.
NOTE:
We strongly recommend that any servicing be
performed by a qualified individual.
•
Before replacing a burned-out light bulb,
unplug
the
refrigerator or turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse
box in order to avoid contact with a live wire filament. (A
burned-out light bulb may break when being replaced.)
NOTE:
Setting either or both controls to the OFF position
does not remove power to the light circuit.
•
This refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance
with the
Attention Installer Instructions
that were taped
to the front of the refrigerator.
•
After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold
surfaces in the freezer compartment when hands are damp
or wet. Skin may adhere to the extremely cold surfaces.
•
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 icemaking mechanism
while the refrigerator is plugged in.
•
DO NOT refreeze frozen foods which have thawed
completely. The United States Department of Agriculture in
Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 says:
…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if
they still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold—below
40°F (4°C).
…Thawed ground meats, poultry or fish that have any off-
odor or off-color 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, get rid of it.
The food may be dangerous to eat.
Even partial thawing and refreezing reduces 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 their quality as you can.
• Do not modify or extend the Power
Cord length.
It will cause electric shock or fire.
