Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey
all safety messages.
DANGER
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 either the word
“DANGER” or “WARNING.”
These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t immedi-
ately follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t
follow instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell
you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, or injury to persons when using the refrigerator,
follow basic precautions, including the following:
WARNING:
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Disconnect power before servicing.
Replace all parts and panels before operating.
Remove doors from your old refrigerator.
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline,
away from refrigerator.
Use two or more people to move and install refrigerator.
Disconnect power before installing ice maker
(on ice maker
kit ready models only).
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or
fire.
WARNING
Electric Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.

WARNING
Suffocation Hazard
Remove doors from old refrigerator. Failure to do
so can result in death or brain damage.

few days.”
If you are getting rid of your
old refrigerator, please follow
the instructions below to help
prevent accidents.
Before you throw away your
old refrigerator or freezer:
Take off the doors.•

Temperatures are preset at 37°F (3°C) in the fresh food
compartment and 0°F (-18°C) in the freezer compartment. The
display will show the average compartment temperatures, based
on several measurement points within the compartment.
Note:
Temperatures displayed may vary from set point due to door
openings or during defrost. Thermometers placed in the refrig-
erator may record a temperature slightly above or below the
displayed temperature. This is normal as the displayed temper-
ature is an average.

Replacing the Water Filter
IMPORTANT:
Air trapped in system may cause water and
cartridge to eject. Always dispense water for two minutes
before removing the filter for any reason. Use caution when
removing.
1. Turn filter counterclockwise until it releases from filter head.
2. Drain water from filter into sink, and dispose of filter in normal
household trash.
3. Wipe up excess water in filter cover and continue with Initial
Installation, steps 2 through 4.
The filter should be changed at least every 12 months.
Important: Condition of water and amount used determines life
span of water filter cartridge. If water use is high, or if water is of
poorquality,replacementmayneedtotakeplacemoreoften.
To replacement filter cartridges or for service, contact your local
dealerorDacorCustomerService,1-800-793-0093.(U.S.A.and

• Thefreshfoodcompartmentofarefrigeratorshouldbekept
between 34°-40°F (1°-4°C) with an optimum temperature of
37°F (3°C). To check the temperature, place an appliance
thermometer in a glass of water and place in the center of the
refrigerator. Check after 24 hours. If the temperature is above
40°F (4°C) adjust the controls as explained on page 2.
• Avoidovercrowdingtherefrigeratorshelves.Thisreduces

Packaging Foods for Freezing
• Tominimizedehydrationandqualitydeteriorationuse
aluminum foil, freezer wrap, freezer bags or airtight
containers. Force as much air out of the packages as
possible and be sure they are tightly sealed. Trapped air
can cause the food to dry out, change color and develop an
off-flavor (freezer burn).

Important information to know about glass shelves and
covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
theyarecold.Shelvesandcoversmaybreakifexposedto
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
For your protection, tempered glass is designed to shatter into
many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves
and covers are heavy. Use special care when removing them to
avoid impact from dropping.
1. Remove all food and turn the refrigerator OFF.
2. Disconnect power to the refrigerator.
3. Clean the walls, floor, ceiling of cabinet interior, drawers,
shelves and gaskets according to the instructions on page
12.
4. Dilute mild detergent and brush solution into crevices using a
plastic bristle brush. Let stand for 5 minutes. Rinse surfaces
with warm water. Dry surfaces with a soft, clean cloth.
5. Wash and dry all bottles, containers and jars. Discard spoiled
or expired items.
6. Wrap or store odor-causing foods in tightly sealed containers
to prevent recurring odors.
7. Reconnect power to refrigerator and return food to refrig-
erator.
8. Allow the refrigerator to cool.
9. After 24 hours, check if odor has been eliminated.
If odor is still present:
1. Remove drawers and place on top shelf of refrigerator.
2. Pack refrigerator and freezer sections including doors –
with crumpled sheets of black and white newspaper.
3. Placecharcoalbriquettesrandomlyoncrumplednewspaper
in both freezer and refrigerator compartments.
4. Close doors and let stand 24 to 48 hours.
