BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

This guide contains many important safety messages. Always read and obey all

safety messages.

,_ This is the safety alert symbol. It alerts you to safety messages that inform you of hazards that can kill

or hurt you or others or cause damage to the product. All safety messages will be preceded by the safety

alert symbol and the hazard signal word DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION. These words mean:

DANGER

WARNING

CAUTION

You might be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may

result in minor or moderate injury, or product damage.

All safety messages will identify the hazard, 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 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: Service should be performed by a qualified

technician.

• 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: Some models have LED interior lighting and

service should be performed by a qualified

technician.

NOTE: Setting either or both controls to the OFF

position does not remove power to the light circuit.

• When you are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to

the electrical source and reset the control

(Thermostat Refrigerator Control, or Freezer

Control, or Freezer Control, depending on the

model) to the desired setting.

• This refrigerator must be properly installed in

accordance with the 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 modify or extend the power cord length.

It will cause electric shock or fire.

IMPORIANISAFELYINFORMAIION

BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (CONT.)

• DO not use drier to dry the inside, nor light a candle

to remove odor.

• Install in places away from the fire such as the place

where flammable gas is leaked.

• This appliance is not intended for use by persons

(including children) with reduced physical, sensory

or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and

knowledge, unless they have been given

supervision or instruction concerning use of the

appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they

do not play with the appliance.

• 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. Ifthe odor or color of any

food is poor or questionable, dispose of it. The

food may be dangerous to eat.

Even partial thawing and refreezing reduces the

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.

Risk of Child Entrapment

Discarded or abandoned refrigerators are

dangerous, even if they will sit for just a few

days. If you are disposing 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.

• Do not leave the shelves

in place, as children may

climb inside.

CFC DISPOSAL

Your old refrigerator may have a cooling system

that used CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are

believed to harm stratospheric ozone.

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.

IMPORIANTSAFELYINFORMATION

HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

IMPORTANT: Please read carefully.

&WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

For personal safety, this appliance must be

properly grounded. Have the wall outlet and

the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to

make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD

The refrigerator should always be plugged into

its own individual properly grounded electrical

outlet rated for 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only, and

fused at 20 amperes. This provides the

best performance and also prevents overloading

house wiring circuits which could cause a fire

hazard from overheated wires. It is

recommended that a separate circuit serving

only this appliance be provided.

Use a receptacle which cannot be turned off with

a switch or pull chain. Do not use an extension

cord. Where a standard two-prong wall outlet is

encountered, it is your personal responsibility

and obligation to have it replaced with a properly

grounded three-prong wall outlet.

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or

remove the third (ground) prong from the

power cord.

Do not use an adapter plug.

NOTE: Some models have LED interior lighting and

service should be performed by a qualified technician.

When you are finished, reconnect the refrigerator to

the electrical source and reset the control

(Thermostat, Refrigerator Control, or Freezer Control,

depending on the model) to the desired setting.

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 still elect to use an extension

cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed

(USA), 3-wire grounding-type appliance

extension cord having a grounding-type plug

and outlet and that the electrical rating of the

cord be 20 amperes (minimum) and 120 volts.

Use of an extension cord will increase the

clearance needed for the back of the

refrigerator.

CONNSCTING THB WATER SUPPLY

AWARNING

Connect to safe drinking water supply

only.

• The water pressure must be between 20 and

120 psi (140 and 830 kPa ) on models without

a water filter and between 40 and 120 psi

(280 and 830 kPa) on models with a water filter.

• If water pressure does not reach 20 psi

(140 kPa) or falls below, it is necessary to

purchase a separate pressure pump for normal

automatic icemaker and water dispensing operation.

• It is recommended that the total length of the water

feed tube does not exceed 26 ft. (8 m).

• Install the water supply line where it will not be

affected by heat.

• If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is

connected to your cold water supply, This water line

installation is not warranted by the refrigerator or

icemaker manufacturer. Follow next instructions

carefully to minimize the risk of expensive water

damage.

• If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is

connected to your cold water supply, the water

pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs

to be a minimum of 40 and 60 psi (280 and

420 kPa), less than 2.0-3.0sec to fill a cup of

7oz capacity).

If the water pressure from the reverse osmosis

system is less than 20 psi (140 kPa, more than

4.0sec to fill a cup of 7oz (200cc) capacity):

• Check to see whether the sediment filter in the

reverse osmosis system is blocked. Replace the

filter if necessary.

• Allow the storage tank on the reverse osmosis

system to refill after heavy usage.

• If the issue about water pressure from reverse

osmosis remains, call a licensed, qualified plumber.

IMPORTANT: Read all directions thoroughly before

you begin.

• If operating the refrigerator before installing the

water connection, turn the icemaker to the OFF

position to prevent operation without water.

• All installations must be in accordance with local

plumbing code requirements.

• Use copper tubing and check for leaks.

• Install tubing only in areas where temperatures will

remain above freezing.

• It may take up to 24 hours for the icemaker to begin

producing ice.

Tools Required

• standard screwdriver

• 7/16-in. and 1/2-in. open-end wrenches or two

adjustable wrenches

• 1/4-in. nut driver

• 1/4-in. drill bit

• Hand drill or electric drill (properly grounded)

NOTE: Refrigerator dealers offer a kit with a 1/4-in.

saddle-type shutoff valve, a union, and copper tubing.

Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve

complies with local plumbing codes.

Do not use a piercing=type or 3/16=in. saddle valve

which reduces water flow and clogs more easily.

NOTE: The Commonwealth of Massachusetts

Plumbing Code 248CMR shall be adhered to.

Saddle valves are illegal and use is not permitted in

Massachusetts. Consult with your licensed plumber.

Cold Water Supply

• The icemaker water valve contains a flow washer

which is used as a water pressure regulator.

• The icemaker needs to be connected to a cold water

line with water pressure between 20 and 120 psi

(140 and 830 kPa) on models without a water filter

and between 40 and 120 psi (280 and 830 kPa) on

models with a water filter.
