IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
■
■This refrigerator must be properly installed
and located in accordance with the Installation
Instructions before it is used.
■
■Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang
on the shelves in the refrigerator. They could
damage the refrigerator and seriously injure
themselves.
■
■Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer
compartment when hands are damp or wet. Skin
may stick to these extremely cold surfaces.
■
■Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
■
■In refrigerators with automatic icemakers,
avoid contact with the moving parts of the
ejector mechanism, or with the heating element
located on the bottom of the icemaker. Do not
place fingers or hands on the automatic
icemaking mechanism while the refrigerator
is plugged in.
■
■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.
■
■Set the master power switch to the O (off) position
before cleaning or making repairs.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing be
performed by a qualified individual.
■
■Do not refreeze frozen foods that have
thawed completely.

PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE REFRIGERATOR
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are
still dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a 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.
■Leave the shelves in place so that children may
not easily climb inside.
Refrigerants
All refrigeration products contain refrigerants,
which under federal law must be removed prior
to product disposal. If you are getting rid of an
old refrigeration product, check with the
company handling the disposal about what
to do.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. For
personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
with a 3-prong (grounding) plug, which mates
with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet
to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard
from this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is
properly grounded.
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong outlet, it is your
personal responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall
outlet.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its
own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage
rating that matches the rating plate.
This provides the best performance and also
prevents overloading house wiring circuits, which
could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the
power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight
out from the outlet.
Repair or replace immediately all power 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 end.
When moving the refrigerator, be careful not to roll
over or damage the power cord.
DONOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUG OR EXTENSION CORD
(Adapter plugs not permitted in Canada)
Do not use an adapter plug to connect the refrigerator to a 2-prong outlet.
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

About the temperature controls. ElectroluxUSA.com
The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 37°F for the
refrigerator compartment and 0°F for the freezer compartment. Allow
24 hours for the temperature to stabilize to the preset recommended
settings.
The actual temperature may vary slightly from the set temperature
based on usage and operating environment.
NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering the
temperature controls. If this film was not removed during installation,
remove it now.
The Performance Air-Flow System is designed to
maximize temperature control in the refrigerator
and freezer compartments. This unique special
feature consists of the Air Tower along the back
wall of the refrigerator and the freezer. Placing food
in front of the louvers on these components will not
affect performance.
Performance Air Flow System
To change the temperature, press and release the
up or down arrow button. To change the
temperature, tap either the up arrow for warmer
temperatures or the down arrow for colder
temperatures until the desired temperature is
displayed. Refrigerator temperatures can be
adjusted between 34 °F and 46°F and the freezer
temperatures can be adjusted between -6 °F and +
6°F.
Once the desired temperature has been set,
the temperature display will clear after 60 seconds.
To display the temperature, the Disp Temp button
may be tapped.
Several adjustments may be required. Each time you
adjust controls, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to
reach the temperature you have set.
