_This is the safety alert symbol, This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others, All safety
_nessages 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
refrigerator follow these basic safety precautions:
This refrigerator must be properly installed and located in
accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is
used,
Unplug the refrigerator 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 CSAcertified (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
refrigerator 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 refrigerator cannot be disconnected by
any setting on the control panel, refrigerator must be
unplugged to remove power,
Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the door
handles or the shelves in the refrigerator, They could
seriously injure themselves,
, In refrigerators with automatic ice makers, 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,
, 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 touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment
when hands are damp or wet,, skin may stick to these
extremely cold surfaces,
, Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed completely,

Failure to do so can
_1_/_ Tip Over Hazard.
Built-in style models (model PYE, CYE, and PWE) are top heavy, especially with any doors open. These
models must be secured with the anti-tip floor bracket to prevent tipping forward, which could result
in death or serious injury. Read and follow the entire installation instructions for installing the anti-tip
floor bracket packed with your refrigerator.
CONNECTING ELECTRICITY
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet
Do not remove the ground prong
IDo not use an adapter
lFailure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
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,
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is
your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced
with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet, Do not use an
adapter,
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own
individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that
matches the rating plate,
A 115 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded
electrical supply is required, 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 away from the wall, be careful
not to roll over or damage the power cord,

HOT WATER DISPENSER
A Scalding Hazard.
The hot water dispenser is capable of heating water to a temperature of approximately 185°F (85°C).
Water temperatures above 125°F (52°C) can cause severe burns or death from scalding. Children, the
disabled, and the elderly are at highest risk of being scalded.
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner's Manual, To reduce the risk of severe burns,
scald injuries, or death when using your hot water dispenser, the instructions below must be followed:
, The water coming from the dispenser is very hot, Use
extreme caution when dispensing and drinking water, Allow
water to cool to a drinkable temperature before drinking,
, When dispensing water below 125°F, always test the
temperature of the water before drinking,
, When dispensing hot water, the container can become
very hot, Use a temperature insulating container, such
as ceramic or Styrofoam, Using container materials such
as paper or plastic may result in a burn while holding the
cup, Do not use glass containers, as thermal shock can
cause the container to break and may result in scalding or
lacerations,
, Do not permit children to use the hot water dispenser,
, The hot water dispensing knob requires both twist and
push motions in order to reduce the risk of hot water being
dispensed unintentionally or by small children, Do not
tamper with or modify the hot water dispensing knob,
, Always follow the formula manufacturer's instructions for
preparation of baby formula,
, Hold your cup or container close to the dispensing point to
minimize splashing of hot water that could contact your
hand, Do not dispense hot water into a cup resting on the
dispenser tray, as this will increase water splash,
, Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality,
, The hot water dispenser is designed to only dispense water,
Do not attempt to heat or dispense anything other than
water, Do not attempt to disassemble or clean the tank,
, A newly installed water filter cartridge will cause water to
spurt from the dispenser, Run 2 gallons of water through
the cold water dispenser (about 5 minutes) to remove air
from the system, Until this air is removed from the system
through the cold water dispenser, DO NOT use the hot water
dispenser as it may result in spurting of hot water and lead
to hot water scalding,
, The hot water dispensing tank is a non-pressurized tank,
with a vent on the tank and a dispenser tube outlet, Do
not modify the system, close or block the dispense tube, or
connect any other type of device to the tank or dispense
tube, Doing so may lead to rupture of the tank and hot
water scalding,
PROPER DISPOSAL OF YOUR OLD REFRIGERATOR
Suffocation and child entrapment hazard.
Remove fresh-food and freezer doors from the refrigerator, prior to disposal. Failure to do so can result
in child entrapment which can lead to death or brain damage.

Important Facts About Your Dispenser
_ Do not add ice from trays or bags to the door ice maker
bucket. It may not crush or dispense.
_ Avoid overfilling glass with ice and use of narrow glasses.
Backed-up ice can jam the chute or cause the door in the
chute to freeze shut. If ice is blocking the chute remove the ice
bucket, poke it through with a wooden spoon.
_ Beverages and foods should not be quick-chilled in the
door ice maker bin. Cans, bottles or food packages in the
storage drawer may cause the ice maker or auger tojam.
_ To keep dispensed ice from missing the glass, put the glass
close to, but not touching, the dispenser opening.
_ Some crushed ice may be dispensed even though you
selected CUBED ICE.This happens occasionally when a few
cubes accidentally get directed to the crusher.
_ After crushed ice is dispensed, some water may drip from the
chute.
_ Sometimes a small mound of snow will form on the door in the
ice chute. This condition is normal and usually occurs when you
have dispensed crushed ice repeatedly. The snow will eventually
evaporate.

About the automatic ice maker.
A newly installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice.
Automatic Ice maker (on some models)
lcemaker The ice maker will produce seven cubes
per cycle approximately 100-130 cubes
in a 24-hour period, depending on freezer
compartment temperature, room temperature,
number of door openings and other use
conditions.
FeelerArm The ice maker will fill with water when it cools to
15°F (-10°C). A newly installed refrigerator may
take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes.
Ifthe refrigerator is operated before the water
line connection is made to the unit or if the
water supply to an operating refrigerator is
turned off, make sure that the ice maker is
turned off. Once the water has been connected
to the refrigerator, the ice maker may be turned
on. See the table below for details.
You may hear a buzzing sound each time the
ice maker fills with water.
Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow
the water line to clear.
Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the
feeler arm.
When the bin fills to the level of the feeler
arm, the ice maker will stop producing ice. It is
normal for several cubes to bejoined together.
If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will
become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
NOTE: In homes with lower-than-average water
