please follow the instructions below to help prevent
accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator:
Ŷ Take off the fresh food and freezer door.
Ŷ Leave the baskets in place so that children may not
easily climb inside.
PROPER DISPOSAL OF YOUR OLD APPLIANCE
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.
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.
Immediately discontinue use of a damaged supply
cord. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by a qualified service professional with an
authorized service part from the manufacturer.
When moving the refrigerator away from the wall,
be careful not to roll over or damage the power
cord.

CARE AND CLEANING
Care and Cleaning
Cleaning the Outside
The door handles and trim (on some models). Clean with
a cloth dampened with soapy water. Dry with a soft cloth.
Keep the outside clean. Wipe with a clean cloth lightly
dampened with mild liquid dish detergent. Dry and polish
with a clean, soft cloth.
Do not wipe the refrigerator with a soiled dish cloth or
wet towel. These may leave a residue that can erode
the paint. Do not use scouring pads, powdered cleaners,
bleach or cleaners containing either bleach or ammonia
because these products can scratch and weaken the
paint nish.
The stainless steel doors and door handles (on some
models) can be cleaned with a commercially available
stainless steel cleaner. Cleaners with oxalic acid such as
Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser™ will remove surface
rust, tarnish and small blemishes. Use only a liquid
cleanser free of grit and rub in the direction of the brush
lines with a damp soft sponge. Do not use appliance wax
or polish on the stainless steel.
Cleaning the Inside
To help prevent odors, leave an open box of baking
soda in the fresh food and freezer compartments.
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning.
If this is not practical, wring excess moisture out of
sponge or cloth when cleaning around switches, lights or
controls.
Use warm water and baking soda solution—about a
tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda to a quart (1 liter) of
water. This both cleans and neutralizes odors. Rinse and
wipe dry.
After cleaning the door gaskets, apply a thin layer of
petroleum jelly to the door gaskets at the hinge side.
This helps keep the gaskets from sticking and bending
out of shape.
CAUTION 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.
Do not wash any plastic refrigerator parts in the
dishwasher.
Cleaning the Inside
Be careful when moving the refrigerator away from
the wall. All types of oor coverings can be damaged,
particularly cushioned coverings and those with
embossed surfaces.
Pull the refrigerator straight out and return it to position
by pushing it straight in. Moving the refrigerator in a side
direction, or leaning the unit to the corner to pull or push,
may result in damage to the oor covering or refrigerator.
When pushing the refrigerator back, make sure you don’t
roll over the power cord or ice maker supply line (on
some models).
Adjust leveling legs and make sure the unit is leveled.
Light
This refrigerator has LED lighting. Call service If the light
is broken or goes out.

829-6283
Preparing for Vacation
For long vacations or absences, remove food and unplug
the refrigerator. Unplug the refrigerator. This refrigerator
will remember the current setting when you plug it in
again. Clean the interior with a baking soda solution
of one tablespoon (15 ml) of baking soda to one quart
(1 liter) of water. Leave the doors open.
If an Icemaker has been Installed it must be turned o;
move the switch to the OFF position on the power switch
model. Shut o the water supply to the refrigerator.
If the temperature can drop below freezing, have a
qualied servicer drain the water supply system (on
some models) to prevent serious property damage due to
ooding.
Preparing to Move
Secure all loose items, such as shelves and drawers, by
taping them securely in place to prevent damage.
To prevent the doors from opening while moving, secure
them to the case with tape. Be sure the refrigerator stays
in an upright position during moving.

Normal Operating Sounds
Newer refrigerators sound dierent from older refrigerators. Modern refrigerators have more features and use newer
technology.
Do you hear what I hear? These sounds are normal.
■ The new high
eciency compressor
may run faster and
longer than your old
refrigerator and you may hear a high-pitched hum or
pulsating sound while it is operating.
■ You may hear a whooshing sound when the doors
close. This is due to pressure equalizing within the
refrigerator.
WHIR! ■ You may hear the fans spinning at
high speeds.
This happens when the refrigerator is
rst plugged in, when the doors are
opened frequently or when a large
amount of food is added to the
refrigerator or freezer compartments.
The fans are helping to maintain the
correct temperatures.
CLICKS, POPS,
CRACKS and CHIRPS
■ You may hear cracking or popping sounds when the
refrigerator is rst plugged in. This happens as the
refrigerator cools to the correct temperature.
■ The compressor may cause a clicking or chirping
sound when attempting to restart (this could take up to
5 minutes).
■ Expansion and contraction of cooling coils during and
after defrost can cause a cracking or popping sound.
■ On models with an ice maker, after an ice making
cycle, you may hear the ice cubes dropping into the ice
bucket.
WATER SOUNDS
■ The ow of refrigerant through the freezer cooling coils
may make a gurgling noise like boiling water.
■ Water dropping on the defrost heater can cause a
sizzling, popping or buzzing sound during the defrost
cycle.
■ A water dripping noise may occur during the defrost
cycle as ice melts from the evaporator and ows into
the drain pan.
■ Closing the door may cause a gurgling sound due to
pressure equalization.
