REFRIGERATOR CARE
CLEANING
Clean both the freezer and refrigerator compartments
about once a month to avoid buildup of odors. Wipe up spills
immediately.
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion or fire.
IMPORTANT:
• Do not use harsh chemicals, ammonia, chlorine bleach,
concentrated detergent, solvents, abrasives or metal
scouring pads to clean your refrigerator inside or out.
They can damage and/or discolor the refrigerator nish.
• Do not use warm water to clean glass shelves while they
are still cold. Glass may break when exposed to sudden
temperature changes or impact.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Using a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent
dissolved in warm water, wash removable parts and the
interior surfaces. Rinse well and dry thoroughly.
3. Clean the exterior surfaces.
Painted metal: Wash painted metal exteriors with a
clean, soft cloth or sponge and a mild detergent in warm
water. Rinse surfaces with clean, warm water and dry
immediately to avoid water spots.
Stainless steel: Stainless steel is corrosion resistant
and not corrosion-proof. To help avoid corrosion of
your stainless steel, wash stainless steel surfaces with a
clean, soft cloth or sponge and a mild detergent in warm
water. Rinse surfaces with clean, warm water and dry
immediately to avoid water spots.
NOTE: When cleaning stainless steel, always wipe in the
direction of the grain to avoid cross-grain scratching.
4. Clean the condenser at least once a year. Using a vacuum
cleaner, remove the dust that has accumulated on the
condenser.
NOTE: The condenser is located at the back of the
refrigerator.
5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
DEFROSTING
The refrigerator and freezer compartments defrost
automatically. A small amount of frost buildup on the Fresh
Food Cold Wall is normal. If the amount of frost becomes
excessive, you may need to raise the temperature by
adjusting the Temperature Control dial to a lower number
(less cold) setting. See “Control.”
The defrost water goes through a collection channel and into
the drain tube which is attached to the drain tray at the back
of the refrigerator. To avoid water spilling onto the oor, it is
important to make sure the end of the drain tube is inserted
fully into the drain tray.
If the defrost water does not drain from the collection
channel, check that the drain tube is clear. The drain tube
can be cleared with a pipe cleaner or by pushing the plastic
plunger (provided) down the drain tube.
During defrosting, water droplets may form at the back of
the refrigerator compartment where a concealed evaporator
is located. Some moisture will remain on the Fresh Food Cold
Wall (rear wall) and refreeze when defrosting is completed.
Do not use pointed or sharp-edged objects such as knives or
forks to remove the frozen droplets.

MISE AU REBUT DE VOTRE ANCIEN
RÉFRIGÉRATEUR
Risque de suffoquer
Ôter les portes de votre ancien réfrigérateur.
Le non-respect de cette instruction peut causer un
décès ou des lésions cérébrales.
AVERTISSEMENT
IMPORTANT : Le problème des enfants pouvant se retrouver
coincés et suoquer n’est pas un problème du passé. Un
réfrigérateur jeté ou abandonné est encore dangereux, même
s’il est laissé abandonné pendant “quelques jours seulement”.
Si vous vous débarrassez de votre ancien réfrigérateur,
veuillez suivre les instructions suivantes pour aider à éviter les
accidents.
Avant de jeter votre ancien réfrigérateur ou congélateur :
• Ôter les portes.
• Laisser les tablettes en place de sorte que les enfants ne
puissent pas y pénétrer facilement.

EXIGENCES D’INSTALLATION
EXIGENCES D’EMPLACEMENT
Risque d'explosion
Garder les matériaux et les vapeurs inflammables, telles
que l'essence, loin de l’appareil.
Le non-respect de cette instruction peut causer un
décès, une explosion ou un incendie.
AVERTISSEMENT
IMPORTANT : Ce réfrigérateur est conçu pour un usage
domestique, à l’intérieur uniquement. Le réfrigérateur ne
doit pas être encastré ou installé dans un placard fermé.
Il est conçu uniquement pour être utilisé d’une manière
autoportante.
Pour obtenir une aération appropriée pour votre
réfrigérateur, laisser au moins ¼" (0.64 cm) d’espace de
chaque côté du réfrigérateur et 4" (10 cm) d’espace derrière
le réfrigérateur. La zone au-dessus du réfrigérateur doit
être ouvert. En cas d’installation du réfrigérateur près
d’une cloison xe, laisser un minimum de 4" (10 cm) pour
permettre à la porte de s’ouvrir sans obstruction.
4" (10,2 cm)
¼" (0,64 cm)
REMARQUE : Ce réfrigérateur est conçu pour être utilisé
dans un endroit où la température est comprise entre
un minimum de 55°F (13°C) et un maximum de 110°F
(43°C). La plage de température ambiante idéale pour une
performance optimale est comprise entre 60°F (16°C) et
90°F (32°C). Respecter cette plage de température permet
aussi de réduire la consommation d’électricité et d’optimiser
l’ecacité du refroidissement. Il est recommandé de ne
pas installer le réfrigérateur près d’une quelconque source
de chaleur, telle qu’un four ou un radiateur, ou directement
exposé aux rayons du soleil.
SPÉCIFICATIONS ÉLECTRIQUES
Risque de choc électrique
Brancher sur une prise à 3 alvéoles reliée à la terre.
Ne pas enlever la broche de liaison à la terre du cordon
d'alimentation.
Ne pas utiliser un adaptateur.
Ne pas utiliser un câble de rallonge.
Le non-respect de cette instruction pourrait causer un
décès, un incendie ou un choc électrique.
AVERTISSEMENT
Avant de déplacer le réfrigérateur à son emplacement nal,
il est important de vous assurer d’avoir le raccordement
électrique approprié.
Méthode recommandée de liaison à la terre
Chaque appareil doit être alimenté par un circuit 115 volts (CA
seulement, 60 Hz) relié à la terre et protégé par un fusible de
capacité 15 A ou 20 A. Il est recommandé d’utiliser un circuit
distinct pour alimenter le réfrigérateur uniquement. Utiliser
une prise de courant dont l’alimentation ne peut pas être
interrompue par un interrupteur. Ne pas utiliser de rallonge.
REMARQUE : Avant d’exécuter tout type d’installation,
nettoyage ou remplacement d’une ampoule d’éclairage,
déconnecter le réfrigérateur de la source de courant
électrique. Une fois l’opération terminée, reconnecter le
réfrigérateur à la source de courant électrique et remettre
les commandes de température au réglage désiré.
PAROI RÉFRIGÉRANTE POUR ALIMENTS FRAIS (PAROI ARRIÈRE DU
COMPARTIMENT DE RÉFRIGÉRATION)
Votre nouveau réfrigérateur est équipé de la technologie de
paroi réfrigérante pour un meilleur entreposage des aliments
périssables.
La paroi arrière du réfrigérateur permet une meilleure
condensation de l’humidité, semblable à ce que l’on observe
au rayon fruits et légumes dans un supermarché.
L’excès d’humidité s’égoutte dans le système de vidange au
bas de la paroi.

• Jeter/recycler tous les matériaux d’emballage.
Lors du déplacement de votre réfrigérateur :
Votre réfrigérateur est lourd. Lors du déplacement de
votre réfrigérateur pour le nettoyage ou un entretien ou
réparation, veiller à recouvrir le plancher avec du carton
ou un panneau de bre dur pour éviter qu’il ne subisse
tout dommage. Toujours tirer le réfrigérateur tout droit
lors du déplacement. Ne pas incliner le réfrigérateur d’un
côté ou de l’autre ni le « faire marcher » en essayant de le
déplacer car le sol pourrait être endommagé.
NETTOYAGE AVANT UTILISATION
Après avoir enlevé tous les matériaux d’emballage, nettoyer
l’intérieur du réfrigérateur avant de l’utiliser. Voir les
instructions de nettoyage dans “Entretien du réfrigérateur”.
Informations importantes à propos des tablettes et
des couvercles en verre :
Ne pas nettoyer les tablettes ou les couvercles de verre
avec de l’eau tiède lorsqu’ils sont froids. Les tablettes
et couvercles peuvent se briser s’ils sont exposés à des
changements de températures ou impacts soudains,
tels qu’une chute. Le verre trempé est conçu pour se
briser en de multiples petits morceaux de la taille de
gravillons. Ceci est normal. Les tablettes en verre et les
couvercles sont lourds. Les retirer à deux mains pour
éviter de les faire tomber.
INVERSION DU SENS D’OUVERTURE
DE LA PORTE (FACULTATIF)
Si l’on souhaite inverser le sens d’ouverture de la porte
de manière à ce que les portes s’ouvrent du côté opposé,
consulter les instructions suivantes.
IMPORTANT : Les illustrations mentionnées dans les
instructions suivantes sont incluses plus loin dans cette
section. Voir l’illustration “Inversion du sens d’ouverture de
la porte”.
