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, CAUTION. These words mean:
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.
SAFETY MESSAGES
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:
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
Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or making any repairs.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing be performed
by a qualified individual.
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. (Aburned-out light bulb may
break when being replaced.)
NOTE Setting: either or both controls to the OFF position does
not remove power to the light circuit.
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in
this use and care guide.
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 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. If the odor or color of
any food is poor or questionable, get rid of it. The food may be
dangerous to eat.”
“Even partial thawing and refreezing reduces the eating 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.”
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
doors and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful when you
open the doors when children are in the area.
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.
The refrigerator-freezer should be so positioned that the supply
plug is accessible for quick disconnection when accident
Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment - they may
break when frozen, causing damage.

happens.

IMPORTANT: Please read carefully.
TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
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.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning,
or removing a light bulb, turn the control (Thermostat,
Refrigerator Control or Freezer Control, depending on the
model) to OFF and then disconnect the refrigerator from
the electrical source. 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 (in the United States), 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.
Use of an extension cord will increase the clearance
needed for the back of the refrigerator.
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.
Ensure proper

LEVELING AND DOOR ALIGNMENT
Leveling
Your refrigerator has two front leveling screws one on
the right and one on the left. If your refrigerator seems
unsteady or you want the doors to close easier, adjust the
Refrigerator’s tilt using the instructions below:
1. Plug the refrigerator’s power cord into a 3-prong
grounded outlet. Move the refrigerator into its final
position.
2. Turn the leveling screw clockwise to raise that side of
the refrigerator or counterclockwise to lower it. It may
take several turns of the leveling screw to adjust the tilt
of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws.
This makes it easier to adjust the screws.
3. Open both doors again and check to make sure that
they close easily. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more
to the rear by turning both leveling screws clockwise. It
may take several more turns, and you should turn both
leveling screws the same amount.
4. Re-adjust if necessary.
5. Replace the base cover.
NOTE: Your new refrigerator is uniquely designed with
two fresh food doors. Either door can be opened or
closed independently of one another. You may have to
exert slight pressure on doors to get them to close
completely.
Door Alignment
If the space between your doors is uneven, follow the
instructions below to align the doors:
1. With one hand, lift up the door you want to raise at
middle hinge.
2. With other hand, use pliers to insert snap ring as
shown.
3. Insert additional snap rings until the doors are aligned.
(Three snap rings are provided with unit.)
REFRIGERATOR INSTALLATION

16
ENSURING PROPER AIR CIRCULATION
In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow
between the refrigerator and freezer sections. As shown in
the illustration below, air enters at top of freezer and
circulates down. From bottom of freezer, air is forced up to
top of refrigerator. Air enters refrigerator through top vent,
then circulates and exists at bottom, where it returns to
freezer.
MULTI-FLOW
Multi-Flow means powerful and effective cooling operation
This is especially noticeable when new food is placed in the
refrigerator compartment.
If water or foreign substances enter the cool air vent while
cleaning, efficiency will be lowered. In addition, if gasket is
damaged, efficiency may be lowered because of escaping
cool air.
Do not block any of cool air vents with food packages. If
the vents are blocked, airflow will be interrupted and
temperature and moisture problems may occur.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections,
sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the
other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate
odors. To prevent odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap
or cover foods tightly. (See the Food Storage Guide section
for details).
DOOR ALARM
With this feature you will listen an alarm when the freezer
or refrigerator door is not closed within 1 minute after it is
opened. These tones repeat every 30 seconds. The alarm
is cancelled when the freezer or the refrigerator is closed
correctly.
USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
SETTING THE CONTROLS
Your refrigerator has two controls that let you regulate
the temperature in the freezer and refrigerator
compartments.
Initially set the REFRIGERATOR CONTROL and the
FREEZER CONTROLat position number “4”.
Leave it at this setting for 24 hours (one day) to
stabilize. Then adjust the temperature compartment
as desired.

Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before
adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put food
into the refrigerator. The mid-settings indicated in the
previous section should be correct for normal household
refrigerator usage. The controls are set correctly when milk
or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.
The refrigerator control functions as the thermostat for the
entire appliance (refrigerator and freezer sections). The
higher the number setting, the longer the compressor will
run to keep the temperature colder. The freezer control
adjusts the cold air flow from the freezer to the refrigerator.
Setting the freezer control to a lower temperature keeps
more cold air in the Freezer compartment to make it colder.
If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or
freezer, start by adjusting the refrigerator first. Wait 24
hours after the refrigerator adjustment to check the freezer
temperature. If it is too warm or too cold, then adjust the
freezer control as well.
Use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide. Always
remember to wait at least 24 hours between adjustments.

FOOD STORAGE GUIDE
Storing Fresh Food
Wrap or store food in the refrigerator in airtight and
moisture-proof material unless otherwise noted. This
prevents food odor and taste transfer throughout the
refrigerator. For dated products, check date code to
ensure freshness.
Butter or margarine
Keep opened butter in a covered dish or closed
compartment. When storing an extra supply, wrap
in freezer packaging and freeze.
Cheese
Store in the original wrapping until you are ready to
use it. Once opened, rewrap tightly in plastic wrap or
aluminum foil.
Milk
Wipe milk cartons. For best storage, place milk on interior
shelf, not on door shelf.
Eggs
Store in original carton on interior shelf, not on door shelf.
Fruit
Wash, let dry, and store in refrigerator in plastic bags or in
the crisper. Do not wash or hull berries until you are ready
to use them. Sort and keep berries in their original
container in a crisper, or store in a loosely closed paper
bag on a refrigerator shelf.
Leafy vegetables
Remove store wrapping and trim or tear off bruised and
discolored areas. Wash in cold water and drain. Place in a
plastic bag or plastic container and store in the crisper.
Vegetables with skins (carrots, peppers)
Place in plastic bags or plastic container and store
in crisper.
Fish
Chef fresh
Store most chef fresh in original wrapping as long as it is
airtight and moisture-proof. Rewrap if necessary.
Leftovers
Cover leftovers with plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Plastic
containers with tight lids can also be used.
Use fresh fish and shellfish the same day purchased.
USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Packaging
Successful freezing depends on correct packaging. When
you close and seal the package, it must not allow air or
moisture in or out. If you do, you could have food odor
and taste transfer throughout the refrigerator and also dry
out frozen food.
Packaging recommendations:
Rigid plastic containers with tight-fitting lids.
Straight-sided canning/freezing jars.
Heavy-duty aluminum foil.
Plastic-coated paper.
Non-permeable plastic wraps.
Specified freezer-grade self-sealing plastic bags.
Follow package or container instructions for proper
freezing methods.
Do not use:
Bread wrappers.
Non-polyethylene plastic containers.
Containers without tight lids.
Wax paper or wax-coated freezer wrap.
Thin, semi-permeable wrap.
Freezing
Your freezer will not quick-freeze any large quantity of
food. Do not put more unfrozen food into the freezer than
will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs of food
per cubic foot of freezer space). Leave enough space in
the freezer for air to circulate around packages. Be careful
to leave enough room at the front so the door can close
tightly.
Storage times will vary according to the quality and type
of food, the type of packaging or wrap used (airtight and
moisture-proof) and the storage temperature. Ice crystals
inside a sealed package are normal. This simply means
that moisture in the food and air inside the package have
condensed, creating ice crystals.
NOTE: Allow hot foods to cool at room temperature for
30 minutes, then package and freeze. Cooling hot foods
before freezing saves energy.
NOTE: Do not store food near the sensor; it may cause
the sensor to malfunction.

WARNING
Suffocation Hazard
When using dry ice, provide adequate ventilation.
Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide (CO )
2. When it
vaporizes, it can displace oxygen, causing dizziness,
light-headedness, unconsciousness and death by
suffocation. Open a window and do not breathe
the vapors.
IMPORTANT: Do not store bottles in the freezer
compartment - they may break when frozen,
causing damage.
STORING FROZEN FOOD
NOTE: For further information about preparing food for
freezing or food storage times, check a freezer guide or a
reliable cookbook.

REFRIGERATOR SHELVES
The shelves in your refrigerator are adjustable to meet
your individual storage needs. These units are all glass
shelves.
Storing similar food items together in your refrigerator and
adjusting the shelves to fit different heights of items will
make finding the exact item you want easier; it will also
reduce the amount of time the refrigerator door is open,
saving energy.
IMPORTANT: Do not clean glass shelves with warm
water when they are cold. Shelves may break if exposed
to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as
bumping. For your protection, glass shelves are made
with tempered glass, which will shatter into small pebble-
sized pieces.
NOTE: Glass shelves are heavy. Use special care when
removing them to avoid dropping them.
Adjusting Shelves
Remove shelves from the shipping position and replace
shelves in the position you want.
To remove a shelf: Tilt up the front of the shelf in the
direction of (1) and lift it in the direction of (2). Pull the
shelf out.
To replace a shelf: Tilt the front of the shelf up and guide
the shelf hooks into the slots at a desired height. Then
lower the front of the shelf so that the hooks drop into the
slots.
REFRIGERATOR SECTION NOTE: Make sure that shelves are level from one side to
the other. Failure to do so may result in the shelf falling or
spilling food.
Sliding Out Shelves (optional on some models)
You can slide some glass shelves in and out of your
refrigerator as follows.
To slide the shelf out, carefully pull front of shelf
toward you.
To slide shelf in, push shelf in until it stops.
To remove a sliding shelf from its metal frame:
1. Pull the shelf out to the stop position.
2. Tilt the front of the shelf up and pull it past the stop
3. Lift up the shelf to remove.
Replace the shelf by reversing the above steps.
Convenience Shelves (optional on some models)
Folding Shelf: You can store taller items such as gallon
containers or bottles by simply sliding the shelf back.
