IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
5
This guide ontains many important safety messages. Always read and obey all safety messages.
BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to redu e the han e of injury, and tell you what an happen if
the instru tions are not followed.
This is the safety alert symbol. It alerts you to safety messages that inform you
of hazards that an kill or hurt you or others, or ause damage to the produ t.
All safety messages will be pre eded by the safety alert symbol and the hazard
signal word DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION. These words mean:
You will be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instru tions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instru tions.
Indi ates an imminently hazardous situation whi h, if not avoided,
may result in minor or moderate injury, or produ t damage only.
DANGER
WARNING
CAUTION
DANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Child entrapment and suffo ation 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
instru tions at right to help prevent a idents.
BEFORE YOU THROW AWAY
YOUR OLD REFRIGERATOR
OR FREEZER
• Take off the doors.
•Leave the shelves in pla e so that
hildren may not easily limb inside.
Your old refrigerator may have a ooling system that used
CFCs ( hlorofluoro arbons). CFCs are believed to harm
stratospheri ozone.
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator, make sure
the CFC refrigerant is removed for proper disposal by a
qualified servi er. If you intentionally release this CFC
refrigerant, you an be subje t to fines and imprisonment
under provisions of environmental legislation.
CFC DISPOSAL

GROUNDING REQUIREMENTS
6
IMPORTANT: Please read arefully.
TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own
individual properly grounded ele tri al outlet rated for
115 Volts, 60 Hz, AC only, and fused at 15 or 20 amperes.
This provides the best performan e and also prevents
overloading house wiring ir uits whi h ould ause a fire
hazard from overheated wires. It is re ommended that a
separate ir uit serving only this applian e be provided.
Use a re epta le whi h annot be turned off with a swit h
or pull hain. Do not use an extension ord.
Where a standard two-prong wall outlet is en ountered,
it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it
repla ed 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,
leaning, or removing a light bulb, turn the ontrol
(Thermostat, Refrigerator Control or Freezer Control,
depending on the model) to OFF and then dis onne t the
refrigerator from the ele tri al sour e. When you are
finished, re onne t the refrigerator to the ele tri al sour e
and reset the ontrol (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 ele t to use
an extension ord, it is absolutely ne essary that it be a
UL-listed (USA), 3-wire grounding type applian e
extension ord having a grounding type plug and outlet,
and that the ele tri al rating of the ord be 15 amperes
(minimum) and 120 volts.
Use of an extension ord will in rease the learan e
needed for the ba k of the refrigerator.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, this applian e must be
properly grounded. Have the wall outlet and the ir uit
he ked by a qualified ele tri ian to make sure the
outlet is properly grounded.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
• Repair or repla e immediately all ele tri servi e ords that
have be ome frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a
ord that shows ra ks or abrasion damage along its length
or at either the plug or onne tor end.
• When moving your refrigerator away from the wall, be
areful not to roll over or damage the power ord.
• Keep fingers out of pinch point areas; learan es between
the doors and abinet are ne essarily small. Be areful
losing doors when hildren are in the area.
• This refrigerator must be properly installed in a ordan e
with the Attention Installer Instructions that were taped to
the front of the refrigerator.
• Don’t tou h the lamp, in ase of light on the long time,
Be ause it an be very hot.
• DO NOT refreeze frozen foods whi h have thawed
ompletely. The United States Department of Agri ulture in
Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 says:
…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if
they still ontain i e rystals or if they are still old—below
40°F (4°C).
…Thawed ground meats, poultry or fish that have any off-
odor or off- olor should not be refrozen and should not be
eaten. Thawed i e ream should be dis arded. If the odor
or olor of any food is poor or questionable, get rid of it.
The food may be dangerous to eat.
Even partial thawing and refreezing redu es the eating
quality of foods, parti ularly fruits, vegetables and prepared
foods. The eating quality of red meats is affe ted less than
that of many other foods. Use refrozen foods as soon as
possible to save as mu h of their quality as you an.

LEVELING AND DOOR ALIGNMENT
Leveling
After installing, se ure the produ t with the LEG not to
move left or right.
Your refrigerator has two front leveling legs—one on the
right and one on the left. If your refrigerator seems
unsteady or you want the doors to lose easier, adjust the
refrigerator’s tilt using the instru tions below:
1. Plug the refrigerator’s power ord into a 3-prong
grounded outlet. Move the refrigerator into its final
position.
2. Turn the leveling leg lo kwise to raise that side of the
refrigerator or ounter lo kwise to lower it. It may take
several turns of the leveling leg to adjust the tilt of the
refrigerator.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling legs.
This makes it easier to adjust the legs.
3. Open both doors again and he k to make sure that
they lose easily. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more
to the rear by turning both leveling legs lo kwise. It
may take several more turns, and you should turn both
leveling legs the same amount.
4. Re-adjust if ne essary.
5. Repla e the base over.
NOTE: Your new refrigerator is uniquely designed with
two fresh food doors. Either door an be opened or
losed independently of one another. You may have to
exert slight pressure on doors to get them to lose
ompletely.
Door Alignment
If the spa e between your doors is uneven, follow the
instru tions 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.)

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

ENSURING PROPER AIR CIRCULATION
In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow
between the refrigerator and freezer se tions. As shown
in the illustration below, air enters at top of the freezer and
ir ulates down. From the bottom of the freezer, air is
for ed up to the top of the refrigerator. Air enters
refrigerator through the top vent, then ir ulates and
exists at the bottom, where it returns to the freezer.
MULTI-FLOW
• Multi-Flow means powerful and effe tive ooling
operation. This is espe ially noti eable when new food is
pla ed in the refrigerator ompartment.
• If water or foreign substan es enter the ool air vent
while leaning, effi ien y will be lowered. In addition, if
gasket is damaged, effi ien y may be lowered be ause
of es aping ool air.
Do not block any of cool air vents with food pa kages.
If the vents are blo ked, airflow will be interrupted and
temperature and moisture problems may o ur.
IMPORTANT: Be ause air ir ulates between both
se tions, any odors formed in one se tion will transfer to
the other. You must thoroughly lean both se tions to
eliminate odors. To prevent odor transfer and drying out of
food, wrap or over foods tightly. (See the Food Storage
Guide se tion for details.)
SETTING THE CONTROLS

lets you regulate the temperature in the freezer and
refrigerator ompartments.

The lower the number setting, the older the refrigerator
ompartment will be ome.
• Freezer Temp Control: -6°F to 8°F (-21°C to -13°C)
When the setting is at a lower number, the freezer
