IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
AWARNING: When using
this appliance, always exercise basic safety
precautions, including the following:
•Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner's
Manual.
• This refrigerator must be properly installed
in accordance with the Installation
Instructions before it is used.
•Do not allow children to dinth, stand or hang
on the shelves in the refrigerator. They could
damage the refrigerator and seriously injure
themselves.
•Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer
compartment when hands are damp or wet.
Skin may adhere to these extremely cold
surfaces.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance.
•In refrigerators with automatic icemakers,
avoid contact with moving parts of the
ejector mechanism, or with the heating
element located on the bottom of the
icemaker. Do not place f'mgers or hands on
the automatic icemaking mechanism while
the refrigerator is plugged in.
Keep f'mgers 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.
Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning
and making repairs.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that any
servicing be performed by a qualified
individual.
Before replacing a burned-out light bulb,
set the Master Light switch in the OFF
position to turn off the lights in order to
avoid contact with a live wire filament.
(A burned-out light bulb may break when
being replaced.)
NOTE: Setting the refrigerator temperature
controls to OFF does not remove power to
the light circuit.
•Do not refreeze frozen foods which have
thawed completely.
ADANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Child entrapment and suffocation 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 fonow the
instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old
Refrigerator or Freezer:
•Take offthe doors.
•Leave the shelves in place so that children
may not easily climb inside.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
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 wail outlet.
Use ofa GFI (Ground Fault Interruptor) is not
recommended for the refrigerator outlet.
The refrigerator should always be plugged into
its own individual electrical outlet which has a
voltage rating that matches the rating plate.
This provides the best performance and also
prevents overloading house wiring circuits
which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated wires.
DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUG TO
CONNECT THE REFRIGERATOR TO A
2-PRONG OUTLET.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
WITH THIS APPLIANCE.
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.
Refer to the Installation Instructions for
particular electrical system specifications
for this refrigerator.

Automatic Icemaker (on some models) and Sabbath Mode Product Kit
Bottom Freezer Refrigerator
Automatic
icemaker
A new_'mstalled refrigerator may take
12-24 hours to begin making ice.
The icemaker will produce seven cubes per
cycle--approximately 15 cycles in a 24-hour
period.
If the refrigerator is operated before the water
connection is made to the icemaker, set the
power switch to O (off).
When the refrigerator has been connected to
the water supply, set the power switch to | (on).
Throw away the first full bucket 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 icemaker will stop producing ice.
It is normal for several cubes to be joined together.
ffice is not used frequendy, old ice cubes will
become cloudy, taste stale and shrink.
PowerSwitch lcemaker
ffice cubes get stuck in the icemaker, set the
power switch to O (off) and remove the cubes.
Set the power switch to I (on) to restart the
icemaker.
After the icemaker has been turned on again,
there will be a delay of about 45 minutes before
the icemaker resumes operations.
The ice bucket is conveniently located in the
upper freezer basket. Occasionally ice cubes may
spill out of the bucket. Should the ice cubes fall
to the bottom of the freezer, they are of no
concern; they will sublimate away harmlessly.
NOTE: In homes with low water pressure, you
may hear the icemaker water valve cycle on
several times when making one batch of ice.
