SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Read all of the instructions before using this appliance.
When using this appliance, always exercise basic safety
precautions, including the following:
NOTE: If the refrigerator/freezer has been placed in a horizontal or
tilted position for any period of time wait 24 hours before
plugging the unit in.
1) Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this use
and care guide.
2) This refrigerator/freezer must be properly installed in accordance with
the installation instructions before it is used. See grounding instructions
in the installation section.
3) This refrigerator/freezer should not be recessed or built-in an enclosed
cabinet. It is designed for freestanding installation only.
4) Never unplug your refrigerator/freezer by pulling on the power cord.
Always grasp the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.
5) 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, the plug or the connector
end.
6) If your old refrigerator/freezer is not being used, we recommend that
you remove the doors. This will reduce the possibility of danger to
children.
7)
WARNING: After your refrigerator/freezer is in operation, do not
touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment,
particularly when hands are damp or wet. Skin may
adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
8) Do not refreeze foods that have been thawed completely. The United
States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69
reads: "…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if
they still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold-below 40°F".
"…Thawed ground meats, poultry, or fish that have any off-odour or
off-colour should not be refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice
cream should be discarded. If the odour or colour of any food is poor or
questionable, discard it. The food may be dangerous to eat."

2
"…Even partial thawing and re-freezing reduce 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."
9) Do not use any electrical device or any sharp instrument in defrosting
your refrigerator.
10) Unplug your refrigerator/freezer before cleaning or before making any
repairs.
Note: If for any reason this product requires service, we strongly
recommend that said service be provided by a certified technician.
11) Do not operate your refrigerator in the presence of explosive fumes.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER
Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old
refrigerator or freezer, take off the doors. Leave the shelves
in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

Installing Your Refrigerator
Unpacking Your Refrigerator
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive
tape holding the refrigerator accessories inside and outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before
powering on the refrigerator.
Leveling Your Refrigerator
tYour refrigerator has two leveling legs, which are located in the front bottom
corners of your refrigerator. After properly placing your
refrigerator in its final position, you can level your refrigerator.
tLeveling legs can be adjusted by turning them counterclockwise to raise your
refrigerator or by turning them clockwise to lower your refrigerator. The
refrigerator door will close easier when the leveling legs are extended.
Proper Air Circulation
tTo ensure your refrigerator works at the maximum efficiency it was designed for,
you should install it in a location where there is proper air circulation, plumbing
and electrical connections.
tThe following are recommended clearances around the refrigerator:
Sides……………3/4" (19 mm)
Top....................2" (50 mm)
Back..................2" (50 mm)
WARNING: ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT - SHOCK HAZARD
Electrical Requirement
tMake sure there is a suitable power outlet (120 volts, 15 amps outlet) with proper
grounding to power the refrigerator.
ttAvoid the use of three prong adapters or cutting off the third grounding prong
in order to accommodate a two prong outlet. This is a dangerous practice since
it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and may result in shock
hazard.
WARNING: USE OF EXTENSION CORDS- POTENTIAL SAFETY
HAZARD
Use of Extension Cords
tAvoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that will
accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord must be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance. DO NOT USE EXTENSION
CORDS LONGER THAN 12 FT.
Please note that the use of 2-prong adapters is strictly forbidden in Canada.

for more than 5 days.
tIf ice cube tray freezes to the bottom of the compartment, pour a little
warm water around it to loosen it. Do not use boiling water, which can
damage plastic parts, or sharp metal objects such as a knife or screw-
driver, which can damage the cooling system tubing. Wash the ice
cube tray in lukewarm water only. Do not wash in the dishwasher.

completely removed.
2. To replace the shelf, gently slide the
shelf back.

A-Can™” compartment. Each compartment will hold up to six
cans. Simply load the cans from the top. To dispense a can,
simply draw one out from the bottom. It is that easy.

CONSIGNES GÉNÉRALES DE SECURITÉ
ATTENTION: Lire l’ensemble des instructions avant d’utiliser
l’appareil. Lors de l’utilisation de cet appareil,
prendre toutes les mesures de sécurité de base, y
compris les suivantes:
REMARQUE: Si le réfrigérateur a été placé en position horizontale ou
en position inclinée, que ce soit pour longtemps ou non,
attendez 24 heures avant de brancher l’appareil.
1) N’utiliser cet appareil que pour l’usage prévu, tel que décrit dans ce
guide d’utilisation et d’entretien.
2) Ce réfrigérateur doit être correctement installé, conformément aux
instructions d’installation avant d’être utilisé. Voir les instructions de
mise à la terre dans la section Installation.
3) Ce réfrigérateur ne doit être ni encastré, ni installé dans un placard. Il
a été conçu pour une installation autonome uniquement.
4) Ne jamais tirer sur le cordon d’alimentation pour débrancher le réfri-
gérateur. Toujours saisir fermement la fiche et la tirer tout droit hors de
la prise.
5) Réparer ou remplacer immédiatement tout cordon électrique effiloché
ou autrement endommagé. Ne pas utiliser un cordon fissuré, abrasé
ou dont la prise ou le connecteur est endommagé.
6) Si le réfrigérateur n’est pas utilisé, nous recommandons d’en retirer
les portes afin de réduire le danger qu’il peut représenter pour les
enfants.
7) ATTENTION: Une fois le réfrigérateur en fonctionnement, ne pas
toucher les surfaces froides du congélateur,
particulièrement avec des mains mouillées ou
humides. La peau peut adhérer à ces surfaces
extrêmement froides.
8) Ne pas recongeler les aliments qui ont été complètement décongelés.
Le bulletin maisons et jardins du ministère de l’agriculture des États-
Unis no. 69 stipule : « ..Les aliments congelés peuvent être recongelés
en toute sécurité s’ils contiennent toujours des cristaux de glace ou si
leur température est toujours inférieure à 4,5 °C (40 °F) ».
« …Les viandes hachées, la volaille et le poison présentant une odeur
ou une couleur suspecte ne doivent être ni recongelés, ni mangés.
La crème glacée dégelée doit être jetée. Tout aliment présentant une
odeur ou couleur douteuse doit être jeté car leur ingestion pourrait être
dangereuse.»

« …La décongélation ou la recongélation, même partielle, réduit la qualité
gustative des aliments, en particulier des fruits, légumes et plats préparés.
La qualité gustative des viandes rouges est beaucoup moins affectée
que celle de nombreux autres aliments. Utiliser les aliments recongelés
dès que possible, afin de conserver un maximum de leur qualité gustat-
ive. »
9) Ne pas utiliser d’appareils électriques ou d’objets pointus pour dégivrer le
réfrigérateur.
10) Débrancher le réfrigérateur avant de le nettoyer ou d’effectuer toute
réparation. Remarque: si, pour une raison quelconque, ce produit devait
être réparé, nous recommandons vivement de confier le travail à un
technicien certifié.
11) Ne pas utiliser le réfrigérateur en présence d’émanations explosives.
