IMPORTANT

SAFETY

INFORMATION.

READ

ALL

INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE

USING.

2

A

WARNING!

Use

this

appliance

only

for

its

intended

purpose

as

described

in

this

Owner's

Manual.

SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS

When

using

electrical

appliances,

basic

safety

precautions

should

be

followed,

including

the

following:

•

This

refrigerator

must

be

properly

installed

and

located

in

accordance

with

the

Installation

Instructions

before

it

is

used.

•

Do

not

allow

children

to

climb,

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, particularly

when

hands

are

damp

or

wet.

Skin

may

stick

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

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.

•

Keep

fingers

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

the

refrigerator

before

cleaning

and

making

repairs.

NOTE:

We

strongly

recommend

that

any

servicing

be

performed

by

a

qualified

individual.

•

Turning

the

control

to

the

OFF

position

does

not

remove

power

to

the

light

circuit.

•

Do

not

refreeze

frozen

foods

which

have

thawed

completely.

•

Before

replacing

a

burned-out

light

bulb,

the

refrigerator

should

be

unplugged

in

order

to

avoid

contact with a

live

wire

filament.

(A

burned-out

light

bulb

may

break

when

being

replaced.)

A

DANGER!

RISK

OF

CHILD

ENTRAPMENT

PROPER

DISPOSAL

OF

THE

REFRIGERATOR

Child

entrapment

and

suffocation

are

not

problems

of

the

past.

Junked

or

abandoned

refrigerators

are

still

dangerous

...

even

ifthey

will

sit

for 'justafew

days.''

If

you

are

getting

rid

of your

old

refrigerator.

please

follow

the

instructions

below

to

help

prevent

accidents.

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.

USE

OF

EXTENSION

CORDS

Refrigerants

All

refrigeration

products

contain

refrigerants,

which

must

be

removed

prior

to product

disposal.

If

you

are

getting

rid

of

an

old

refrigeration

product,

check

with

the

company

handling

the

disposal

about whatto

do.

Because

of

potential

safety

hazards

under

certain

conditions,

we

strongly

recommend

against

the

use

of

an

extension

cord.

However;

if

you

must

use

an

extension

cord,

it

is

absolutely

necessary

that it

be

a

UL-listed

(in

the

United

States)

or

a

CSA-listed

(in

Canada),

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.

geappliances.ca

A

WARNING!

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

wall

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.

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.

Care

and

cleaning

of

the

refrigerator.

6

Cleaning

the

Outside

Keep

the

outside

clean.

Wipe

with a

clean

cloth

lightly

dampened

with

mild

liquid

dish

detergent.

Dry

with a

clean,

soft

cloth.

Do

not

wipe

the

refrigerator

with a

soiled

dish

cloth

or

wet

towel.

These

may

leave

a

residue

that

can

erode

the

paint.

Do

not

use

scouring

pads,

powdered

cleaners,

bleach

or

cleaners

containing

bleach

because

these

products

can

scratch

and

weaken

the

paint

finish.

Cleaning

the

Inside

To

help

prevent

odors,

leave

an

open

box

of

baking

soda

in

the

fresh

food

and

freezer

compartments.

Unplug

the

refrigerator

before

cleaning.

If

this

is

not

practical,

wring

excess

moisture

out of

sponge

or

cloth

when

cleaning

around

switches,

lights

or

controls.

Use

warm water

and

baking

soda

solution-about a

tablespoon

(15

mll

of

baking

soda

to a quart

(1

literl of

This

both

cleans

of

the

refrigerator-including door

gaskets,

fruit

and

vegetable

drawers,

same

way.

After

cleaning

the

door

gaskets,

apply a

thin

layer of

petroleum

jelly to

the

door

gaskets

at

the

hinge

or

other

abrasive

cleaners.
