IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, or injury when using your
refrigerator, follow these basic safety precautions:
Ŷ 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 ice making mechanism
while the refrigerator is plugged in.
Ŷ Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water
when they are cold. Glass shelves and covers may
break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or
impact, such as bumping or dropping. Tempered glass is
designed to shatter into many small pieces if it breaks.
Ŷ 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.
Ŷ Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer
compartment when hands are damp or wet, skin may
stick to these extremely cold surfaces.
Ŷ Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed
completely.
To reduce the risk of injury when using your refrigerator, follow these basic
precautions.
Ŷ This refrigerator must be properly installed and located in
accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is
used.
Ŷ Replace all parts and panels before operating.
Ŷ Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors
and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Ŷ 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 certified (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.
Ŷ To prevent suffocation and entrapment hazards to
children, remove the fresh food and freezer doors from
any refrigerator before disposing of it or discontinuing its
use.
Ŷ Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the door
handles or the shelves in the refrigerator. They could
seriously injure themselves.
Ŷ Unplug the refrigerator :
• To disconnect power to the refrigerator. It cannot be
turned off by any setting on the control panel.
