mation about how to operate and maintain your appliance properly and safely. Please read

it carefully.

Please record your model’s

basic precautions:

•FOR YOUR SAFETY •

OR OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND

LIQUIDS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR

ANY OTHER APPLIANCE. THE FUMES

CAN CREATE A FIRE HAZARD OR

EXPLOSION.

Refrigerator Safety

Your safety is important to us.

This guide contains safety symbols and

statements. Please pay special attention to

these symbols and follow any instructions

given. Here is a brief explanation of the use

of the symbol.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

wWARNING

•Read all instructions before using the

refrigerator.

•Never allow children to operate, play

with, or crawl inside the refrigerator.

•Never clean refrigerator parts with

flammable fluids. The fumes can create

a fire hazard or explosion.

– SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS –

Proper disposal of your old refrigerator

wWARNING

Suffocation Hazard

Remove doors from your old refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death or

brain damage.

cation are not problems of the past. Junked

or abandoned refrigerators are still danger-

ous ... even if they will sit for “just a few

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.

This symbol alerts you

to hazards such as fire,

electrical shock, or other

Before Using Your

Refrigerator

It is important to prepare your refrigerator for use. This section tells you how to clean it,

install it, connect it to a power source, and level it. For information on how to attach the

optional ice maker to a water supply, see page 20, or for information on how to reverse the

door swing, see page 25.

Cleaning your refrigerator

Removing packaging materials

Remove tape and any inside labels (except

the model and serial number label) before

using the refrigerator.

To remove any remaining tape or

label glue:

•Rub briskly with thumb.

•Apply liquid hand-dishwashing detergent to

area before removing glue as described

above. Do not use sharp instruments,

rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or

abrasive cleaners. These can damage

the material. See “Important Safety

Instructions” on page 3.

Installing it properly

1. Allow 1⁄2-inch (1.25 cm) space on each

side and at the top of the refrigerator for

ease of installation.

2. If the hinge side of the refrigerator is to

be against a wall, you might want to

leave extra space so the door can be

opened wider.

3. The refrigerator can be flush against the

back wall.

NOTE: Do not remove any permanent

instruction labels inside your refrigerator.

Do not remove the Tech Sheet fastened

under the refrigerator at the front.

Cleaning it before use

After removing all packaging materials,

clean your refrigerator before

using it, if necessary. See

cleaning instructions on

page 29.
