CFC/HCFC
DISPOSAL
Your old refrigerator
may
have a cooling system
that
used
CFCs
or
HCFCs
(chlorofluorocarbons
or
hydrochlorofluorocarbons).
CFCs
and
HCFCs
are
believed
to
harm stratospheric ozone
if
released
to
the
atmosphere.
Other
refrigerants
may
also cause harm
to
the environment
if
released
to
the atmosphere.
If
you are throwing
away
your
old
refrigerator, make
sure
the refrigerant
is
removed
for
proper disposal
by a qualified technician.
If
you intentionally release
refrigerant, you
may
be
subject
to
fines
and
imprisonment
under provisions
of
environmental legislation.

A WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
FOR PERSONAL
SAFETY,
this appliance must be
properly grounded. Have the wall outlet
and
the circuit
checked
by
a qualified electrician
to
make
sure
the
outlet
is
properly grounded.

Ensure
proper
ground exists
before
use.
RECOMMENDED
GROUNDING
METHOD
The
refrigerator should always be plugged into its own
individual properly grounded electrical outlet rated
for
115
Volts,
60Hz,
AC only, and fused
at
15
or
20
amperes.
This
provides the best performance
and
also prevents
overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire
hazard
from
overheated wires.
It
is
recommended
that
a
separate circuit serving
only this
appliance
be provided.
Use
a receptacle
that
cannot be turned
off
with a switch
or
pull chain. Do not
use
an extension cord.
Where a standard two-prong
wall outlet
is
encountered,
it
is
your personal responsibility
and
obligation
to
have
it
replaced
with
a properly grounded three-prong wall
outlet.

USE
OF
EXTENSION
CORDS
Because
of
potential
safety
hazards
under
certain
conditions,
the
use
of
an
extension cord is
not
recommended. However,
if
you still elect
to
use
an
extension cord,
it
is
absolutely necessary
that
it
be a UL-
Iisted {USA), 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.
Use
of
an
extension cord
will
increase the clearance
needed
for
the
back
of
the refrigerator.
