Use of Adapter Plug
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against use of an
adapter plug However, if you still elect to use an
adapter, where local codes permit, a TEMPORARY
CONNECTION may be made to a properly grounded
2-prong wall outlet by use of a UL listed adapter
(Fig. 2) available at most local hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter
mustbe aligned with the
larger slot in the wall outlet
to provide proper polarity
in the connection of the
power cord
CAUTION: Attaching an
adapter ground terminal to
the wall outlet cover screw

does not ground the appliance unless the cover screwis
metal, and not insulated, and the wall outlet is grounded
through the house wiring. You should have circuit
checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet
isproperly grounded
When disconnecting the power cord from the
adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand
If this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is
very likely to break with repeated use
Should the adapter ground terminal break,
DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper
ground has again been established.
Use of Extension Cords
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the use
of an extension cord However, if you still elect to use
an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it
be a ULlisted 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
Starting the Refrigerator
Location
o install the refrigerator on a floor strong enough to
support itwhen it is fully loaded
o Do not install it where the temperature will be
below 60°F (16°C_) because it will not run often
enough to maintain proper temperatures
o Do not install it next to your range, a heating vent
or where the sunwill shine directly on it
Clearances
Allow the following clearances for ease of installation,
proper air circulation, and plumbing and electrical
connections:
Sides ......... 1/8" (3 ram)
Top ............... 1/8" (3 mm)
Back .................. 5/8" (16 ram}
(If built-in, allow 7/8" [22 mini at top for hinge covers.)
If the refrigerator is against a wall on either side, allow
3/4" (19 ram) for door clearances
Rollers
Some models have
adjustable rollers that
allow you to move the
refrigerator away from
the wall for cleaning.
Rollers should be set so
the refrigerator is firmly
positioned on the floor and
the front is raised just enough
screws
(about 3/4" [19 mm] from the floor) that the doors close
easily when opened partway
Turn the _,o front roller adjusting screws clockwise to
raise the refrigerator, counterclockwise to lower it.
(continued next page)
Electrical Requirements
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
overheating wires
