RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
The refrigerator should a}ways be plugged into its own
individual properly grounded electrical outlet rated for
115Volts, 60 Hz, AC only and fused at 15 or 20 amperes
This provides the best performance and also prevents
overloading house wiringcircuits which could cause a fire
hazard from overheated wires. It is recommended that a

it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wait outlet,
