Starting the Refrigera or

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

two-prong wall outlet by use of a UL listed adapter

(Fig. 2) available at most local hardware stores.

The larger slot in the

adapter must be aligned

with the larger slot in the

wall outlet to provide

proper polarity in the

connection of the power

cord°

FIRM CONNECTION

Fig, 2 BEFORE IJSE

CAUTION: Attaching an adapter ground terminal

to the wall outlet cover screw does not ground the

appliance unless the cover screw is 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

is properly 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 UL listed 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 t20 volts_

Electrical Requirements

The refrigerator should always be plugged into its

own individual electrical outlets115 volt, 60 Hertz,

single phase AC_ This is recommended far best

performance and to prevent overloading house

wiring circuits, which could cause a fire hazard

from overheating wires,

Location

o Install the refrigerator on a floor strong enough to

support it when it is fully loaded°

• Do not install it where the temperature will go

below 60°1:.because it will not run often enough to

maintain proper temperatures.

e Do not install it next to your range, a heating vent

or where the sun will shine directly on ito

Clearances

Allow the following clearances for ease of installation,

proper air circulation, and plumbing and electrical

connections:

Sides , __5/8" Top ....... 0" Back ......t"

(If built-in, allow 7/8" at top for hinge covers.)

Allow a 1½" door clearance at refrigerator side,

13/4" at freezer side.

Leveling

Adjustable rollers behind the base grille enable you

to move the refrigerator away from the wall for

cleaning,, These rollers should be set so the

refrigerator rests firmly on the floor with the front

raised just enough that the doors close easily when

opened about halfway. Specially designed door

hinges lift both doors slightly when opened; the

force of gravity helps close

them automatically.

To adjust the rollers:

• Remove the base grille.

Grasp it at the bottom

and pull it out.

= Turn the roller adjusting

screws clockwise to raise

the refrigerator, counter-

clockwise to lower ito Use

an adjustable wrench or

pliers on the 3/8" bolts,

Both doors should close

properly when bottom

front edge of refrigerator

cabinet is about 5/8"

from the floor_

o To replace the base

grille, line up the

prongs on the grille with

the clamps on the

refrigerator and push

forward until the grille

snaps into place_
