HOWTOCONNECTELECTRICITY

Donot, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third

(ground) prong from the power cord. For personal safe_

this appliance must be properly grounded.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-prong

(grourlding) plug which mates with a standard 3-prong

(grour_dirN) wall outlet to mirdnfize the possibility ot electric

shock hazard fl'om this appliance.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician

to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

"_,here a standard 2-pron_ wall outlet is encountered, it is _our

personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a

properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

The reti'igerator should alwa) s be plugged into its own indMdual

• " o '• " •

electrical outlet wlnch has a voltage rating that matches the rating

plate.

This provides the best perfommnce and also prevents overloading

house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard fl'om

overheated wires.

Never unplug your reii'igerator by pulling on tile power cord.

Ahvays grip __r_luo_firmh• and l)ull straight, out ti'om tile outlet.

Repair or replace immediately all power cords that h_ve become

ti'ayed or otheiavise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks

or abrasion damage along its length or at either end.

When moving the refl'igerator away fi'om the wall. be carethl not to

roll over or damage tile power cord.

USEOFADAPTERPLUGS

Because ofpotential safety hazards under certain conditions,

we strongly recommend against the use of an adapter plug.

However, ifyou nltlSt use an adapter, where local codes permit, a

temporaryconnectionma} be made to a properl} grounded 2-prong

wall outlet byuse eta UIAisted adapter available at most lolal

hardware stores.

The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with the larger slot in

the wall outlet to provide proper polarityin the _onne( dor_ oI the

power cord.

When disconnecting the power cord Fern the adapter, always hold

the adapter in place with one hand while pulling the power cord

plug with the other hand. II this is not done, the adapter gTound

terminal is vet) likely to break with repeated use.

If the adapter ground temfinal breaks, O0 NOT USE the reti'igerator

until a proper grourld has been established.

Attaching theadapterground terminal to a wall outlet cover screw does not

ground theappliance unless thecoverscrew ismetal, and not insulated,and the

waft outlet isgrounded throughthe housewiring. Youshould have thecircuit

checkedby a qualified electrician to makesure the outlet isproperly grounded

USEOFEXTENSIONCORDS

Because of potential safety hazards under certain

conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of an

extension cord.

Ho_vver, iI}xm must use an extension cord, it is absolutely

necessary that it be a UI Aisted, 3-wire grounding type appliance

extension cord having a grourKtirlg t)i)e plug and outlet and that

the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and

120 vohs,

REMEMBER...

Yourcontinued health and safety are important to us.

Please read and follow this Safety Information carefully.

We want you to remain a happy and healthy part of our

GEfamily.
