GROUNDING THE REFRIGERATOR
IMPORTANT—PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE
MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.
The power supply cord of this appliance is
equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug
which mates with a standard three-prong

possibility of electric shock hazard from this
appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is
properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it is your personal responsibility
and obligation to have it replaced with a properly
grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT
OR REMOVE THE THIRD
(GROUND) PRONG FROM
THE POWER CORD.
DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUG
TO CONNECT THE REFRIGERATOR
