Important Safety Instructions
The manual opens with stern warnings highlighting safety issues related to the use of the refrigerator. It emphasizes not to store or use flammable liquids near the appliance and to avoid operating it in the presence of explosive fumes. Hazard warnings are conveyed using symbols and signify varying degrees of risks, such as DANGER and WARNING, where failure to comply could result in death or serious injury, and CAUTION, which could lead to minor to moderate injury.
Installation Checklist
The manual includes a comprehensive checklist to ensure that the refrigerator is installed correctly. It covers securing handles, ensuring the door seals properly on all sides, leveling the freezer door and the refrigerator itself, and attaching the toe grille properly. It extends to safety measures such as removing all staples from packaging to prevent injuries and damage, confirming that the electrical power is operational and the refrigerator is plugged in.
Further, it instructs checking the installation of the refrigerator’s ice maker, confirming no water leaks, ensuring that the ice maker is activated, and verifying that the ice and water dispenser operates correctly. For select models, it directs to make sure that the front filter is flush with the filter housing.
Final Checks
Post-installation, it prompts the user to remove all shipping materials, set fresh food and freezer temperatures, and adjust the crisper humidity controls. It stresses the importance of submitting the registration card.
Child Safety
The manual ends with an urgent note on child safety.
