READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, or injury when using your refrigerator/freezer, follow these basic safety precautions:

• Double-drawer refrigerators are designed to be built-in only. They cannot be used free-standing.

• Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.

• This refrigerator must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.

• Unplug the refrigerator/freezer before making repairs, or cleaning.
  NOTE: Power to the refrigerator/freezer cannot be disconnected by any setting on the control panel.
  NOTE: Repairs must be performed by a qualified Service Professional.

• Replace all parts and panels before operating.

•  Donor use an extension cord.

• Keep flammable materials and vapors away from the appliance.

•  Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in this appliance.

• To prevent suffocation and entrapment hazards to children, remove the fresh food and freezer doors from any refrigerator/freezer before disposing of it or discontinuing its use.

• To avoid serious injury or death, children should not stand on, or play in or with the appliance.

• Children and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and  knowledge can use this appliance only if they are  supervised or have been given instructions on safe use and understand the hazards involved.

• This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as: staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments; farm houses; by clients in hotels, motels, bed & breakfast and other residential environments; catering and similar non-retail applications.

• Do not apply harsh cleaners to the refrigerator. Certain cleaners will damage plastic which may cause parts such as the door or door handles to detach unexpectedly. See the Care and Cleaning section for detailed instructions.

WARNING TIP OVER HAZARD
These appliances are top heavy, especially with any doors open, and must be secured to prevent tipping forward which could result in death or serious injury. Read and follow the entire installation instructions for securing the appliance with the anti-tip system.
WARNING
EXCESS WEIGHT HAZARD
Use two or more people to move and install dual-drawer refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
WARNING
CUT HAZARD
Cabinet edges along stamp/cut-out areas may be sharp. Avoid placing hands, fingers or other appendages near these areas. Failure to do so can result in cuts.
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of injury when using your refrigerator/freezer, follow these basic safety precautions.

• Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they are cold. Glass shelves and covers may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or  impact, such as bumping or dropping. Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small pieces if it breaks.
• Keep fingers out of the “pinch point” areas; clearances between the doors and between the doors and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful closing doors when children are in the area.
• Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed completely.

WARNING
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD Flammable Refrigerant
This appliance contains isobutane refrigerant, also known as R600a, a natural gas with high environmental compatibility. However, it is also combustible. Adhere to the warnings below to reduce the risk of injury or property damage.

1. When handling, installing and operating the appliance, care should be taken to avoid damage to the refrigerant tubing.
2.  Service shall only be performed by authorized service personnel. Use only manufacturer-authorized service parts.
3.  Dispose of refrigerator in accordance with the Federal and Local Regulations. The flammable refrigerant and insulation material used in this product require special disposal procedures. Contact your local authorities for the environmentally safe disposal of your refrigerator.
4. Keep ventilation openings in the appliance enclosures or in the built-in structure clear of obstruction.
5.  To remove frost, scrape with a plastic or wood spatula or scraper. Do not use an ice pick or a metal or sharpedged instrument as it may puncture the appliance liner and then the flammable refrigerant tubing behind it.
6. Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartment of the appliance.
7. Do not use any electrical device to defrost your appliance.
8.  Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

INSTALLATION

WARNING
** FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Keep flammable materials and vapors away from refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
CONNECTING ELECTRICITY
WARNING
** Electrical Shock Hazard.

• Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet
• Do not remove the ground prong
• Do not use an adapter
• Do not use an extension cord.
• Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard  3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the 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 use an adapter.
Use of a GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) is not recommended for the fresh-food refrigerator.
A 115 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.
Immediately discontinue use of a damaged supply cord. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified service professional with an authorized service part from the manufacturer.
When moving the refrigerator away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord. DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUG TO CONNECT THE FRESH-FOOD REFRIGERATOR TO A 2-PRONG OUTLET.
PROPER DISPOSAL OF YOUR OLD REFRIGERATOR
WARNING SUFFOCATION AND ENTRAPMENT HAZARD
Failure to follow these disposal instructions can result in death or serious injury
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous even if they will sit for “just a few days.” if you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Appliance

• Take off the fresh food and freezer doors.
•  Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

Refrigerant and Foam Disposal:
Dispose of appliance in accordance with Federal and Local Regulations. Flammable refrigerant and insulation material used requires special disposal procedures. Contact your local authorities for the environmentally safe disposal of your
appliance.

Newer appliances sound different from older appliances. Modern appliances have more features and use newer technology.
Do you hear what I hear? These sounds are normal.
HUMMM…
WHOOSH…

• Sometimes the appliance runs for an extended period, especially when the drawers are opened frequently.
• You may hear a whooshing sound when the drawers close. This is due to pressure equalizing within the appliance.
• The cabinet fan runs continuously except when the drawer is opened.

CLICKS, POPS, CRACKS and CHIRPS

• You may hear cracking or popping sounds when the appliance is first plugged in. This happens as the appliance cools to the correct temperature.

• If the drawer is open for over 3 minutes, you may hear the fans come on in order to cool the light bulbs.
• The fans change speeds in order to provide optimal cooling and energy savings.

WATER SOUNDS

• The flow of refrigerant through the freezer cooling coils may make a gurgling noise like boiling water.
• Water dropping on the defrost heater can cause a sizzling, popping or buzzing sound during the defrost cycle.
• A water dripping noise may occur during the defrost cycle as ice melts from the evaporator and flows into the drain pan.
