Frigidaire Refrigerator Manuel d'utilisation et d'entretien

Proper Disposal of Refrigerators/Freezers

We strongly encourage responsible appliance

recycling/disposal methods. Check with your utility

company or visit www.energystar.gov/recycle for

more information on recycling your old refrigerator.

Before you throw

away your old

refrigerator/

freezer:

• Remove doors.

• Leave shelves in

place so children

may not easily

climb inside.

• Have refrigerant

removed by a

qualified service

technician.

WARNING

These guidelines must be followed to ensure

that safety mechanisms in this refrigerator

will operate properly.

Electrical information

• The refrigerator must be plugged into its own

dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp, AC only

electrical outlet. The power cord of the appliance

is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug

for your protection against electrical shock

hazards. It must be plugged directly into a

properly grounded three prong receptacle. The

receptacle must be installed in accordance with

local codes and ordinances. Consult a qualified

electrician. Avoid connecting refrigerator to a

Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit. Do not

use an extension cord or adapter plug.

• If the power cord is damaged, it should

be replaced by an authorized service

technician to prevent any risk.

• Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on

the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly,

and pull straight out from the receptacle to

prevent damaging the power cord.

• Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning

and before replacing a light bulb to avoid

electrical shock.

• Performance may be affected if the voltage

varies by 10% or more. Operating the

refrigerator with insufficient power can

damage the compressor. Such damage is not

covered under your warranty.

• Do not plug the unit into an electrical outlet

controlled by a wall switch or pull cord to

prevent the refrigerator from being turned

off accidentally.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT

Turning the Freezer and Fresh Food

controls to "0" (Mechanical controls) or

"OFF" (Electronic controls) will disable your

refrigerator's cooling system, but does not

disconnect the power to the light bulb and

other electrical components. To turn off

power to your refrigerator you must unplug

the power cord from the electrical outlet.

Grounding type wall receptacle

Do not, under

any circumstances,

cut, remove,

or bypass the

grounding prong.

Power cord with

3-prong grounded plug

CAUTION

To avoid personal injury or property damage,

handle tempered glass shelves carefully.

Shelves may break suddenly if nicked,

scratched, or exposed to sudden temperature

change.

IMPORTANT

CFC/HCFC Disposal

Your old refrigerator may have

a cooling system that used CFCs

or HCFCs (chlorofluorocarbons or

hydrochlorofluorocarbons). CFCs and

HCFCs are believed to harm stratospheric

ozone if released to the atmosphere. Other

refrigerants may also cause harm to the

environment if released to the atmosphere.

If you are throwing away your old

refrigerator, make sure the refrigerant is

removed for proper disposal by a qualified

technician. If you intentionally release

refrigerant, you may be subject to fines

and imprisonment under provisions of

environmental legislation.
