ICE MAKER SERVICE MANUAL Electrolux SAFE SERVICING PRACTICES ALL APPLIANCES To avoid personal injury and or property damage it is important that Safe Servicing Practices be observed The following are some limited examples of safe practices 1 DO NOT attempt a product repair if you have any doubts as to your ability to complete it in a safe and satisfactory manner 2 Before servicing or moving an appliance e Remove the power cord from the electrical outlet trip the circuit breaker to the OFF position or remove the fuse e Turn off the gas supply and allow any residual gas to dissipate for 10 to 20 minutes 3 Never interfere with the proper operation of any safety device 4 USE ONLY REPLACEMENT PARTS CATALOGED FOR THIS APPLIANCE SUBSTITUTIONS MAY DEFEAT COMPLIANCE WITH SAFETY STANDARDS SET FOR HOME APPLIANCES 5 GROUNDING The standard color coding for safety ground wires is GREEN or GREEN with YELLOW STRIPES Ground leads are not to be used as current carrying conductors It is EXTREMELY important that the service technician reestablish all safety grounds prior to completion of service Failure to do so will create a hazard 6 Prior to returning the product to service ensure that All electrical connections are correct and secure e All electrical leads are properly dressed and secured away from sharp edges high temperature components and moving parts e All non insulated electrical terminals co
