These guidelines must be followed to ensure that safety mechanisms in the design of this refrigerator/freezer will operate properly.

Refer to the serial plate for correct electrical rating. The power cord of the freezer is equipped with at three- prong grounding plug for protection against shock hazards. It must be plugged directly in to its own properly grounded three-prong receptacle, protected with a 15 amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker. The receptacle must be installed in accordance with the local codes and ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician. Receptacles with Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are NOT RECOMMENDED.

DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD OR AN ADAPTER PLUG.

If the voltage varies by 10 percent or more, refrigerator/freezer performance may be affected. Operating the refrigerator/freezer with insufficient power can damage the motor. Such damage is not covered under the warranty. If you suspect your voltage is high or low, consult your power company for testing.

To prevent the refrigerator/freezer from being turned off accidentally, do not plug the unit in to an outlet controlled by a wall switch or pull cord.

Do not pinch, knot, or bend the power cord in any manner.

NEVER UNPLUG THE REFRIGERATOR/FREEZER BY PULLING ON THE POWER CORD. ALWAYS GRIP THE PLUG FIRMLY AND PULL STRAIGHT OUT FROM THE RECEPTACLE.
