INSTALLATION
CHECKING YOUR NEW PITCO APPLIANCE
Your new Pitco appliance has been carefully packed into one crate. Every effort has been made to ensure that it is delivered to you in perfect condition. As you unpack your new appliance, inspect each of the pieces for damage. If something is damaged, DO NOT sign the bill of lading. Contact the shipper immediately; the shipper is only responsible for 15 days after delivery. Check the packing list enclosed with your appliance to ensure that you have received all the parts to the appliance. If you are missing any parts, contact the dealer from whom the appliance was purchased. As you unpack the appliance and its accessories be careful to keep the weight of the appliance evenly distributed.
Locate your Pitco model number, serial number of the appliance and the date of purchase and write them on the cover of this manual for future reference. You will find the model number and serial number on the data plate located inside the door.
CAUTION
To prevent equipment damage and/or personal injury, do not tilt the appliance onto any two of its casters or legs, or pull the appliance by the splash back.
ASSEMBLY
