•Replace or repair all electric service cords that have become damaged or frayed.

•Never unplug your freezer by pulling on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.

•Be careful not to roll over or damage the cord, when moving the freezer.

•Unplug your freezer before making repairs or cleaning. It is our recommendation that servicing be done by a qualified technician.

•Unplug your freezer or turn power off at the circuit breaker or fuse box in order to avoid touching a live wire, when replacing a burned-out light bulb. Turning the control to OFF turns off the compressor, but does not disconnect power to other electrical components.

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

If your electricity goes off follow this procedure:

•Call your power company to see how long the power will be out.

•If service is to be interrupted for less than 24 hours, keep freezer closed. This will help food stay frozen.

•If service is to be interrupted for more than 24 hours, either remove food and store in frozen food locker or another freezer.
