NEW OWNERS PLEASE NOTE…

ALWAYS PLACE UNIT IN UPRIGHT POSITION

Do not start or plug-in your new unit for 24 hours after delivery. . .

Units are sometimes accidentally tipped onto their sides during shipping which may allow compressor oil to escape their reservoirs. . .

Premature starting—before the oil has had a chance to resettle—can cause damage to the compressor and result in a lack of cooling.

A DEDICATED 20 AMP CIRCUIT IS HIGHLY

RECOMMENDED FOR OPTIMUM OPERATION!
