Danger of electric shock!
For protection against electric shock

pole-free plug which is protected
against reverse polarity. The plug
must be grounded in the usual way.
Do not remove the round grounding
connector pin from the plug.

Wait for 1 hour after installation before
plugging the appliance into the power
supply. This allows coolant and refriger-
ator oil to settle in accordance with reg-
ulations.
Ensure that the voltage of the main
power supply corresponds with the
connection voltage of the appliance. A
power supply of 110 - 120 V, 60 Hz and
15 Amp (20 Amp for side-by-side instal-
lation) with a NEMA 5-15 molded plug,
which is protected by a main switch or
a fuse, is required to operate the appli-
ance.
The manufacturer recommends operat-
ing the appliance on a separate circuit
to avoid overloading the electrical cir-
cuit.
All relevant legal electrical, fire and
building regulations must be observed
when installing the socket and/or the
appliance.
In certain countries appliances are re-
quired to be connected to the electrical
supply via a wall-mounted ON/OFF
switch.
To avoid the risk of fire, electric shock
or other injuries installation and connec-
tion of the appliance must be carried
out by a suitably qualified electrician in
accordance with all relevant local and
national regulations and standards, in-
cluding fire prevention.
