ELECTRICAL iNFORMATiON
These guidelines must be followed to ensure that
safety mechanisms in the design of this freezer will
operate properly.
• Refer to the serial plate for correct electrical rating.
The power cord of the appliance is equipped with a
three-prong grounding plug for your protection against
shock hazards. It must be plugged directly into a
properly grounded three-prong receptacle, protected with
a 15 amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker. The
receptacle must be installed in accordance with local
codes and ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician.
Receptacles protected by Ground Fault Circuit
interrupters(GFIC) are NOT RECOMMENDED. DO NOT
USE AN EXTENSION CORD OR ADAPTER PLUG.
• If voltage varies by 10% or more, freezer performance
may be affected. Operating freezer with insufficient
power can damage the motor. Such damage is not
covered under the warranty. If you suspect your house
hold voltage is high or low, consult your power company
for testing.
• To prevent the freezer from being turned off
accidentically, do not plug unit into an outlet controlled
by a wall switch or pull cord.
Do not pinch, knot, or bend the cord in any manner.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS
• To defrost freezer, always unplug unit first.
• Never unplug the freezer by pulling on the cord.
Always grip the plug firmly, and pull straight out from
the receptacle.
Turning the temperature control to OFF turns off the
compressor, but does not disconnect the power to the
light bulb or other electrical components.
Avoid fire hazard or
electric shock. Do not use an extension
cord or an adapter plug. Do not remove
any prong from the power cord.
