Electrical Information
These guidelines must be followed to ensure
that safety mechanisms in the design of this
appliance 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 electrical
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
the local codes and ordinances. Consult a
qualied electrician. Receptacles protected
by Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI)
are NOT RECOMMENDED. Do NOT use an
extension cord or adapter plug.
• If the power cord is damaged, it should be
replaced by an authorized service technician to prevent any risk.
• Never unplug the appliance by pulling on
the power cord. Always grip the plug rmly, and pull straight out from the receptacle
to prevent damaging the power cord.
• Unplug the appliance before cleaning
and before replacing a light bulb to avoid
electrical shock.
• If voltage varies by 10% or more, appliance
performance may be affected. Operating
the unit with insufcient power can damage the motor. Such damage is not covered
under the warranty. If you suspect your
household voltage is high or low, consult
your power company for testing.
• To prevent the appliance from being turned
off accidentally, do not plug unit into an outlet controlled by a wall switch or pull cord.
• Do not pinch, knot, or bend power cord in
any manner.

This Use & Care Guide provides general operating
instructions for your model. Use the unit only
as instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before
starting the unit, follow these important
rst steps.
Location
Choose a place that is near a grounded
electrical outlet.
For the most efcient operation, the appliance
should be located where surrounding
temperatures will not exceed 110°F (43°C).
Temperatures of 32°F (0°C) and below will
NOT affect operation. Additional compressor
heaters are not recommended.
Allow space around the unit for good air
circulation. Leave a 3 inch (75 mm) space on
all sides of the unit for adequate circulation.

NOTE
It is VERY IMPORTANT for your appliance
to be level in order to function properly. If the
unit is not leveled during installation, the door/
lid may be misaligned and not close or seal
properly, causing cooling, frost or moisture
problems.
To level Upright Units:
After discarding crating screws, use a
carpenter’s level to level the appliance from
front to back. Adjust the plastic leveling feet in
front, ½ bubble higher, so that the door closes
easily when left halfway open.
CAUTION
To allow door to close and seal properly, DO
NOT let food packages extend past the front
of shelves.
NOTE
The exterior walls of the unit may become
quite warm as the compressor works to
transfer heat from the inside. Temperatures
as much as 30° F warmer than room
temperature can be expected. For this reason
it is particularly important in hotter climates
to allow enough space for air circulation
around your appliance.
Leveling
The appliance must have all bottom corners
resting rmly on a solid oor. The oor must be
strong enough to support a fully loaded unit.
