ELECTRICAL

REQUIREMENTS

WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric

shock.

• This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

• This appliance is equipped with a power cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

• Consult a qualified electrician or service technician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

• If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it

replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

• For best operation, plug this appliance into its own electrical outlet to prevent flickering of lights, blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit breaker.

• Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

• Do not use an adapter plug with this appliance.

• Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If

the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

An empty refrigerator is a very dangerous attraction to children. Remove either the gasket, latches, lids, lock and/or doors from unused or discarded appliances, or take some other action to guarantee it harmless.

FOR YOUR SAFETY:

PREPARING THE

ENCLOSURE

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS: The appliance must be connected to an

individual, properly grounded electrical outlet, protected by a 15 or 20 ampere circuit breaker or time delay fuse.

• It is recommended that you do not install the wine cooler into a corner (i.e. directly beside a wall). This is to allow the door to have a greater then 90° opening swing. A limited door swing may lead to damaging the door gasket.

• The rough cabinet opening must be on a level floor area and at least 24” deep by 24” wide. The opening should also have a height of at least 34 3/4”.

• The electrical oulet may be positioned from within either side of the adjacent cabinetry, or the rear of the shaded area (as shown in Fig E).

• If the electrical outlet is located inside the adjacent cabinetry, cut a 1-1/2” diameter hole to admit the power cord. If the cabinet wall is metal, the hole edge must be covered with a bushing or grommet.
