ENERGY-SAVING TIPS
The freezer should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before plac­ing in the freezer. Overloading the freezer forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality or spoil.
Be sure to wrap foods properly and wipe contain­ers dry before placing them in the freezer. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the freezer.
Freezer shelves and baskets should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the freezer
less efcient.
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and
extended searches. Remove as many items as need­ed at one time, and close door as soon as possible.

WARNING
Proper Disposal of your Freezer
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned freezers are still dangerous – even if they will sit for “just a few days”. If you are getting rid of your old freezer, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
We strongly encourage responsible appliance recycling/ disposal methods. Check with your utility company or visit www.recyclemyoldfridge.com for more information on recycling your old wine cooler.
Before you throw away your old freezer:
Remove door/lid.
Leave shelves in place so children may not easily
climb inside.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT indicates installation, operation or maintenance information which is important but not hazard-related.
WARNING
For Your Safety
Do not store or use gasoline, or other ammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance. Read product labels for ammability and
other warnings.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Avoid re hazard or electric shock. Do not use an
extension cord or an adapter plug. Do not remove any prong from power cord.
WARNING
Please read all safety instructions before using your new appliance.
For Your Safety
• Do not store or use gasoline, or other ammable liq­uids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Read
product labels for warnings regarding ammability and
other hazards.
Do not operate the unit in the presence of explosive fumes.
Remove and discard any spacers used to secure the shelves during shipping. Small objects are a choke hazard to children.
Remove all staples from the carton. Staples can cause severe cuts, and also destroy nishes if they come in
contact with other appliances or furniture.
WARNING
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 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 qualied
electrician. Receptacles protected by Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are NOT RECOMMENDED. Do NOT use an extension cord or adapter plug.
If voltage varies by 10 percent or more, freezer perfor­mance may be affected. Operating the freezer with in-
sufcient 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 freezer 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.
WARNING
Child Safety
Destroy carton, plastic bags, and any exterior wrap­ping material immediately after the wine cooler is unpacked. Children should never use these items to play. Cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads, plastic sheets or stretch wrap may become airtight chambers, and can quickly cause suffocation.
An empty, discarded freezer is a very dangerous at­traction to children.
Remove the door(s) of any appliance that is not in use, even if it is being discarded.

WARNING
Other Precautions
• To defrost freezer, always unplug unit rst.
Never unplug the freezer by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug rmly and pull straight out from
the receptacle.
Turning the control to OFF turns off the com­pressor, but does not disconnect power to other electrical components.
