IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Proper Disposal of Your Appliance
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned appliances are still dangerous – even if they will sit for “just a few days”. If you are getting rid of your old appliance, 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 appliance.
Before you throw away your old appliance:
•Remove lid.
•Have the refrigerant
removed by a qualified service technician.
WARNING
Avoid fire hazard or electric shock. Do not use an extension cord or an adapter plug. Do not remove any prong from power cord.
Grounding type wall receptacle
Do not, under
any circumstances, cut, remove,
or bypass the grounding prong.
Power cord with 3-prong grounded plug
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 freezer 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 qualified electrician. Receptacles protected by Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are NOT RECOMMENDED. Do not use an extension cord or ungrounded (two prong) adapter.
•If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by an authorized service technician to prevent any risk.
•Never unplug the freezer by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly, and pull straight out from the receptacle to prevent damaging the power cord.
•Unplug the freezer before cleaning and before defrosting to avoid electrical shock.
•If voltage varies by 10% or more, freezer performance may be affected. Operating the unit with insufficient 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
Other Precautions
•To defrost freezer, always unplug unit first.
•Never unplug the unit by pulling on the power 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 power to other electrical components.
