the use of an extension cord.

However, if xou must use an extension cord, it is absolutelx necessary that it be a UIAisted,
3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord haxing, a grounding type I)lu°_ and outlet and

that the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimmn) and 120 xolts.

HOWTOCONNECTELECTRICITY

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

For personal safety, this appfiance must be properly grounded.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped

with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates
with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet

to minimize the possibility of electric shock
hazard from this appliance.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sm'e the outlet is

properly grotmded.
If w)u have only a standard 2-prong wall outlet,

it is w)ur personal respoi_sibility and obligation
to have it replaced with a properly grounded

3-prong wall outlet.

The wine chiller should always be phlgged into
its own individual electrical outlet which has

a w)ltage rating that nmtches the rating plate.

This provides the best perfln'mance and also
prevents overloading house wiring circtfits which

cotfld cause a fire hazard fl'om overheated wires.

Never tmphlg yore" wine chiller by ptflling on
the power cord. Always grip pltlg firmly and

ptfll straight out from the outlet.

Repair or replace immediately all power cords
that have become fl'aved or otherwise damaged,

Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion

damage along its length or at either end.

When moving the wine chiller away ti'om the
wall, be careflfl not to roll over or damage the

power cord.
