NS-CZ35WH9

3.5 Cu. Ft. Chest Freezer

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a high-quality Insignia product. Your NS-CZ35WH9 represents the state of the art in chest freezer design and is designed for reliable and trouble-free performance.

Important Safety Instructions

CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

This symbol indicates that dangerous voltage constituting a risk of electric shock is present within your freezer.

This symbol indicates that there are important operating and maintenance instructions in the literature accompanying your freezer.

WARNING

1Read these instructions.

2Keep these instructions.

3Heed all warnings.

4Follow all instructions.

5Do not use this appliance near water.

6Clean only with a damp cloth or sponge using a non-corrosive, neutral detergent. Remove residual detergent with clear water.

7Do not block any ventilation openings.

8Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

9Do not install near any heat sources, such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus that produce heat.

10Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

11Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where it exits from the appliance.

12Do not attempt to modify or extend the power cord of your freezer.

13Unplug your freezer during lightning storms or when it will not be used for long periods of time.

14Make sure that the available AC power matches the voltage requirements of your freezer.

15Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This could result in an electric shock.

16Unplug the power cord by holding the plug, never by pulling the cord.

17Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when your freezer has been damaged in any way, such as the power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into your freezer, your freezer has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

18To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose your freezer to rain, moisture, dripping, or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids should be placed on top of it.

19Do not use extension cords or ungrounded (two prong) adapters. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet near your freezer. Use of an extension cord can negatively affect your freezer’s performance.

20Your freezer is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of your freezer by a person responsible for their safety.

21Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with your freezer.

22If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified person, in order to avoid a hazard.

WARNING

Electric Shock Hazard

Failure to follow these instructions can result in electric shock, fire, or death.

1WARNING–Keep ventilation openings, in both your freezer and the built-in structure, clear of obstruction.

2WARNING–Do not touch the interior of your freezer with wet hands. This could result in frostbite.

3WARNING–Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer.

4WARNING–Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

5WARNING–Do not damage the refrigerant tubing when handling, moving, or using your freezer.

6WARNING–DANGER—Never allow children to play with, operate, or crawl inside your freezer. Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old freezer:

•Take off the doors.

•Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

7Unplug your freezer before carrying out user maintenance on it.

8If a component part is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similar qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

9Follow local regulations regarding disposal of your freezer due to flammable refrigerant and gas. All refrigeration products contain refrigerants, which under the guidelines of federal law must be removed before disposal. It is the consumer's responsibility to comply with federal and local regulations when disposing of this product.

10Your freezer is intended to be used in household and similar environments.

11Do not store or use gasoline or any flammable liquids inside or in the vicinity of your freezer.

12WARNING–Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartment of your freezer, unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.

Note: If your freezer has been placed in a horizontal or tilted position for any period of time, let your freezer sit upright for 24 hours before plugging it in.

Grounding requirement

Your freezer must be grounded. Your freezer is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an outlet that is correctly installed and grounded.

Incorrect use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether your freezer is correctly grounded.
