SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This appliance does not contain a compressor and once plugged securely into an active,
120 V, 60 Hz, grounded power outlet, it will begin the cooling process instantly without
producing a noise.
Make sure there is a sufficient and unobstructed air flow for ventilating purposes.
See INSTALLATION guideline on page 3.
This appliance should not be used as a freezer nor should it be used for storing products
that require temperatures lower than 40˚F (milk, ice cream, dairy products, raw meat, and
some medications).
Keep flammable materials, liquids or solids, away from this appliance.
Avoid placing articles on top of this appliance and do not apply excessive force to the door.
All repairs of this appliance must be performed by qualified personnel only.
Any unauthorized modification to this appliance will void the warranty and may cause
malfunction and/or injury.
Handle electrical cord with caution and disconnect power before replacing a light bulb.
Use this appliance in accordance with all applicable codes and regulations.
The use of an extension cord is not suggested. Extension cords are available and may be
used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used:
1) The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance;
2) The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord; and
3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over counter tops, tabletops,
etc., where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
