GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
DANGER
Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer, take off the doors and leave shelves in place so children may not easily climb inside.
DANGER
Altering or cutting of the power cord, or removal of the power plug, or direct wiring can cause serious injury, fire and/or loss of property and/or life and will void the warranty.
WARNING
• Never attempt to repair or perform maintenance on the unit until the electricity has been disconnected.
• The anti-tip kit must be installed on this unit before it is used. Never use the shelves or doors as steps or to sup­port more than they are designed to support.
CAUTION
• Do not lift unit by shelves or door handle.
• Failure to clean the condenser every three months can cause the unit to malfunction. This could void the warranty.
• Never install the unit behind closed doors. Be sure front louvered toe plate is free of obstruction. Obstructing free air flow can cause unit to malfunction and may void the warranty.
CAUTION
Use only Perlick replacement parts. Imitation parts can dam­age the unit, and may void the warranty.

PREPARING THE SPACE
Make sure the installation opening is properly prepared. Refer to Figure 1 for space dimensions.
CAUTION
If unit is to be installed under a countertop, it is recommend­ed that the countertop be supported by a structure other than the unit itself, to prevent damage to the countertop.
IMPORTANT: For a cabinet door to operate properly, the door must open
a minimum of 100° (see Figure 1). Use a minimum 4-1/2" filler in corner installations to ensure a 100° opening. Allow enough clearance in front of the unit for full door swing or shelf pull-out.
IMPORTANT: Make sure floor under unit is level with the surrounding finished floor. Protect a finished floor with plywood, cardboard or some other suitable material before moving the unit into place. Failure to do this may result in damage to the floor.
PREPARING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
A 115 volt, 60Hz, 15 amp circuit breaker and electrical supply are required. A separate circuit is recommended
Follow the National Electrical Code along with local codes and ordinances when installing the receptacle.
All Perlick units come equipped with a NEMA 5-15P, 90° plug with a 5’ cord (minimum) extending beyond the rear of the unit. The electrical out­let must be flush with, or recessed into, the back wall.
DANGER
ELECTROCUTION HAZARD!
Electrical grounding required. This appliance is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) polarized plug for protection against possible shock hazards.
• Never remove the round grounding prong from the plug.
• Never use a 2-prong grounding adapter.
• Never use an extension cord to connect power to the unit.
If a 2-prong wall receptacle is encountered, or a longer power cord is required, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper 3-prong receptacle in accordance with applicable electrical codes.
DANGER
Failure to comply with the above electrical guidelines may result in possible injury/death/fire or loss of property.
UNPACKING AND MOVING THE UNIT
CAUTION
Do not cut cardboard sleeve covering the unit. Cutting may result in damage to the exterior of the unit.
1. Uncrate the unit outside on a flat level surface. Remove the cardboard
sleeve by removing the banding holding the sleeve to the shipping base. Carefully lift the cardboard sleeve up over the top of the cabi­net.
2. Carefully lift unit off base and onto a hand truck or dolly (this should be done with a minimum of two people, larger cabinets may require additional helpers). Make sure unit is balanced on transporting device. Secure unit to transporting device using soft flexible strap­ping. Protect cabinet surfaces with cloth material where strapping contacts the unit.
3. Before moving unit, secure door to unit with tape to hold the door closed.
WARNING
A minimum of two people should lift the cabinet off the base to prevent possible personal injury.
4. Carefully move unit to installation site and place in front of opening.
ANTI-TIP BRACKETS
WARNING
Unit may tip forward if loaded racks/shelves are all pulled out at the same time. To prevent tipping and provide a stable installation, the unit must be secured in place with the anti­tip brackets provided with the unit.
A set of metal anti-tip brackets and #10 x 3/4" screws are supplied with the unit. The anti-tip brackets, when properly installed, should secure the rear legs and prevent the unit from tipping forward.
Some installation sites may require modification to provide a secure sur­face for attaching the brackets. Refer to Figure 2 for mounting bracket locations.
