electrical shock or injury when using the appliance, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
• Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet, do not remov e grounding prong, do not use an adapter, and do
not use an extension cord.
• Replace all panels before operating.
• It is recommended that a separate circuit servi ng only your appliance be provided. Use receptacles
that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull ch ai n.
• Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.

other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line of the unit is
disconnected.
• Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.

electrical shock or death.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your appliance unless it is specifically recommended in
this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
• This appliance is CFC- and HFC-free and contains a small quantity of Isobutane (R600a) which is
environmentally friendly, but flammable. It does not damage the ozone layer, nor does it increa se t he
greenhouse effect. Care must be taken during transportation and setting up of the applia nce that no
parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can ignite and may damage the ey es.
In the event of any damage:
- Avoid open flames and anything that creates a spark,
- Disconnect from the elect rical power line,
- Air the room in which the appl i ance is located for several minutes and
- Contact the Service Department for advice.
• The more coolant there is in an appliance, the larger the room it should be installed in. In the event of
a leakage, if the appliance is in a small room, there is the danger of combustible gases building up.
For every ounce of coolant at least 325 cubic feet of room space is required. The amount of coolant in
the appliance is stated on the rating label. It is hazardous for anyone other than an Authorized Service
Person to carry out servicing or repairs to this appliance.
