SAFETY INFORMATION

DANGER!

RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE CABINET

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned display cases are
still dangerous… even if they will sit for “just a few
days.” If you are getting rid of your old display case,
please follow the instructions below to help prevent
accidents. Depending on the country where the
unit is located there will be officially approved ways
of disposing of your used equipment.

Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer
or Heated Cabinet:

• Take off the doors.

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

SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING!

HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
For personal safety, this appliance 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 sure the outlet is
properly grounded.

If the outlet is a standard 2-prong outlet, it is your
personal responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with the properly grounded 3-prong wall
outlet.

The heated cabinet should always be plugged into
it’s own individual electrical circuit, which has a
voltage rating that matches the rating plate.

This provides the best performance and also
prevents overloading building wiring circuits which
could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.

Never unplug your cabinet by pulling on the power
cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out
from the outlet.

Repair or replace immediately all power cords that
have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not
use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either end.

When removing the cabinet away from the wall, be
careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.

USE OF EXTENSION CORDS / ADAPTER PLUGS

Do not use adapter plugs or extension leads as these can cause safety issues and early failure of electrical components. The use of
adapters and extension cords will invalidate your warranty. NEVER USE AN EXTENSION CORD! NEVER USE AN ADAPTER PLUG!

WARNING

Power supply cord ground should not be removed!

NOTE

To reference wiring diagram - Remove lower rear grill.

Wiring diagram is positioned on the inside cabinet wall.
