3 Safety Precautions
IMPORTANTIMPORTANT
PLEASE READ all instructions completely before
attempting to install, operate, or service your unit.
• Proper installation procedures must be followed
if this unit is being initially installed, or is moved
to a new location after being in service. An
INSTALLATION GUIDE for your unit, providing
complete installation information is available
from U-Line Corporation directly, and must be
consulted before any installation is begun. U-Line
contact information appears on the rear cover of
this guide.
• This unit requires connection to a grounded
(three-prong), polarized receptacle that has been
placed by a qualified electrician in accordance
with applicable electrical codes.
WARNING
SHOCK HAZARD - Electrical Grounding Required.
• Never attempt to repair or perform
maintenance on the unit until the electricity
has been disconnected.
• Never remove the round grounding prong from
the plug and never use a two-prong grounding
adapter.
• Altering, cutting of power cord, removal of
power cord, removal of power plug, or direct
wiring can cause serious injury, fire and/or loss
of property and/or life, and will void the
warranty.
• Never use an extension cord to connect power
to the unit.
• Always keep your working area dry.
CAUTION

statement will result in severe personal injury or
death.
WARNING

statement could result in serious personal injury
or death.
CAUTION
Caution means that failure to follow this safety
statement may result in minor or moderate

General Precautions
Use this appliance for its intended purpose only and
follow these general precautions along with those listed
throughout this guide:
• Use care when moving and handling the unit. Use
gloves to prevent personal injury from sharp

damage to the inner lining.

can cause the unit to malfunction. This could void
the warranty.
• Allow unit temperature to stabilize for 24 hours
before use.
• If your model requires defrosting, never use an
ice pick or other sharp instrument to help speed
up defrosting. These instruments can puncture
the inner lining or damage the cooling unit.
• Use only genuine U-Line replacement parts.
Imitation parts can damage the unit, affect its
operation or performance and may void the
warranty.
DANGER
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT. Before you throw away
your old refrigerator or freezer, take off the doors
and leave shelves in place so that children may not
