To clean the freezer, use only mild detergents. Never use harsh chemicals or solvents.
Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appli-
ance. The fumes can create a fire hazard.
Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the appliance.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Ensure the freezer is unplugged before cleaning or if not in use.
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.
Use the portable freezer only for its intended function. This appliance is designed for household, non-
commercial use only. Any other use will void the warranty.
Do not plug this portable freezer into the power source before setup is completed.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, OR INJURY WHEN
USING YOUR PORTABLE FREEZER, FOLLOW THESE BASIC PRECAUTIONS:
An empty portable freezer can be dangerous for children and small animals. If disposing of the portable freezer,
remove gaskets, latches, lids, and the entire freezer door from your unused appliance so that children or small
animals cannot be trapped inside.
The portable freezer is an electrical appliance. To avoid serious injury from electrical shock, do not operate the
freezer with wet hands, while standing on a wet surface, or while standing in water.
To avoid the risk of shock, the product should never be used in bathrooms, shower rooms, or in any other
steamy or wet areas.
During installation, the power supply must not be excessively or dangerously bent or flattened.
Do not tamper with controls.
Make sure the power plug is placed fully and firm into the power source. If the wall receptacle you intend to use
is not adequately grounded or protected by a time delay fuse or circuit breaker, have a qualified electrician install
an outlet that is appropriate to local electrical codes and requirements.
Do not use multiple socket or an extension cord as it may overheat and become a risk of fire. Please ensure that
the freezer is plugged directly into the electrical outlet.
The cord should be secured behind the unit and should not be left exposed or dangling.
Make sure the power plug is clean before usage.
Make sure hands are dry when connecting the power plug. The appliance is equipped with a three-prong
grounded plug on the power cord for your protection. Never modify, remove or attempt to repair the power plug
yourself.
Never pull the power cord to disconnect the unit from an outlet. Grasp the plug directly and pull it from the outlet.
Never lift or carry the freezer by the power cord.
Keep the power cord away from heated surfaces.
Do not repair, disassemble and/or modify the appliance by yourself.
Always turn off the appliance when cleaning or transporting.
Transport the appliance in an upright position only.
Always place the appliance on even and hard and level surface.

Safety Precautions
WARNING
When positioning the portable freezer, ensure that there is at least a 6” clearance at the sides of the portable
freezer. This will allow for adequate ventilation of heat from the back of the freezer.
Close the freezer lid immediately after putting in any items to maintain the internal temperature of the unit.
Avoid placing the freezer near external heat sources or direct sunlight.
Do not expose this appliance to rain or excessive moisture.
Make sure the freezer is placed on a flat, level, and solid surface.
Place your appliance on a hard and level floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.
Do not turn the portable freezer upside down, on its side, or 45° or more off level.
Do not move this portable freezer without securing the lid in a closed and latched position.
Performance may vary based on operational and ambient conditions.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that
matches the rating label on the appliance. The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed
or dangling to prevent accidental injury. Following the instructions listed in this manual will assure best perfor-
mance and help prevent overloading and overheating the wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard. Never
unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged immediately. Do not use a
cord that shows cracks, abrasion or damage along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be
careful not to damage the power cord.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, OR INJURY WHEN
USING YOUR PORTABLE FREEZER, FOLLOW THESE BASIC PRECAUTIONS:
EXTENSION CORD
Because of potential safety hazards, it is strongly recommended that you do not use an extension cord with this
appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL -Listed, 3-
wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes and 115 volts. Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire, electric shock,
or death.
