IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Grounding type wall receptacle
Power cord with
3-prong grounded plug
Do not, under
any circumstances,
cut, remove,
or bypass the
grounding prong.
Electrical Information
• The wine cooler must be plugged into its
own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp,
AC only electrical outlet. The power cord of
the appliance is equipped with a three-
prong grounding plug for your protection
against electrical shock hazards. It must be
plugged directly into a properly grounded
three prong receptacle. The receptacle
must be installed in accordance with local
codes and ordinances. Consult a qualified
electrician. Avoid connecting refrigerator
to a Ground Fault Interruptor (GFI) circuit.
Do not use an extension cord or adapter
plug.
• If the power cord is damaged, it should
be replaced by an authorized service
technician to prevent any risk.
• Never unplug the wine cooler by pulling on
the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly,
and pull straight out from the receptacle to
prevent damaging the power cord.
• Unplug the wine cooler before cleaning
and before replacing a light bulb to avoid
electrical shock.
• Performance may be affected if the voltage
varies by 10% or more. Operating the wine
cooler with insufficient power can damage
the compressor. Such damage is not
covered under your warranty.
• Do not plug the unit into an electrical outlet
controlled by a wall switch or pull cord to
prevent the wine cooler from being turned
off accidentally.
Child Safety
• Destroy carton, plastic bags, and any
exterior wrapping material immediately
after the wine cooler is unpacked. Children
should never use these items to play.
Cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads,
plastic sheets or stretch wrap may become
airtight chambers, and can quickly cause
suffocation.
• Remove all staples from the carton.
Staples can cause severe cuts, and destroy
finishes if they come in contact with other
appliances or furniture.
• An empty, discarded wine cooler is a very
dangerous attraction to children.
• Remove the door(s) of any appliance that
is not in use, even if it is being discarded.
Proper Disposal of your Wine
Cooler
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
wine coolers are still dangerous – even if they
will sit for “just a few days”. If you are getting
rid of your old wine cooler, please follow the
instructions below to help prevent accidents.
We strongly encourage responsible appliance
recycling/disposal methods. Check with your
utility company or visit
www.recyclemyoldfridge.com for more
information on recycling your old wine cooler.
Before you throw away your old wine cooler:
• Remove doors.
• Leave shelves in place so children may not
easily climb inside.
•
Have refrigerant removed by a qualified
service technician.
