power supply. It has a power cord that has a 3-prong
grounding plug that minimizes the possibility of
electrical shock. This appliance must be grounded.
Do not remove the grounding prong or modify the
power plug.
2. Do not modify the power plug. The power plug
must be accessible when the appliance is installed.
3. The appliance should not be turned off with a

•If the appliance is transported horizontally, it is
possible that the oil contained in the compressor
flows in the refrigerant circuit. It is advisable to wait at
least two hours before connecting the appliance to
allow the oil to flow back in the compressor.
•There are working parts in this product which heat
up. Always ensure that there is adequate ventilation
as a failure to do this will result in component failure
and possible loss. See installation instructions.
•Parts which heat up should not be exposed.
Wherever possible the back of the product should be
near the wall.
