Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power 
cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized service center. 

 

 

may increase electrical consumption. Extremely cold ambient temperatures 
may also affect the unit's performance. 

 

Avoid locating the unit in moist areas. 

 

Plug the unit into an exclusive, properly installed and grounded wall outlet. Do 
not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the 
power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be 
directed toward a certified electrician or authorized service center. 

 

After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, allow the unit to cool down for 2 
to 3 hours before placing food inside. 

 

Electrical Connection: 

 
 
 
 

This unit should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this unit 
is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with a standard three-prong wall 
outlet to minimize the possibility of electrical shock. 

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the 
power cord supplied. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly 
grounded. 

This unit requires a standard 115-volt AC/60Hz electrical outlet with three-prong 
ground. Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to 
make sure the outlet is properly grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet 
is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a 
properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. 

To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the unit and not 
left exposed or dangling. 

The unit should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which 
has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides 
the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits that 
could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires. Never unplug the unit by pulling 
on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the 
receptacle. Repair or replace immediately any power cord that has become 
frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion 
damage along its length or at either end. When moving the unit, be careful not to 
damage the power cord. 

 

Extension Cord: 

Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, 
have a qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the 
appliance.
