APPLIANCE SAFETY 

 

Your safety and the safety of others are very important. 

 

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read 
and obey all safety messages. 
 
  

This is the Safety Alert Symbol. The symbol alerts you to potential hazards that 
can kill or injure you and others. All safety messages will follow the Safety 
Alert Symbol and either the words "DANGER" or "WARNING". 

 

                                                                                           
DANGER means that failure to heed this safety 
statement may result in severe personal injury or 
death. 
                                                                                            
WARNING means that failure to heed this safety 
statement may result in extensive product 
damage, serious personal injury, or death. 

 
All safety messages will alert you about the potential hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, 
and let you know what can happen if the instructions are not followed. 
 

 

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS 

 

Before the appliance is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as  
described in this manual, so read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of fire,  
electrical shock or injury when using the appliance, follow basic precautions,  
including the following: 

 
 
 
 

 

Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet, do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adapter, and do 
not use an extension cord. 

 

Replace all panels before operating. 

 

It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your appliance be provided. Use receptacles 
that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain. 

 

Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion. 
And do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any 
other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion. 

 

Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line of the unit is 
disconnected. 

 

Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet. 

 

Unplug the appliance or disconnect power before cleaning or servicing. Failure to do so can result in 
electrical shock or death. 

 

Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your appliance unless it is specifically recommended in 
this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician. 

 

This appliance is CFC- and HFC-free and contains a small quantity of Isobutane (R600a) which is 
environmentally friendly, but flammable. It does not damage the ozone layer, nor does it increase the 
greenhouse effect. Care must be taken during transportation and setting up of the appliance that no 
parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can ignite and may damage the eyes.
