LOCATION OF PARTS
INSTALLATION

Installation of Your Unit
●
Place your unit on a floor that is strong enough to support the unit when it is fully loaded.
To level your unit, adjust the legs at the bottom.
●
Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the unit, which allows the proper
air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser.
●
Locate the unit away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator,
etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase
electrical consumption. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit to
perform improperly.
●
Avoid locating the unit in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to form
quickly on the interior surface requiring more frequent defrosting of the unit.
●
Plug the unit into an exclusive, properly installed, 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 an
authorized service center.

Electrical Connection
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.
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 standard three prong wall outlets to
minimize the possibility of electrical shock.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord
supplied.
Never use an extension cord to connect power to the unit.
Never use a two-prong grounding adapter.
Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, contact a qualified electrician to have it
replaced with a 3-prong receptacle in accordance with applicable electrical codes.
This unit requires a standard 110-volt AC, 60 Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground.
To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the unit and not left exposed
or dangling.
