IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS 

 

Before the freezer 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 

freezer, 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. 

 

It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your freezer be provided. Use 

receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain. 

 

If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent 
or a similarly-qualified person in order to avoid an electrical hazard. 

 

The  power  supply  to  the  freezer  must  match the indicated power supply on the 
nameplate. Otherwise the freezer will be damaged and the manufacturer's warranty will 
be invalidated. 

 

Do not place or use anything flammable, such as gasoline, gas cylinders, solvent-based 
cleaning fluids, near the freezer due to the risk of fire.  Substances with a high 
percentage of alcohol must be stored in tightly sealed bottles or other containers and 
should always be placed in an upright position.  

 

Do not locate the freezer in a damp or wet environment or in a position where it is likely 
to get splashed.  Such an environment would weaken the electrical insulation or expose 
live wires, possibly causing an electric shock or fire. 

 

The freezer must be disconnected from its power source if it stops working or when it is 
being cleaned or repaired. 

 

To remove the plug from the socket, grasp the plug firmly and pull it out.  Do not pull on 
the cable.  Do not connect the machine to electrical outlets while your hands are wet or 
damp. 

 

If a gas leak is discovered in the same room as the freezer, turn off the gas supply. Do 
not open the freezer door and do not remove the plug from the main electrical supply. A 
small spark resulting from such actions could cause a gas explosion. Open all of the 
doors and windows in the room to disperse the gas. 

 

Risk of child entrapment! 

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past.  Junked or abandoned 

refrigerators and freezers

 

are still dangerous, even if they will "just sit in the garage a few 

days."

 

 

Before you throw away your old appliance:

 Take off the doors.  Leave the shelves 

in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

 

 

Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the freezer.
