WARNING:
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT - SHOCK HAZARD
Electrical Requirement
•
Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet)
with proper grounding to power the freezer.
•
Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding in
order to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous practice
since it provides no effective grounding for the freezer and may result in
shock hazard.
Use of Extension Cord
•
Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety haz-ards
under certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use
only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-
slot outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension
cord must be equal to or greater than the electrical rat-ing of the
appliance.
DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORD LONGER
THAN 12 FT.
Install Limitations
•
Do not install your freezer in any location not properly insulated or
heated e.g. garage etc. Your freezer was not designed to operate in
temperature settings below 55˚
Fahrenheit.
•
Select a suitable location for the freezer on a hard even surface
away from direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators,
baseboard heaters, cooking appliances etc. Any floor
unevenness should be corrected.
