the appliance by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the
receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have 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 appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.
Extension Cord
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do not
use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord it is absolutely
necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding
type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.
OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE
Turning On the Unit
Connect the unit to a power supply to turn it on. Be sure the door is closed. After half an hour, the
temperature inside the cabinet should have cooled down; if so, the unit is operating normally.
CAUTION
If power is disconnected, do not try to restart the unit within 5 minutes of the power disconnect.
Do not make holes through the walls of the unit in order to mount other items.
Avoid splashing water on the unit.
Do not store medical or pharmaceutical products in the unit.
Keep the keys of the door lock out of the reach of children.
Storing Items in the Unit
The shelves can be adjusted to suit your needs. (See
Shelves
below.)
Avoid putting a large number of items into the unit at one time. Leave some space around the items to
allow an unimpeded flow of cold air.
To lower energy consumption and prolong the life of the compressor, avoid putting warm food into the
unit. Only foods at room temperature or already frozen should be put into the freezer.
