Electrical Connection
CAUTION:
Be sure that the power supply is the
same voltage that is specified on the refrigerator/
freezer’s data plate.
CAUTION:
DO NOT REMOVE, under any
circumstance, the grounding prongs from the
3-prong power cord supplied with all units.
CAUTION:
DO NOT USE electrical extension
cords that may result in voltage loss and possible
hazardous operation.
WARNING:
For personal safety and trouble-free
operation, this unit must be properly grounded
before it is used. Failure to ground the equipment
may cause personal injury or damage to the
equipment. Always conform to the National
Electrical Code and local codes. Do not connect
unit to already overloaded power lines.
Note:
The unit should always be connected to a dedicated
power source.
The frequency and nominal voltage requirements these unit
are specified on the data plate, which is located on the upper
left side of the interior. Only plug the unit into a power source
that meets these requirements. Low line voltage is often the
cause of service complaints. With the unit running, check that
the line voltage is within ±10% of that specified on the data
plate.
The power cord of these unit is equipped with a three prong
(grounding) plug (NEMA 5-15P). This plug mates with a
standard three prong (grounding) wall receptacle (NEMA
5-15R) to minimize the potential of an electrical shock hazard.
The customer should have the wall receptacle and circuit
checked by a qualified electrician to verify the receptacle is
properly grounded and is connected to a minimum 15 Amps
service. If you are not sure about the outlet, you should
contact a qualified electrician for assistance.
