Safety
ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
Refer to the serial plate for correct electrical rating. The power cord of the
freezer is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for protection against
shock hazards. It must be plugged directly into its own properly grounded
three-prong receptacle, protected with a 15 amp time delay fuse or circuit
breaker. The power supply circuit must be installed in accordance with
current edition of the National Electrical Code (NFPA 70) and local codes and
ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician. Receptacles
protected by Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI)
are NOT RECOMMENDED. DO NOT USE AN
EXTENSION CORD OR AN ADAPTER PLUG.
If the voltage varies by 10 percent or more, freezer
performance may be affected. Operating the freezer
with insufficient power can damage the motor. Such
damage is not covered under the warranty. If you
suspect your household voltage is high or low, consult
your power company for testing.
To prevent the freezer from being turned off accidentally,
do not plug the unit into an outlet controlled by a wall
switch or pull cord.
Unplug the freezer before cleaning and before replacing
a light bulb to avoid electrical shock.
Do not pinch, knot, or bend the power cord in any manner.
Other Precautions
Never unplug the freezer by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug
firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle.
Turning the control to "OFF" turns off the compressor but does not disconnect
power to the light bulb or other electrical components.
