IMPORTANT GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The compact refrigerator must be grounded.
In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock
by providing an escape wire for the electric
current. This appliance is equipped with a
cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded. If the outlet is a standard 2-
prong wall outlet, it is your personal
responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong
wall outlet. Do not under any
circumstances cut or remove the third
(ground) prong from the power cord.
WARNING-Improper use of grounding
can result in a risk of electric shock.
