SAFETY AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING
Before the appliance is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as described in this manual, so read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury when using the appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:

• Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet, do not remove prong, do not use an adapter and do not use an extension cord.
• Replace all panels before operating.
• It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your appliance be provided. Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
• Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Do not store or use gasoline and other flammable vapors / liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
• Unplug the appliance or disconnect power before cleaning or servicing. Failure to do so can result in electrical shock or death.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part or your appliance unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

CAUTION

1. Stainless steel exposed to chlorine gas and moisture – such as areas with spas or swimming pools – may experience discoloration. The discoloration from chlorine gas is normal.
2. NEVER USE CHLORIDE TO CLEAN STAINLESS STEEL.

POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of the appliance if the number of times the drawer is opened is minimized. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, take proper steps to protect the contents.

VACATION TIME
Short Vacations: Leave the appliance operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
Long Vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn off the appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the drawer open slightly, blocking it open if necessary.

MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE

• Remove all items.
• Securely tape down all loose items inside your appliance.
• Turn the adjustable legs up to the base to avoid damage.
• Tape the drawers shut.
• Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect the outside of the appliance with a blanket or similar item.

GENERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

• The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room or outdoor location, away from heat-producing appliances and out of direct sunlight.
• Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated.
• Never cover air vents.
• Do not keep the drawer open any longer than necessary.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in the unit. Overloading the unit forces the compressor to run longer.
• Be sure to wrap foods properly and wipe containers dry when placing them in the unit. This cuts down on frost buildup inside the unit.
• Unit drawers should not be lined with
• aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling.
• Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the unit less efficient.
• Organized and labeled stored items reduce drawer openings and extended searches.
• Remove as many items as needed at one time and close the drawer as soon as possible.
