IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING
ELECTRICAL RATING:
The “serial rating plate”indicates the voltage and frequency the
freezer is designed for.
Due to possible variations in line voltage (caused by overloading of circuits), it is advisable to install a
separate fuse circuit from the meter panel. This will help to eliminate current fluctuation which might cause
motor trouble.
INSTALLATION
POINTS TO CONSIDER WHEN LOCATING YOUR FREEZER:
1)
Locate the freezer in such a manner that extension cords are not necessary.
2)
Due to lid and hinge arrangement, it is impossible to install your freezer directly against the wall. The
spacing on the back is essential for maintaining proper air circulation around the freezer.
3)
Select a location with reasonable year round temperatures. We do not recommend operating the freezer
when surrounding air temperature is below 0°C (32°F), though it will not harm the freezer to stand in any
temperature below 0°C (32°F), provided the temperature control is set to avoid running the unit. In order to
keep operating cost down, do not place freezer near a stove, furnace, heat register or in direct sunlight. If the
place selected for your freezer is damp or moist, as in basements, place freezer on wooden blocks (two or
three 2x4’s under entire length will ensure adequate support).
GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
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.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.
Use
an exclusive wall outlet. Do not connect your freezer to extension cords or together with any other appliance in
the same wall outlet. Do not splice the cord.
IMPORTANT WARNING:
An empty freezer is a very dangerous attraction to children. Remove either the
gasket or lid from unused appliances, or take some other action that will guarantee it harmless.
DON’T WAIT! DO IT NOW!
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current.
