ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the grounding prong from the power cord. For safety this 

appliance must be properly grounded at all times.

•  The power cord of this cooler is equipped with a grounding plug which mates with a standard grounding 

wall outlet to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard.

•  If the outlet is a standard 2-prong outlet, it must be replaced with the properly grounded wall outlet. NEVER 

USE AN ADAPTER PLUG!

•  Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly 

grounded. Check the incoming voltage with a voltmeter.

•  DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORDS. The use of extension cords to connect the cooler will void warranty. 

The unit must be close enough to the electrical supply so that extension cords are never used.

•  The cooler should always be plugged into its own dedicated circuit with a voltage rating that matches the 

rating plate. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading wiring circuits which could 

become a fire hazard from overheated wires.

•  Never unplug your cooler by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from 

the outlet.

•  Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use 

a power cord that has cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either of its ends.

•  When removing the cooler away from the wall be careful not to run over or damage the power cord.

•  When the cooler is installed or used,all the packaging (including carton and plastic wrap) should be 

removed.

•  Keep the cooler stable to avoid vibration and noise.

•  The cooler should be installed in a place with good ventilation and a space of at least 4” should be allowed 

between the surrounding walls and the cabinet wall for air circulation.

•  Unit should be placed far from any heating source to avoid decrease of refrigeration efficiency.

•  Install the cooler in a dry place to prevent rust from forming on the compartment body, which may affect the 

electrical insulation.

Service must only be performed by an authorized service representative, please call Omcan for a local 

service company.

NOTE:

 Wiring diagram can be referenced by removing the front louvered grill, and looking on the inside 

cabinet wall electrical supply so that extension cords are never used.

CAUTION

•  The cooler must be grounded correctly,never with a heating pipe and coal gas pipe.
