IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Child Safety Destroy or recycle the carton, plastic bags, and any exterior wrapping material immediately after the freezer is unpacked. Children should NEVER use these items to play. Cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads, plastic sheets or stretch wrap may become airtight chambers, and can quickly cause suffocation. Proper Disposal of your Freezer Risk of child entrapment Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned freezers or freezers are still dangerous - even if they will sit for "just a few days". If you are getting rid of your old freezer or freezer, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents. Proper Disposal of Refrigerators/Freezers We strongly encourage responsible appliance recycling/ disposal methods. Check with your utility company or visit www.recyclemyoldfridge.com for more information on recycling your old freezer. Before you throw away your old refrigerator/ freezer: • Remove doors. • Leave shelves in place so children may not easily climb inside. • Have refrigerant removed by a qualified service technician. WARNING These guidelines must be followed to ensure that safety mechanisms in this freezer will operate properly. Electrical Information • The freezer must be plugged into its own dedicated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp, AC only electrical outlet. The power cord of the appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for your protection against electrical shock hazards. It must be plugged directly into a properly grounded three prong receptacle. The receptacle must be installed in accordance with local codes and ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician. Avoid connecting freezer to a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit. Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug. • If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by an authorized service technician to prevent any risk. • Never unplug the freezer by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly, and pull straight out from the receptacle to prevent damaging the power cord. • Unplug the freezer before cleaning and before replacing a light bulb to avoid electrical shock. • Performance may be affected if the voltage varies by 10% or more. Operating the freezer with insufficient power can damage the compressor. Such damage is not covered under your warranty. • Do not plug the unit into an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch or pull cord to prevent the freezer from being turned off accidentally. IMPORTANT To disconnect power to the unit, unplug the unit or switch the breaker that supplies power to the unit to the off position. 3
