IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Electrical Information Child Safety • The Beverage Center 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 refrigerator to a Ground Fault Interruptor (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. • Destroy carton, plastic bags, and any exterior wrapping material immediately after the Beverage Center 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. • Remove all staples from the carton. Staples can cause severe cuts, and destroy finishes if they come in contact with other appliances or furniture. • An empty, discarded Beverage Center is a very dangerous attraction to children. • Remove the door(s) of any appliance that is not in use, even if it is being discarded. • Never unplug the Beverage Center 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 Beverage Center 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 Beverage Center 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 Beverage Center from being turned off accidentally. Proper Disposal of your Beverage Center Risk of child entrapment Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned Beverage Centers are still dangerous - even if they will sit for "just a few days". If you are getting rid of your old Beverage Center, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents. 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 Beverage Center. Grounding type wall receptacle Before you throw away your old Beverage Center: Do not, under any circumstances, cut, remove, or bypass the grounding prong. • Remove doors. • Leave shelves in place so children may not easily climb inside. • Have refrigerant removed by a qualified service technician.
