Electrical Information
First Steps
Inspection for Damage
Inspect the underside of the cabinet and
packaging for damage, similar to what can
be caused with a forklift. If hidden damage
is found after uncrating, immediately call the
delivery carrier and request an inspection.
Retain all packaging and crating materials
until the inspection is complete.
• Refer to the serial plate for correct
electrical rating. The power cord of the
appliance is equipped with a three-prong
grounding plug for protection against
shock hazards. It must be plugged directly
into its own properly grounded three-prong
receptacle, protected with a 15-amp time
delay fuse or circuit breaker. The receptacle
must be installed in accordance with
the local codes and ordinances. Consult
a qualied electrician. Receptacles with
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI)
are NOT RECOMMENDED. DO NOT USE AN
EXTENSION CORD OR AN ADAPTER PLUG.
• If the voltage varies by 10 percent or
more, appliance performance may be
affected. Operating the appliance with
insufcient power can damage the
compressor. Such damage is not covered
under the warranty. If you suspect your
voltage is high or low, consult your power
company for testing.
• To prevent the appliance from being turned
off accidentally, do not plug the unit into an
outlet controlled by a wall switch or pull cord.
• DO NOT pinch, knot, or bend the power
cord in any manner.
Other Precautions
Parts and Accessories
• Using a utility knife with a sharp, short
blade, cut along the perimeter of the
carton as indicated.
• Lift the carton off the product.
• Remove the package containing the
casters from the unit.

NOTE
Turning the control to “OFF” turns off the
compressor but does not disconnect power
to other electrical components.
