-
The Iargerslot inthe ada~ter must be
aligned-with the larger slot in the wall
receptacle to provide proper polarity
in the connection of the power cord.
CAUTION: Attaching adapter
ground terminal to wall receptacle
cover screw does not ground the
appliance unless cover screw is
metal, and not insulated, and wall
receptacle is grounded through
house wiring. Customer should
have the circuit checked by aqual-
ified electrician to make sure the
receptacle is properly grounded.
When disconnectingthe power
cordfrom the adapter,always hold
the adapter with one hand. If this
is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break
with repeated use.
Should the adapter ground
terminal break, DO NOT USE the
appliance until a proper ground
hasagain been established.

Freezer Installation
Location
For most efficient operation, your
freezer should not be located where
air temperature around the freezer
is ever higher than 1lO° F,or colder
than 32°17
Upright freezers take approxi-
mate y half the floor space required
for chest type freezers and there-
fore can more readily be placed in
your kitchen. A location next to the
refrigerator often is ideal, with the
refrigerator on the side nearer the
sink and range.
Be sure to install your freezer on
a floor strong enough to support it
when it is fuily loaded.
Also see Energy-Saving Tips
regarding location.
Allow 4
incheson top and3 inches
at sides and back
for proper air
circulation.

Legs at the front corners of the
freezer should beset so the freezer
isfirmly positioned on the floor, and
the front is raised just enough so
