WARNING!

HOWTOCONNECTELECTRICITY

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

For personal safely, this appliance must be properly grounded.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped

with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates

with a standard 9_-prong (grounding) wall outlet

to minimize the possibili_' of electric shock

hazard fl'om this appliance.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked bv a

qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is

properly grounded.

If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it

is your personal responsibiliQ, and obligation to

have it replaced with a properly grounded S-prong

wall outlet.

The fl'eezer should always be I)lugged,, into its own

indixidual elect_-ical outlet which has a xoltage

rating that matches the rating plate.

This provides the best pe_l'o_nance and also

I)rexents oxerloading, house wi_-ing, circuits which

could cause a fire hazard fl'om oxerheated wires.

Nexer tin )ltl(* VO/li"fl'eezer by } _ onI _, ,)ullin<* the power

cord _Mwavs,,_II*_'i) )lug, fimfl) and pull straight out

fl'om the outlet.

Repair or replace immediately all power cords that

have become fl'a)'ed or otherwise damaged. Do not

rise a cord that sho_vs cracl<s or abrasion damage

ahmg its length or at either end.

When moving the fl'eezer away fl'om the wall, be

careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.
