Electrical information
•
Plug the appliance into its own ded-
icated 115 Volt, 60 Hz., 15 Amp, AC
only electrical outlet. The power cord
of the appliance is equipped with a
3-prong grounding plug for your pro-
tection against electrical shock haz-
ards. Plug it directly into a properly
grounded 3-prong receptacle. Install
the receptacle in accordance with
local codes and ordinances. Consult a
qualified electrician. Avoid connect-
ing the appliance to a Ground Fault
Interrupter (GFI) circuit. Do not use
an extension cord or adapter plug.
•
If the power cord is damaged, an
authorized service technician should
replace it to prevent any risk.
•
Never unplug the appliance by pull-
ing on the power cord. Always grip
the plug firmly, and pull straight out
from the receptacle to prevent dam-
aging the power cord.
•
Unplug the appliance before clean-
ing and before replacing the AC LED
light bulb to avoid electrical shock.
Use only a 5-watt or less AC LED
light bulb.

Performance may be affected if the
voltage varies by 10% or more. Oper-
ating the appliance with insufficient
power can damage the compressor.
Such damage is not covered under
your warranty.

trical components. To turn off power
to your appliance you must unplug the
power cord from the electrical outlet.

IMPORTANT
CFC/HCFC Disposal
Your old appliance may have a cooling
system that used CFCs or HCFCs (chlo-
rofluorocarbons or hydrochlorofluoro-
carbons). CFCs and HCFCs are believed
to harm stratospheric ozone if released
to the atmosphere. Other refrigerants
may also cause harm to the environ-
ment if released to the atmosphere.
If you are throwing away your old
appliance, make sure the refrigerant
is removed for proper disposal by a
qualified technician. If you intentionally
release refrigerant, you may be subject
to fines and imprisonment under provi-
sions of environmental legislation.
