APPLIANCE SAFETY Your safety and the safety of others are very important. We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages. This is the Safety Alert Symbol. The symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or injure you and others. All safety messages will follow the Safety Alert Symbol and either the word DANGER or WARNING.
• • • • In the event of any damage: o Avoid open flames and anything that creates a spark, o Disconnect from the power supply o Air the room in which the appliance is located for several minutes and o Contact the Service Department for advice. The more coolant there is in an appliance, the larger the room it should be installed in. In the event of a leakage, if the appliance is in a small room, there is the danger of combustible gases building up.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Before Using your Appliance • • • • Remove the exterior and interior packing. Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation. Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth. Install the handle on the door, if it is not already attached. (See page 8.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling.
Installing the Handle This appliance includes a handle that is not required to operate the unit. To install the handle, follow the instructions below: 1. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws on the side of door where the handle is to be installed. 2. Align the handle with the screws removed in step # 1. Tighten the screws using a Phillips head screwdriver until the handle is both flush and secured tightly against the door side. (DO NOT over-tighten as this will cause damage to the door surface.
