IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Child Safety
• Destroy carton, plastic bags, and any exterior wrap-
ping material immediately after the wine cooler is
unpacked. Children should never use these items to
play. Cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads, plastic
sheets or stretch wrap may become airtight chambers,
and can quickly cause suffocation.
• An empty, discarded freezer is a very dangerous at-
traction to children.
• Remove the door(s) of any appliance that is not in
use, even if it is being discarded.
WARNING
Electrical Information
These guidelines must be followed to ensure that
safety mechanisms in the design of this freezer will
operate properly.
• Refer to the serial plate for correct electrical rating.
The power cord of the appliance is equipped with a
three-prong grounding plug for your protection against
electrical shock hazards. It must be plugged directly
into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle, pro-
tected with a 15 amp time delay fuse or circuit break-
er. The receptacle must be installed in accordance with
the local codes and ordinances. Consult a qualied
electrician. Receptacles protected by Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are NOT RECOMMENDED.
Do NOT use an extension cord or adapter plug.
• If voltage varies by 10 percent or more, freezer perfor-
mance may be affected. Operating the freezer with in-
sufcient power can damage the motor. Such damage
is not covered under the warranty. If you suspect your
household voltage is high or low, consult your power
company for testing.
• To prevent the freezer from being turned off acciden-
tally, do not plug unit into an outlet controlled by a
wall switch or pull cord.
• Do not pinch, knot, or bend power cord in any manner.
WARNING
Avoid re hazard or electric shock. Do not use an
extension cord or an adapter plug. Do not remove any
prong from power cord.
WARNING
Please read all safety instructions before using your
new appliance.
For Your Safety

explosive fumes.
• Remove and discard any spacers used to secure the
