IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
Before the appliance is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as
described in this manual, so read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of fire,
electrical shock or injury when using the appliance, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
• Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adapter, and do
not use an extension cord.
• It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your appliance, be provided. Use receptacles
that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
• Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire hazard or
explosion. And do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of
this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line of the unit is
disconnected.
• Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
• Unplug the appliance or disconnect the power before cleaning or servicing. Failure to do so can result
in electrical shock or death.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your appliance unless it is specifically recommended in
this material. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
• This appliance is CFC- and HFC-free and contains small quantities of Isobutane (R600a) which is
environmentally friendly, but flammable. It does not damage the ozone layer, nor does it increase the
greenhouse effect. Care must be taken during transportation and setting up of the appliance that no
parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can ignite and may damage the eyes.
• In the event of any damage:
o Avoid open flames and anything that creates a spark,
o Disconnect from the power source,
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 in which it should be installed. In the
event of a leakage, if the appliance is in a small room, there is the danger of combustible gases
building up. For every ounce of coolant, at least 325 cubic feet of room space is required. The amount
of coolant in the appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance. It is hazardous for anyone
other than an Authorized Service Person to carry out servicing or repairs to this appliance.
• Take serious care when handling, moving, and using the appliance to avoid either damaging the
refrigerant tubing or increasing the risk of a leak.
• Replacing component parts and servicing shall be done by factory-authorized service personnel so as
to minimize the risk of possible ignition due to incorrect parts or improper service.
