GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The electrical requirements are a 115V 60 Hz, AC only, 15A. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving
only the product be provided. The product is equipped with a 3-wire cord having a 3-prong grounding plug.
It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. The cord provided with this appliance is equipped
with a grounding wire and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed
and grounded.
Avoid the use of three prong adapters or cutting off the third grounding prong in order to accommodate a
two prong outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and
may result in shock hazard.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if:
1) The grounding instructions are not completely understood.
2) You are unsure that the appliance is properly grounded.
3) You have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions.
POWER SUPPLY CORD
1. Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions. Have a
qualified electrician or serviceman to install an outlet near the appliance.
2. If it is absolutely necessary to use longer cord sets or an extension cord, extreme care must be exercised.
a) Use only a grounding type 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle
that will accept the plug on the appliance.
b) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord must equal to or greater than the electrical
rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or
table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
NOTE - Neither Koolatron nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the product or personal injury
resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures.
WARNING - When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce
the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE PRODUCT.
NOTE - If the refrigerator/freezer has been placed in a horizontal or tilted position for any period of time,
wait 24 hours before plugging the unit in.
1. Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this use and care guide.
2. This refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the installation instructions before it is
used. See grounding instructions in the INSTALLATION section.
3. Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grasp the plug firmly and pull straight
out from the outlet.
4. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug. Return appliance to the nearest authorized
service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
5. Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or before making any repairs. NOTE - If for any reason this
product requires service, we strongly recommend that a certified technician performs the service. Compo-
nent parts shall be replaced with like components and servicing shall be done by factory authorized service
personell, so as to minimize the risk of possible ignition due to incorrect parts or improper service.
6. Do not use any electrical device or any sharp instrument in defrosting your refrigerator.
7. DANGER – Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer, take off the
doors and leave the shelves in place to that children may not easily climb inside.
8. After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment, particu-
larly when hands are damp or wet. Skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.
9. Do not refreeze foods that have been thawed completely. The United States Department of Agriculture in
Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 reads: “…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if they
still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold-below 40˚F. “…Thawed ground meats, poultry, or fish that
have any off-odor or off-color should not be refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream should be
discarded. If the odor or color of any food is poor or questionable, discard it. The food may be dangerous to
eat … Even partial thawing and re-freezing reduce the eating quality of foods, particularly fruits, vegetables,
and prepared foods. The eating quality of red meats is affected less than that of many other foods. Use
refrozen foods as soon as possible, to save as much of its eating quality as you can.
10. This refrigerator should not be recessed or built-in in an enclosed cabinet. It is designed for freestanding
installation only.
11. Do not operate your refrigerator in the presence of explosive fumes.
