IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Your safety and the safety of others are very important to us. We have
provided several important safety messages in this manual. Always read and
obey all safety messages. Serious injury or even death can result if you do not
follow these instructions. All safety messages will tell you what the potential
hazard is, how to reduce the chance of injury, and what can happen if the
instructions are not followed.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury when

using your appliance, follow these basic precautions:

 This unit is not designed to operate in enclosed spaces. When placing your

unit, make sure you allow adequate airflow on all sides.

 Use two or more people to move and install this appliance.

 Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.

 Do not remove ground prong, nor use a 3/2 adapter.

 Do not use an extension cord.
 This appliance is designed for free-standing installation only. It should not

be recessed or built in.

 Use care not to plug into outlets controlled by wall switches.

 Disconnect power before servicing.

 After service, replace all parts and panels before operating.
 Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable items in the area of this or

any appliance, as the fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.

 Use nonflammable cleaners.
 When replacing a light bulb, unplug the appliance or turn off power at the

circuit breaker or fuse box in order to avoid touching a live wire. Turning the
thermostat to OFF turns off the compressor, but does not disconnect power
to other electrical components.

 Never unplug your appliance by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the

plug firmly and pull straight out from the socket.

 Be careful not to roll over or damage the cord when moving the appliance.

 Do not pinch, knot or bend the power cord in any manner.
 Replace or repair any electric service cord that has become damaged or

frayed.
