Becauseof potential safety
hazardsunder certain conditions,
we strongly recommend against
use of an adapter plug. However,
if you still elect to use an adapter,
where local codes permit, a
TEMPORARYCONNECTlON may
be made to a properly grounded
two-prongwall outlet by use of a
LJLlisted adapter (Fig. 2) available
at most local hardware stores.

The larger slot in the adapter must
be aligned with the larger slot in the
wall outlet to provide proper polarity
in the connection of the power cord.
CAUTION:Attaching adapter ground
terminal to wall outlet cover screw
does not ground the appliance
unless cover screw is metal, and
not insulated, and wall outlet is
groundedthrough house wiring. You
should have the circuit checked by
a qualified electrician to make sure
the outlet is properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power
cord from the adapter, always
hold the adapter with one hand,
If this is not done, the adapter
ground terminal is very likely to
break with repeated use.
!3hou!dthe adapter ground
terminal break, DO NOT USE the
appliance until a proper ground
has been established.
of extension
Because of potential safety
hazards under certain conditions,
we strongly recommendagainst
the use of an extensioncord.
However,if you still elect to use an
extension cord, it is absolutely
necessarythat it be a UL listed
3-wire grounding type appliance
extension cord having a grounding
type plug and outlet and that the
electrical rating of the cord be 15
amperes (minimum) and 120volts.
The
freezer St'mldd always
be plugged into its own
individualelectrical outhX-
(115volt, 60 Hertz, single phaseAC.
Some models are also rated 100
volt, 50 Hertz. Check the model
and serial number plate.)This is
recommendedfor best performance
and to prevent overloading house
wiring circuits, which could cause
a possible fire hazard from
overheating wires.

Location
Your freezer should be conveniently
located for day-to-day use in a dry,
well-ventilated room.
For most efficient operation, it
should not be located where air
temperature around the freezer is
ever higher than 1lO°F.or colder
than 32°F.
Be sure to install your freezer on a
floor strong enough to support it
when it is fully loaded.
