Electrical Requirements; Use Of Extension Cords; Install Limitations - Haier HBE18 Manual Del Usuario

Electrical Requirement
• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps out-
let) with proper grounding to power the refrigerator.
• Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding
in order to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous prac-
tice since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and
may result in shock hazard.

Use of Extension Cords

• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety haz-
ards under certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension
cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding
plug and a 3-slot outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating
of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the electrical
rating of the
appliance.

Install Limitations

• Do not install your refrigerator in any location not properly insulated
or heated e.g. garage etc. Your refrigerator was not designed to
operate in temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit.
• Select a suitable location for the refrigerator on a hard even surface
away from direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators, baseboard
heaters, cooking appliances etc. Any floor unevenness should be
corrected with the leveling legs located on the front bottom corners of
the refrigerator.
