IMPORTANT — 

Please Read and Follow

• Make sure that incoming voltage is the same as

unit rating. An electric rating plate specifying
voltage, frequency, wattage, amperage, and
phase is attached to the product.

• To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury

to persons, installation work and electrical wiring
must be done by a qualified technician in
accordance with all applicable codes and
standards, including fire-rated construction.

• The installer should leave these instructions with

the consumer who should retain them for local
inspector’s use and for future reference.

It is your responsibility to:
• Comply with installation specifications and

dimensions.

• Properly install unit.
• Remove any moldings or decorative panels that

prevent the unit from being serviced.

• Make sure that you have these materials (not

provided with your unit), which are necessary for
proper installation:

• 1/4” (6 mm) copper tubing with shutoff valve
• 6 – #8 x 3” (7.6 cm) wood screws (longer

screws may be required)

• 1– Saddle valve (DO NOT use self-piercing

feature of the valve)

• Assure that floor will support unit, door panels

and contents (approximately 1200 pounds 
[540 kg]).

• Provide a properly grounded electrical outlet.
• Assure that location will permit appliance doors

to open a minimum of 90˚.

We have provided many important safety
messages in this manual and on your
appliance. ALWAYS read and obey all 
safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol. This
symbol alerts you to hazards that
can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will be preceded 
by the safety alert symbol and the word
“DANGER” or “WARNING.” 
These words mean:

DANGER

All safety messages will identify the 

hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance

of injury, and tell you what can happen if 

the instructions are not followed.
