?

Place your beverage center on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.

?

Locate the beverage center away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform properly.

?

Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.

?

Warning

?

Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized Avanti Products service center.

This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied.

For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~/60Hz electrical ground outlet with three-prong.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properl y grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.

The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevent overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end.

When moving the applianc e, be careful not to damage the power cord.

?

Extension Cord

INSTRUCCIONES DE SEGURIDAD

ATENCION

INSTRUCCIONES PARA

LA CONEXION A TIERRA

Este aparato electrodoméstico debe estar conectado a tierra. En caso de un cortocircuito eléctrico, la conexión a tierra reduce el riesgo de choque eléctrico proporcionando un cable a tier ra con una enchufe de conexión a tierra. Este enchufe debe estar conectado en un tomacorriente instalado correctamente y conectado a tierra.

ADVERTENCIA – El uso inadecuado del enchufe de conexión a tierra puede resultar en un riesgo de choque eléctrico. Consulte con un electricista o persona de reparaciones competente si no comprenden bien las instrucciones de conexión a tierra o si existe alguna duda sobre si el aparato esta conectado a tierra correctamente.

NO USE CABLES PARA

EXTENDER EL CORDON ELECTRICO DE LA UNIDAD.

Use un tomacorriente de pared exclusivo. No conecte su unidad a cables para extender el cordon eléctrico o junto a cualquier otro electrodoméstico en el mismo tomacorriente de pared.

ADVERTENCIA IMPORTANTE:

Una unidad vacía es una atracción muy peligrosa para los niños. Saque todas las juntas, pestillos, tapas o puerta de todo electrodoméstico que no esté en uso, o tome alguna medida para asegurar que no presente peligro.

INSTRUCCIONES DE INSTALACION
