WARNING Never splash water directly onto the product or wash with water as short-circuit and electrical leakage could result. ?
WARNING Never put flammable or volatile substances into the unit as explosion and fire could result. ?
Use a dedicated wall outlet. Do not use extension cords or convenience receptacles as this could result in electrical shock, overheating and a fire. ??
Do not damage, modify, excessively bend, strain, twist or bundle up the power cord. Also, placing heavy objects on the power cord or squeezing it in a tight place could damage it, possibly resulting in electrical shock or fire. ?

WARNING The cooler is intended for storage and display of beverages for sale. Do not use for other purpose than intended as this could adversely affect items placed in this unit. [Intended use warning]
WARNING Never attempt to insert fingers, sticks, etc. into the cold air suction outlet as a circulation fan is rotating at high speed inside the outlet. Injury, electrical shock and improper operation could result. ⚙️
For indoor use only. Using the unit in a location exposed to rain could result in electrical leakage and electrical shock. ?️⚡
WARNING Never place heavy objects or items containing water on top of the unit. Objects could fall down and cause injury and spilled water could deteriorate the insulation of electrical components and result in electrical leakage. ⚖️
Install the unit in a location where the floor is sturdy enough to support the load of the unit. If the floor is not sturdy enough or installation is incorrectly performed, the unit could tip over and falling shelves and products could cause personal injury. ⚠️
CAUTION If you find gas leakage, please don't touch the chest freezer, and close gas and open the door for ventilation. Gas leakage could cause explosion, fire, and fire injury. ??
Store the unit in a location where it is not exposed to rain. Using a unit that has been exposed to rain could result in electrical leakage and electrical shock. ?️⚡
