and is not to be used in installations that are open/
exposed to natural elements.
This unit is designed to operate between 50°F (10°C) and

WARNING
!
SHOCK HAZARD — Electrical Grounding
Required. Never attempt to repair or perform
maintenance on the unit until the electricity has
been disconnected.
Never remove the round grounding prong from
the plug and never use a two-prong grounding
adapter.
Altering, cutting or removing power cord,
removing power plug, or direct wiring can cause
serious injury, fire, loss of property and/or life,
and will void the warranty.
Never use an extension cord to connect power to
the unit.
Always keep your working area dry.
If the detachable type electric supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by an equivalent cord available from the
manufacturer or its service agent.
NOTICE
Electrical installation must observe all state and
local codes. This unit requires connection to a
grounded (three-prong), polarized receptacle
that has been placed by a qualified electrician.
The unit requires a grounded and polarized 230 VAC,
50 Hz, 8A power supply (normal household current). An
individual, properly grounded branch circuit or circuit
breaker is recommended. A GFCI (ground fault circuit
interrupter) is usually not required for fixed location
appliances and is not recommended for your unit because
it could be prone to nuisance tripping. However, be sure
to consult your local codes.
See CUTOUT DIMENSIONS for recommended receptacle
location.

Cutout Dimensions
PREPARE SITE
Your U-Line product has been designed exclusively for a
built-in installation. When built-in, your unit does not
require additional air space for top, sides, or rear.
However, the front grille (plinth strip/base fascia) must
NOT be obstructed.
The product is designed and manufactured for seamless
integration in the specified cutout opening shown, which
requires precise measurements. The opening must be
square and plumb front to back. Although not required,
you may choose to increase the overall cutout width for
ease of installation.
The Modular 3000 Series units are engineered with a
variety of adjustment features to help ensure a seamless
installation. Adjustable doors, leveling legs and grille will
assist in fine tuning the installation.
All 3000 Series models fully integrate into overlay/face
frame, inset or European/frameless cabinet styles.
CAUTION
!
Unit can NOT be installed behind a closed cabinet
door.
