INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Freezer
•
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
•
Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:
1 or more storage baskets
Set of pop-out keys (larger models only)
1 instruction manual
•
Before connecting the freezer to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours.
This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during
transportation.
•
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Installing Your Freezer
•
This appliance is designed to be free standing only, and should not be recessed or built-in.
•
Place your freezer on a floor that is strong enough to support the freezer when it is fully
loaded.
•
Allow 5 inches of space at the back and sides of the freezer, which allows proper air
circulation.
•
Be sure the freezer is absolutely level for proper operation. Check with a carpenter's level.
Place thin wood or metal shims under the freezer if necessary.
•
Locate the freezer 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. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also cause the freezer not to
perform properly.
•
Avoid locating the freezer in moist areas.
•
Plug the freezer into an exclusive, properly installed, grounded wall outlet. Do not under any
circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions
concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an
authorized service center.
•
After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, allow the unit to cool down for at least 4 hours
before placing food in the freezer.
Electrical Connection
This freezer should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord is equipped with a three-
prong plug that 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.
This freezer requires a standard 115Volt / 60Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground.
To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the freezer and not left exposed or
dangling. Never unplug the freezer by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull
straight out from the receptacle. Never handle the cord with wet hands.
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance.
