Finding A Suitable Location; Leveling Your Freezer - Insignia NS-UZ14XSS8 User Manual

Finding a suitable location

• Place your freezer on a floor that is strong enough to support the freezer
when it is fully loaded.
• This freezer is designed to be free standing only, and should not be
recessed or built-in.
• Allow 7.9 inches (20 cm) of space between the sides of the freezer and the
walls, 3.9 inches (10 cm) between the back of the freezer and the wall, and
11.8 inches (30 cm) between the top of the freezer and the ceiling. This
allows for proper air ventilation. Adjust the feet to keep the freezer level.
• If you locate the freezer next to a fixed wall, allow sufficient space on the
hinge side for the door to swing open.
• Locate the freezer away from direct sunlight and sources of heat, such as a
stove, heater, or radiator. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and
heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extremely cold
temperatures may also prevent the freezer from performing properly.
• Avoid locating the freezer in moist areas, or in extremely hot or cold areas.

Leveling your freezer

• It is very important for the freezer to be level. If the freezer is not leveled
during installation, the doors may not close or seal properly, causing
cooling, frost, or moisture problems.
• To level your freezer, rotate the leveling feet clockwise (to raise) the freezer
or counter-clockwise (to lower).

Note
Have someone push against the top of the freezer to help take
some weight off the leveling foot, making it easier to adjust.
