INSTALLATION
Before Using the Freezer
• Remove the exterior and interior packing.
• Locate the appliance 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 appliance in moist areas.
• 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 the Freezer
• The appliance is designed for built-in or recessed or free-standing
installation for indoor use. If built-in, the unit can be installed under the
counter in a 24-inch-wide opening.
• Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it
is fully loaded. To level the unit, adjust the leveling legs.
• For free standing installation, 4 inches (102mm) of space at the top, back
and sides of the unit are suggested, which allows the proper air circulation
to cool the compressor and condenser. Even for built-in installation, you
should provide the following clearances to ensure the best operation and
proper ventilation: at least 3/16” on both sides, 2” at the rear and 1/16” at
the top. Take care that the air vent at the front of the appliance is never
covered or blocked in any way.
• NOTE: Do not install this appliance in a location where the temperature
will fall below 44°F (7°C). For best performance, do not install the
appliance behind a cabinet door or block the base grille.
• Plug the appliance into an exclusive, properly 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 2 to 3 hours before placing items inside the cabinet.
Electrical Connection
• This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power
cord is equipped with a three-pin plug which mates with standard three
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 service center.
