First Steps
This Use & Care Guide provides specic
operating instructions for your model. Use
the unit only as instructed in this Use & Care
Guide. Before starting the appliance, follow
these important rst steps.
Leveling
The freezer must have all bottom corners
resting rmly on a solid oor. The oor must
be strong enough to support a fully loaded
freezer. NOTE: It is Very Important for
your freezer to be level in order to function
properly. If the freezer is not leveled during
installation, the lid may be misaligned and
not close or seal properly, causing cooling,
frost, or moisture problems.
Two adjustable foot pads, located on the left
side of the base of the unit, can be rotated
clockwise to retract and counterclockwise to
extend. If needed, add metal or wood shims
between foot pads and oor.
Cleaning
• Wash any removable parts, the freezer
interior, and exterior with mild detergent
and warm water. Wipe dry. Do not use
harsh cleaners on these surfaces.
• Do not use razor blades or other
sharp instruments, which can scratch
the appliance surface when removing
adhesive labels. Any glue left from the
tape can be removed with a mixture of
warm water and mild detergent, or touch
the residue with the sticky side of tape
already removed. Do not remove the
serial plate.
Installation
• Choose a place that is near a grounded
electrical outlet. Do Not use an extension
cord or an adapter plug.
• For the most ecient operation, the
freezer should be located where
surrounding temperatures will not exceed
110°F (43°C). Temperatures of 32°F
(0°C) and below will NOT aect freezer
operation. Additional compressor heaters
are not recommended.
• Allow space around the unit for good
air circulation. Leave a 4-inch (101.6
mm) space on all sides of the freezer for
adequate circulation.
• The freezer should be located in the
coolest area of the room, away from heat
producing appliances or heating ducts,
and out of direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature
before placing in the freezer. Overloading
the freezer forces the compressor to run
longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may
lose quality or spoil.
• Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe
containers dry before placing them in the
