INSTALLING YOUR FREEZER
Unpacking
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install or uninstall
appliance.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
Remove Packaging Materials
� Unpack the appliance.
� Remove the 5 spacers inserted between the door and the
appliance.
� Make sure the defrost drain plug (if provided) is correctly
positioned.
When Moving Your Freezer:
Your freezer is heavy. When moving the freezer for cleaning or
service, be sure to cover the floor with cardboard or hardboard to
avoid floor damage. Always pull the freezer straight out when
moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the freezer when trying to move
it, as floor damage could occur.
Clean Before Using
After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside
of your freezer before using it. See the “Maintenance and Care”
section.
Location Requirements
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline,
away from appliance.
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Ventilation and Clearance
� Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away
from freezer.
� Do not cover the freezer with items such as blankets, sheets,
and tablecloths. This reduces air circulation.
� Allow at least a 2.75" (7.0 cm) clearance on both sides of the
freezer and 2.75" (7.0 cm) between the back of the freezer and
the wall. Leave room above the freezer to open the lid.
Temperature
Your freezer operates most efficiently when located in an area
where the temperature is normally between 32°F (0°C) and 110°F
(43°C). Place your freezer in a location where the temperature will
fall between the low and high recommended temperatures.
Upon Moving to Final Location
Level the freezer from side to side and front
to back so that the lid will seal properly. Use
shims to level the freezer if necessary.
NOTE: It should not be necessary to remove the lid during
installation. If, for any reason, the hinges need adjustment,
contact a designated service company.
Electrical Requirements
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Before you move your freezer into its final location, it is important
to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.
Recommended Grounding Method
A 115 V, 60 Hz, AC-only, 15 A or 20 A fused, grounded electrical
supply is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only your freezer be provided. Use an outlet that cannot
be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension cord.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or
removing a light bulb, turn the temperature control to 0 (align circle
on knob with desired number), as shown, to turn off cooling, and
then disconnect the freezer from the electrical source.
Switching on the Appliance
� The appliance is factory set for optimum operation at a
temperature of 0°F (-18°C).
� Plug in the appliance.
� The green LED lights up.
