NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR
• Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the result of the refrigerant circulating
through the cooling coils.
• Click sound due to Temperature control dial cycles on and off.
DEFROSTING
• For most effcient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost whenever the frost becomes
1/4” thick. Never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove the frost, as it may damage the
cooling coils. (A punctured coil will void the warranty). Use only a plastic scraper. Do not use boiling
water as it may damage the unit.
• Remove frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to protect the food.
• Turn the temperature control dial to OFF position and unplug the unit. Defrosting usually takes a few
hours. To defrost faster, keep the freezer door open.
DEFROST DRAIN
Place a narrow defrost pan (not included) in front of the freezer, gently slide the defrost drain outward.
Water that has accumulated at the bottom of the freezer during defrosting will drain into the pan.
NOTE:
Monitor the defrost pan to avoid overflow.
• When defrosting is complete, wipe the interior of the freezer with a soft cloth. Plug in power cord
back into the electrical outlet.
• Reset the temperature control to the desired setting.
• Return the food into the freezer.
LEVELING YOUR FREEZER
• Your freezer has two leveling legs which are located in the front bottom corners of your freezer. After
properly placing your freezer in its final position, you can level your freezer.
• Leveling legs can be adjusted by turning them counterclockwise to raise your freezer or by turning
them clockwise to lower your freezer.

FOOD STORAGE INFORMATION
Frozen Food:
• Wipe containers before storing.
• Hot food should be allowed to cool before storing in the freezer. This will prevent unnecessary energy use.
• When storing meats, keep in the original packaging or rewrap as necessary.
• Proper freezer storage requires correct packaging. All foods must be in packages, which do not allow
the flow of air or moisture in, or out. Improper storage will result in odor transfer and will result in
the drying out of the improperly packaged food.
• Follow package or container instructions for proper storage.
• Packaging Recommendations:
Plastic containers with air tight lids
Aluminum foil
Self-sealing plastic bags
• Do not refreeze defrosted/thawed foods.
• It is recommended that the freezing date be marked on the packaging.
These are some suggestions for safe storage:
• TV Dinners 3 - 4 Months
• Fresh Shrimp, scallops, crawfish 3 - 6 Months
• Hamburger & stew meats 3 - 4 Months
• Ground Turkey, veal, pork 3 - 4 Months
