INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Freezer
1. Remove the exterior and interior packing.
2. CAUTION: After unpacking you MUST allow this appliance to stand upright for at least 2 hours to allow
the lubricant and refrigerant to drain back into the compressor and stabilize. Failure to do so may
adversely affect performance and the lifetime of this unit.
3. Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
4. Install the handle on the left side of the door.
Installation of Your Freezer
This appliance is designed for free standing or built-in (fully recessed) installation.
Place your freezer on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To level your
freezer, adjust the front leveling legs.
For free-standing installation, 5” (127mm) of space between the back and sides of the unit, and 4”
(102mm) at the top, are suggested, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the compressor and
condenser. Even for built-in installation, it is a must to keep ¼” (6.35mm) space on each side and at
the top and 2” (51mm) at the rear. If the unit has an air vent at the front, take care that it is never
covered or blocked in any way.
Locate the freezer 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 unit not to perform properly.
Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
Plug the freezer into an exclusive, properly installed-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 or authorized product service center.
Reversing the Door Swing of the Freezer
This appliance has the capability of the door opening from either the left or right side. The unit is delivered
to you with the door opening from the left side. Should you desire to reverse the opening direction, please
follow the instructions below. To make the reversal, you will find two hardware pieces in a plastic bag inside
the appliance: the top left hinge and the bottom left hinge. The bottom support bracket is used for both
sides.
1. Carefully lay the appliance on its back. Use cushioning to protect the floor and appliance.
2. Using a Philips screwdriver, remove the two screws and bottom right hinge beneath the door. Keep the
hinge in a safe place in case you need to reverse the door again in the future.
3. Carefully slide the door off and place it on a padded surface.
4. Interchange the plastic shaft sleeves at the top of the door.
5. Remove the bottom support bracket from the right side.
6. Remove the top right hinge and keep in a safe place in case you want to reverse the door in the future.
7. Remove the screws from the top left and transfer to the right.
8. Install the top left hinge.
9. Install the bottom left hinge to the door. Do not over-tighten the screw.
10. Place the door back on the appliance, lining up the top hinge.
11. Install the bottom support bracket.
