INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Choose a Location
Locate the freezer so that extension cords are not
necessary.
Your freezer operates most efficiently when located in
an area where the temperature is normally between
0°C (32°F) and 43°C (110°F).
Extreme temperatures can shorten the freezer's life.
Very high temperatures (such as in an unventilated
garage in summer) also will make your freezer run
more increasing its operating cost.
To provide adequate clearance around the freezer for
proper heat dissipation_ allow 3" of air space on all
sides of the freezer and a minimum 1" at the back.
Leave room above the freezer for the lid to open all
the way.
Illl HH
Allow room to open lid Min. 1 inch at back
Clean the freezer interior and parts to remove dust from
shipping and packaging. Clean the inside of the freezer
with a mild detergent.
Electrical Supply
The freezer should always be plugged into its own
individual 120V_ 60 HZ electrical grounded outlet which
is protected by its own 15 ampere fuse or circuit breaker.
This will help prevent overload of house wiring circuit&
which could cause a possible fire hazard by overheating
wires.
Do not plug the freezer into an outlet controlled by a
wall switch or a pull cord which may be turned off
accidentally.
If the electrical outlet you intend to use will not
accept the three-prong plug, you must have a
properly grounded three-prong outlet installed by a
qualified electrician. Do not, under any
circumstances, cut or remove the round grounding
prong from the plug.
If you are not sure the outlet is adequately grounded_
you should have a qualified electrician check the outlet.
Properly Polarized and
Grounded Outlet
Be sure to install your freezer on a floor strong
enough to support it when it is fully loaded. The
freezer must be solidly positioned on the floor if it is
to function at its best. Shims may be used to level
freezer this wherever the floor is too uneven.
If the location selected for your freezer is damp or
moist, as in some basement& place 2" x 4" boards
along its entire length to ensure adequate support.
Make sure the boards are placed directly under the
feet of the freezer.
Remove Packaging Material
Remove all shipping tape and cardboard inside and
outside the freezer. If there is adhesive residue le_ on
the freezer it may be removed with warm water and
mild detergent. Do not use a solvent such as lighter or
cleaning fluid or an abrasive cleaner which may harm
the finish.
As you remove the tape and cardboard, check for
accessory items.
Three=Pronged (Grounding) Plug
No food should be stored in the freezer until the freezer
has obtained the set operating temperature. Refer to
Cooling the Freezer First on page 5.
Do not use an extension cord.
