Appliance Setup
This Use & Care Guide provides specific
operating instructions for your model. Use
the unit only as instructed in this Use & Care
Guide. Before starting the appliance, follow
these important setup steps.
Installation
• Choose a place that is near a grounded
electrical outlet. Do Not use an extension
cord or an adapter plug.
• For the most efficient 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 affect freezer
operation. Additional compressor heaters
are not recommended.
• Allow space around the unit for good air
circulation. Leave a 1-inch (25.4 mm)
space at the back and on top and a
3/8-inch (9.5 mm) space on the sides of
the appliance for adequate circulation.
Leveling
The freezer must have all bottom corners
resting firmly on a solid floor that is strong
enough to support a fully loaded freezer.
It is Very Important for the appliance to be
level in order to function properly. If not
level, the door may be misaligned and not
close or seal properly, causing cooling,
frost, or moisture problems.
The appliance is equipped with adjustable
front leveling feet. Turn the foot clockwise
to raise the side of the unit. Turn counter-
clockwise to lower the side. Adjust each side
as needed until front of unit is level. Also
adjust so that front of the unit is 1/4˝ higher
than back, so that door stays closed.
Door Handle Installation
• Locate and remove the handle brace
caps and four handle attachment
flathead screws from the accessory bag.
• Remove the four roundhead screws from
the left edge of the appliance door.
• Use the four flathead screws to attach
the handle braces to the door edge.
• Insert the two tabs on the narrow end of
the cap into the slots on the brace, and
then snap the wide end down into place.
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 ap-
pliance 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 re-
moved. Do not remove the serial plate.
