Before starting the freezer, follow these important first steps:
Installation
• Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical outlet.
• 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.
• Aflowspacearoundtheun/tforgoodaircirculation. Leavea3inch(75mm)space
on all sides of the freezer for adequate circulation.
Leveling
The freezer must have all bottom corners resting firmly on a solid floor. The floor
must be strong enough to support a fully loaded freezer. NOTE: it is VERY
iMPORTANT for your freezer to be level in order to function properly. Ifthe freezer
is not leveled during installatioin, the door may be misaligned and not close or seal
properly, causing cooling, frost, or moisture problems.
To Level Upright UnBt:
After discarding crating screws and wood base, use a carpenter's level to level the
freezer from frontztozback. Adjust the plastic leveling feet infront, 1½bubble higher,
so that the door closes easily when left halfl_ay open.
To Level Chest Unit:
If needed, add metal or wood shims between feet pads and floor.

and warm water. Wipe dry. DO NOT USE HARSH CLEANERS ON THESE
SURFACES.

appliance surface when removing adhesive labels. Any glue left from the tape
