water or direct sunlight.
Be sure to install your freezer on a floor strong enough

during installation. If, for some reason, the hinges need
adjustment, call a professional service company..
Do not cover the freezer with items such as blankets,
sheets, tablecloths, etc. This reduces air circulation.

loosest at this position.)
