Unpacking
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install freezer.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
Remove Packaging Materials
Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning
■
on the freezer. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the
adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.
Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids,
■
or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can
damage the surface of your freezer. For more information, see the
front cover for safety instructions.
When Moving Your Freezer:
Your freezer is heavy. When moving the freezer for cleaning
or service, be sure to cover the oor with cardboard or
hardboard to avoid oor damage. Always pull the freezer
straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or "walk" the
freezer when trying to move it, as oor damage could occur.
Clean Before Using
After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside of
your freezer before using it. See the cleaning instructions in "Caring
for Your Freezer."

Location Requirements

WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from freezer.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Ventilation and Clearance
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away
■
from freezer.
Do not cover the freezer with items such as blankets, sheets,
■
tablecloths, etc. This reduces air circulation.

INSTALLING YOUR FREEZER

Allow at least a 3" (7.5 cm) clearance on both sides of the freezer
■
and 2" (5 cm) between the back of the freezer and the wall. Leave
room above the freezer to open the lid.
Temperature
Your freezer operates most efficiently when located in an area where
the temperature is normally between 32°F (0°C) and 110°F (43°C).
Place your freezer in a location where the temperature will fall
between the low and high recommended temperature.
Upon Moving to Final Location
Level the freezer from side to side and front to back so that the
■
lid will seal properly. Use shims to level the freezer if necessary.
NOTE: It should not be necessary to remove the lid during
installation. If, for any reason, the hinges need adjustment,
contact a designated service company.

Electrical Requirements

Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Before you move your freezer into its final location, it is important to
make sure you have the proper electrical connection.
Recommended grounding method
A 115 V, 60 Hz, AC only, 15 or 20 A fused, grounded electrical supply
is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only
your freezer be provided. Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a
switch. Do not use an extension cord.
