This Owner's Guide provides specific operating instructions
for your model. Use the freezer only as instructed in this
Owner's Guide. Before starting the freezer, follow these
important first 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.

NOTE: The exterior walls of the freezer may become quite
warm as the compressorworks to transfer heat from the
inside. Temperaturesas muchas 30 ° F warmer than room
temperature can be expected. Forthis reason it is particu-
larly importantin hotterclimates to allow enough space for
air circulationaround yourfreezer.
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. If the
freezer is not leveled during installation, the door may be
misaligned and not close or seal properly, causing cooling,
frost, or moisture problems.

carpenter'slevel to level the freezer from front-to-back.
