Complete the Assembly
1. Look the front caster wheels.
2, Insert a small piece of cardboard between the caster brake
and the floor, This will help prevent the brake from rubbing on
the floor.
You may hear water running into the drain pan during the
defrost cycle.
FREEZER U SE
3. Stand the freezer upright.
4. Replace the base grille by placing the metal clips in the
openings in the metal panel and rollingthe grille downward
until it snaps into place.
5. Unlock the wheels and move the freezer into its desired
location.
6. After the freezer is in position, relock the wheels.
7. Plug in freezer or reconnect power.
Normal Sounds
Your new freezer may make sounds that your old one didn't
make. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be
concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal Hard
surfaces, such as the floor, walls, and cabinets, can make the
sounds seem louder. The following describes the kinds of sounds
and what may be making them.
•
Your freezer is designed to run more efficiently to keep your
food items at the desired temperatures and to minimize
energy usage. The high efficiency compressor and fans may
cause your freezer to run longer than your old one. You may
also hear a pulsating or high-pitched sound from the
compressor or fans adjusting to optimize performance.
Your freezer will sound louder than regular refrigerators.This
is due to the high fan speed. This speed is necessary to keep
the freezer operating propedy in the harsher environments of
most garages.
•
You may hear a hissing noise after you close the lower
compartment door, This is due to the colder temperature of
the lower compartment and the stronger seal on the door.
•
You may hear the evaporator fan motor circulating air through
the upper and lower compartments. The fan speed may
increase as you open the doors or add warm food.
•
Rattling noises may come from the flow of refrigerant, or
items stored on top of the freezer.
•
Water dripping on the defrost heater during a defrost cycle
may cause a sizzling sound.
•
As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to
the refrigerant flowing in your freezer.
•
Contraction and expansion of the inside walls may cause a
popping noise.
•
You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the
condenser fan.
In orderto ensure proper temperature, you need to permit airflow
between the lower and upper sections. As shown in the
illustration, the majority of the cold air enters the lower
compartment through vents behind the lower control box, flows
through the lower section and is recirculated through the opening
in the top of the lower compartment. The rest of the cold air
enters the upper compartment through the vent in the upper
control box, then flows through the upper section and is
recimulated through the rear wall.
Do not block any of these vents with food packages. If the vents
are blocked, airflow will be prevented and temperature and
moisture problems may occur.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any
odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent
odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.
Using De Controls
For your convenience, your freezer controls are preset at the
factory with the upper compartment set in refrigeration mode and
the lower compartment controls set at the mid-point. When you
first install your freezer, make sure that the controls are still preset
to the factory settings.
Upper Compartment Control
The upper compartment of your freezer can function as either a
refrigerator or a freezer. The control in the upper compartment
allows you to switch it from Refrigerator Mode to Freeze mode.
Ensure that the correct mode is selected depending upon your
storage requirements.
