Installing Your Freezer
Unpacking Your Freezer
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all
adhesive tape holding the freezer accessories inside and outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed
materials before powering on the freezer.
Adjusting Your Freezer
Your freezer is designed for freestanding installation only. It should
•
not be recessed or built-in.
Place the freezer on a floor strong enough to support it full loaded.
•
When moving the freezer, never tilt it more than a 45-degree
•
angle.This could damage the compressor and the sealed system.
If the freezer is tilted, let it stand in an upright position for at least
•
24hours prior to plugging. This is to allow the refrigerant to settle.
Proper Air Circulation
To assure your freezer works at the maximum efficiency it was
designed for, you should install it in a location where there is proper
air circulation, plumbing and electrical connections. The following are
recommended clearances around the freezer:
Sides..........4"(102mm)
Back.....4" (102mm)
