Remove exterior and interior packings, wipe the outside thoroughly with a soft dry cloth and the inside with a

wet, lukewarm cloth. Avoid placing the cabinet in a narrow recess or near any heat source, direct sunlight, or

moisture. Let air circulate freely around the cabinet. Keep the rear of the freezer 5 inches away from the wall.

Location:

1) 

Select a place with a strong, level floor.

2)

Allow 5 inches of space between the back of the freezer and any adjacent wall.

3)

Avoid direct sunlight and heat. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating. Heat sources nearby will

cause higher electricity consumption.

4)

Avoid very moist places. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to form very quickly on the 

evaporator, and your freezer will have to be defrosted more frequently.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

GROUNDING

INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION

1

OPERATION

To avoid vibration, the cabinet must be set level.This is accomplished by adjusting the
(2) front leveling legs located under the freezer cabinet. To start the freezer, turn the
temperature control to the position corresponding to the desired cooling.

0 = No Cooling

1= Minimum Cooling

3, 4 = Medium Cooling

MAX= Maximum Cooling

The freezer temperature will vary depending on the quantity of the food stored and
on the frequency with which the door is opened.

This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be 

connected to an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING:

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified 

electrician of serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to

whether the appliance is properly grounded. 

DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.

Use an exclusive wall outlet; Do not connect your freezer to extension cords, or together with any other 

appliance in the same wall outlet. Do not splice the cord. 

IMPORTANT WARNING:

An empty freezer is a very dangerous attraction to children. Remove either the 

gasket, latches, lids, or doors from unused appliances, or take some other action that will gaurantee it harmless.

DON’T WAIT! DO IT NOW!

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding

reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current.

DEFROSTING

INSTRUCTIONS

Defrost and clean your freezer when frost has built up to about 1 1/4”(6mm) thickness. Complete defrosting

and cleaning should be done at least once a year. In high humidity areas, a freezer may need more frequent

defrosting and cleaning.

Place pans of hot water in freezer with door open to speed melting. Directing air from an electric fan into

freezer will also help. Do not place fan in freezer.

4)

Remove frost.

5) 

Wipe water from walls and bottom of freezer with a towel or sponge.

6) 

Wash inside walls.
