Before using your new product, please read these instructions to prevent any damage.
SETTING UP YOUR FREEZER
Before using your freezer
• Remove the exterior and interior packing.
• Let the freezer stand upright for approximately two hours
before connecting it to power.
• Wipe the inside.
• When moving your freezer, do not tilt it beyond 45° from
upright.
Finding a suitable location
• This freezer is designed to be free standing only, and should
not be recessed or built-in.
• Place your freezer on a floor that is strong enough to support
the freezer when it is fully loaded.
• If your freezer is located too far from your WiFi router, the
signal may be too weak for a good connection. If that’s the
case, a WiFi range extender should improve connectivity.
• Allow 7.9 inches (20 cm) of space between the sides of the
freezer and the walls, 3.9 inches (10 cm) between the back of
the freezer and the wall, and 11.8 inches (30 cm) between
the top of the freezer and the ceiling.
• If you locate the freezer next to a fixed wall, allow sufficient
space on the hinge side for the door to swing open.
• Locate the freezer away from direct sunlight and sources of
heat, such as a stove, heater, or radiator. Direct sunlight may
affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase
electrical consumption. Extremely cold temperatures may
also prevent the freezer from performing properly.
• Avoid locating the freezer in moist areas.
Leveling your freezer
• If the feet are not adjusted during installation, the doors
may not close or seal properly, causing cooling, frost, or
moisture problems.
• To level your freezer, rotate the leveling feet clockwise (to
raise) the freezer or counter-clockwise (to lower). The front
of the freezer may be slightly higher than the back.
Installing the door handle
1
Unplug the freezer.
2
Screw the extended-head screws into the door holes with
a Phillips screwdriver. Do not overtighten. The screw heads
should extend above the surface of the door.
3
Loosen the hex screws on the top and bottom of the
handle with the hex wrench (provided) so that you can fit
the handle over the extended head screws in the door.
4
Place the door handle over the heads of the screws, then
tighten the hex screws.
