This freezer must be properly installed in accordance
with the installation instructions before it is used. See
grounding instructions on page 6.
Never unplug your freezer by pulling on the power
cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull it straight
out from the outlet. Never use an extension cord.
Unplug your freezer before cleaning, changing a
lightbulb or making any repairs.
NOTE:
We recommend that all repairs be performed
by a qualified technician.
Turning the temperature control knob to the off
position does not remove power to the electrical
circuit.
Immediately replace all electrical service cords that
have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not
use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either the plug or connector end.
After your freezer is in operation, do not touch the
cold surfaces, particularly when hands are damp or
wet. Skin may adhere to these extremely cold
surfaces.
The Key Eject Lock (Some Models)
If your freezer is equipped with a lock, it can help reduce
the hazard of child entrapment.
NOTE:
Be sure to keep your key in a safe location out of
the reach of children.
To lock or unlock the freezer, you must hold the key in the
lock while turning. The lock is spring loaded so the key
cannot be left in the lock.
If the key is lost, contact your nearest Sears outlet for a
replacement. Always give the complete model and serial
number of your freezer when requesting a replacement
key.
Protect Children
Children may suffocate if they crawl into a freezer to hide
or play.
Remove the door of a freezer not in use, even if you plan
to discard the freezer. Many communities have laws
requiring you to take this safety precaution.
Destroy the carton and any plastic bags after the freezer
is unpacked. Children might use them for play. Cartons
covered with bedspreads or plastic sheets can become
airtight chambers.
Remove all staples from the carton. Staples can cause
severe cuts to people or destroy finishes.
Do not operate your freezer in the presence of
explosive fumes.
Use this appliance only for its intended purposes as
described in this Use and Care Book.
