WARNING

 

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, 

or injury when using your freezer, follow 

these basic precautions: 

 

  Read all instructions before using the freezer. 

 

DANGER or WARNING:

  Risk of child entrapment.   

        To avoid the possibility of child entrapment, please take the following precautions:   

             Remove the freezer top and DO NOT remove the internal basket. 

 

Before you throw away your old freezer: 

Take off the top.  Leave the basket in 

place so that children may not easily climb inside. 

  Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the freezer. 

 

Refrigerants: 

All refrigeration products contain refrigerants, which under the 

guidelines of federal law must be removed before disposal of product.  It is the 

consumer’s responsibility to comply with federal and local regulations when 

disposing of this product.

 

  Never clean freezer parts with flammable fluids.  The fumes can create a fire hazard 

or explosion. 

  Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity 

of this or any other freezer.  The fumes can create a fire hazard or an explosion.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 

 

 

Before Using Your Freezer 

  Remove the exterior and interior packing. 
  Check to be sure you have all of the following parts: 

 

1 Storage Basket 

 

 

1 Ice Shovel 

 

 

1 Instruction Manual 

 

  Before connecting the freezer to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4 hours. 

This  will  reduce  the  possibility  of  a  malfunction  in  the  cooling  system  from  improper  handling 

during transportation. 

  Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth. (Cleaning instruction on page 7) 

 

Installing Your Freezer 

  This

 

appliance 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.  

  Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the freezer, which allows the proper air 

ventilation. Adjust the feet to keep the freezer level. 

  Locate the freezer away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). 

Direct  sunlight  may  affect  the  acrylic  coating  and  heat  sources  may  increase  electrical 

consumption.  Ambient temperature below 50°F or above 85°F will hinder the performance of this 

appliance.  

This unit is not designed for use in a garage or any other outside installation.

 

  Avoid locating the freezer in moist areas.
