Important Safety Information
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL
REQUIREMENTS
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.
This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
An empty refrigerator/freezer is a very dangerous attraction to
children. Remove either the gasket or lid from unused appliances,
or take some other action that will guarantee it harmless.
IMPORTANT WARNING
WARNING
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric
shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the ground-
ing instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists
as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
Installation Instructions
Remove exterior and interior packaging, wipe the outside thoroughly with
a soft dry cloth and the inside with a wet, lukewarm cloth. Avoid placing
the unit in a narrow recess or near any heat source, direct sunlight, or
moisture. Let air circulate freely around the unit. Keep the rear of the
freezer 5 inches away from the wall.
1)
Locate the freezer in such a manner that extension cords are not
necessary.
2)
Due to lid and hinge arrangement, it is impossible to install your freezer
directly against the wall. The spacing on the back is essential for
maintaining proper air circulation around the freezer.
3)
Select a location with reasonable year round temperatures. We do not
recommend operating the freezer when surrounding air temperature is
below 0°C (32°F), though it will not harm the freezer to stand in any
temperature below 0°C (32°F), provided the temperature control is set
to avoid running the unit. In order to keep operating cost down, do not
place freezer near a stove, furnace, heat register or in direct sunlight. If
the place selected for your freezer is damp or moist, as in basements,
place freezer on wooden blocks (two or three 2x4’s under entire length
will ensure adequate support).

DANGER:
Risk off child entrapment.
Before you throw away your old
refrigerator or freezer:
• Take off the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb in.
DON’T WAIT DO IT NOW!
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.
