Pre-Installation
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
FREEZER LOCATION
Your freezer should be conveniently located for day-to-day use in a dry, well-ventilated room.
Do not install the freezer where the temperature will go below 0°F (-18°C) or above 110°F (43°C), because it will not maintain proper
temperatures.
Do not install the freezer in a location exposed to rain water or direct sunlight.
Be sure to install your freezer on a floor strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.
LEVEL FREEZER
Level the freezer from side to side and front to back so that the lid will seal properly. Use shims to level the freezer if necessary.
NOTE:
It should not be necessary to remove the lid during
installation. If, for some reason, the hinges need adjustment, see
instructions below.
CLEARANCES AND VENTILATION
Allow at least 2 in. (50.8 mm) clearance on both sides of the freezer and 2 in. (50.8 mm) between the back of the freezer and the wall.
Leave room above the freezer to open the lid.
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from the freezer.
Do not cover the freezer with items such as blankets, sheets, tablecloths, etc. This reduces air circulation.
NOTICE:
Do not place the freezer on any side. Doing so may
damage the freezer. If freezer has been on its side, it needs to stay
upright for 24 hours before plugging in.
