culation” for air vent locations.

as the material is removed.
• Has a large amount of material just been added to the freezer?
Adding a large amount of material warms the freezer. It can take sev-
eral hours for the freezer to return to the normal temperature.
• Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions?
See
“Using the Control.”
The door will not close completely or is difficult to open
• Are containers blocking the door?
Rearrange containers so that
they fit more tightly and take up less space.

Put the shelves and basket back into their correct positions.

Clean gaskets according to the
directions in “Freezer Care.”

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
freezer
.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
1. Remove Packaging Materials
2. Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the
freezer. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with
your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.
3. Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or
abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage
the surface of your freezer. For more information, see ‘Freezer
Safety.”
4. When Moving Your Freezer:
Your freezer is heavy. When moving the freezer for cleaning or ser-
vice, be sure to protect the floor. Always pull the freezer straight out
when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the freezer when trying to
move it, because floor damage can occur.
5. Clean Before Using
After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside of
your freezer before using it. See the cleaning instructions in “Freezer
Care.”
Key Eject Lock
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 dealer for a replacement. Always give
the model and serial number of your freezer when requesting a re-
placement key.
