GENERAL SAFETY RULES
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER
WARNING: Read all of the instructions before using this
appliance. When using this appliance, always exercise basic
safety precautions, including the following:
NOTE: If the freezer has been placed in a horizontal or tilted
position for any period of time, wait 24 hours before plugging the
unit in.
1. Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in
this use and care guide.
2. This freezer must be properly installed in accordance with the
installation instructions before it is used. See grounding
instructions in the installation section.
3. Never unplug your freezer by pulling on the power cord. Always
grasp the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.
4. Repair or replace immediately, all electric service cords that have
become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that
shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length, the plug or the
connector end.
5. Unplug your freezer before cleaning or before making any
repairs.
Note: If for any reason this product requires service, we strongly
recommend that a certified technician performs the service.
6. Do not use any electrical device or any sharp instrument in
defrosting your freezer.
7. WARNING: After your freezer is in operation, do not touch the
cold surfaces in the freezer compartment, particularly when hands
are damp or wet. Skin may adhere to these extremely cold
surfaces.
8. Do not refreeze foods, which have been thawed completely. The
United States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden
Bulletin No.69 reads: “...You may safely refreeze frozen foods that
have thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are still
cold-below 40 ℉.”
“...Thawed ground meats, poultry, or fish that have any off-odor or
off-color should not be refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed
ice cream should be discarded. If the odor or color of any food is
poor or questionable, discard it. The food may be dangerous to
eat.”
“...Even partial thawing and re-freezing reduce the eating quality of
foods,particularly fruits, vegetables,and prepared foods. The eating
quality of red meats is affected less than that of many other foods.
Use refrozen foods as soon as possible, to save as much of its
eating quality as you can.”
9. This freezer should not be recessed or built-in an enclosed
cabinet. It is designed for freestanding installation only.
10. Do not operate your freezer in the presence of explosive fumes.
Risk of 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 inside.

Installing Your Freezer
Unpacking Your Freezer
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and
all adhesive tape holding the freezer accessories inside and
outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed
materials before powering on the freezer.
Adjusting Your Freezer
· Your freezer is designed for freestanding installation only. It
should not be recessed or built-in.
· Place the freezer on a floor strong enough to support it full
loaded.
· When moving the freezer, never tilt it more than a 45-degree
angle.This could damage the compressor and the sealed system.
· If the freezer is tilted, let it stand in an upright position for at
least 24hours prior to plugging. This is to allow the refrigerant to
settle.
Proper Air Circulation
· To assure your freezer works at the maximum efficiency it was
designed for, you should install it in a location where there is
proper air circulation, plumbing and electrical connections.
The following are recommended clearances around the freezer:
Sides..........4"(102mm)
Back.....4" (102mm)
Top.........Do not block
WARNING: ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT-SHOCK HAZARD
Electrical Requirement
· Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts,15 amps
outlet) with proper grounding to power the freezer.

06 07
· Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third
grounding, in order to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a
dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the
freezer and may result in shock hazard.
Install Limitations
· Do not install your freezer in any location not properly insulated
or heated e.g. garage etc. Your freezer was not designed to operate
in temperature settings below 55°Fahrenheit.
· Select a suitable location for the freezer on a hard even surface
away from direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators, baseboard
heaters,cooking appliances etc.Any floor unevenness should be
corrected.

cooling coils. Do not use boiling water as it may damage the unit.
It is advisable to let ice and frost melt
· Remove frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to
protect the food.
· Unplug the unit. Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To
defrost faster keep the freezer door open.
· For draining, place a tray beneath the outer drain plug. Unscrew
and remove drain plug. This will let the water flow out in the tray.
When done, screw on the drain plug in place.
Note: monitor the container under the drain to avoid overflow.
· When draining is complete, wipe the interior of the freezer with
a soft cloth, plug in power cord back into the electrical outlet.
· Reset the temperature control to the desired setting.
· Return the food into the freezer.
· Do not refreeze defrosted/thawed foods.
· It is recommended that the freezing date be marked on the
packaging.
