Safety Information
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD Flammable Refrigerant
This appliance contains isobutane refrigerant, R600a, a natural gas with high environmental compatibility. However, it is also
combustible. Adhere to the warnings below to reduce the risk of injury or property damage.
1. When handling, installing and operating the appliance, care should be taken to avoid damage to the refrigerant tubing.
2. Service shall only be performed by authorized service personnel. Use only manufacturer-authorized service parts.
3. Dispose of the appliance in accordance with Federal and Local Regulations. The ammable refrigerant and insulation material used
require special disposal procedures. Contact your local authorities for the environmentally safe disposal of your appliance.
4. Keep ventilation openings in the appliance enclosures or in the built-in structure clear of obstruction.
5. Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process.
6. Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
7. Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartment of the appliance.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Keep ammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from freezer. Failure to do so can result in re, explosion, or death.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
□Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
□Do not remove the ground prong.
□Do not use an adapter.
□Do not use an extension cord.
□Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, re, or electrical shock.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. For personal safety, this appliance must
be properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet
to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualied electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly
grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
The freezer should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating plate.
A 115 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving
only your freezer be provided. Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension cord. This provides the best
performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a re hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug your freezer by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug rmly and pull straight out from the outlet.
Immediately discontinue use of a damaged supply cord. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualied service
professional with an authorized service part from the manufacturer.
When moving the freezer away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.

Before You Throw Away Your Old Freezer:
□Take off the freezer lid.
□Leave the baskets in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

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 oor 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 ammable 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.
