IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS 

Before the freezer is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as described in this manual, so 

read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury when using this 

appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following: 



Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet, do not remove grounding prong, do not use an adaptor and 

do not use an extension cord. 



It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your freezer, be provided. Use receptacles 

that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain. 



Never clean freezer parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire hazard or 

explosion. Also, do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity 

of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion. 



Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, unplug the freezer or disconnect 

power. Failure to do so can result in electrical shock or death. 



Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet. 



If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or 

similarly qualified persons in order to avoid hazard. 



Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your freezer unless it is specifically recommended 

in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician. 



DANGER:   Risk of child entrapment!

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned appliances 

are still dangerous, even if they will "just sit in the garage a few days." 



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. 



Never allow children to operate, play with or crawl inside the freezer. 



Use two or more people to move and install the freezer. Failure to do so can result in back or 

other injury. When moving the appliance, do not tilt it beyond 45° from the upright position. 



To ensure proper ventilation for your freezer, the front of the unit must be completely unobstructed.   

Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above 60°F (16°C) and below 90°F (32°C).   

This unit must be installed in an area protected from the elements such as wind, rain, water spray 

or drips. 



The freezer should not be located next to ovens, grills or other sources of high heat.   



The freezer must be installed with an electrical connection in accordance with state and local 

codes. A standard electrical supply (115-120V AC only, 60 Hz), properly grounded in accordance 

with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances is required. 



If there is a sudden power outage, allow at least 5 minutes before re-powering the unit, in order to 

protect the compressor. 



Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord of the freezer. 



The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amps. 



It is important for the freezer to be leveled in order to work properly. You may need to make 

several adjustments to level it.
