INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 

 

Before Using the Freezer 

 

Remove the exterior and interior packing. 

 

Before connecting the  Freezer  to  a  power source, let the unit  stand upright for 
approximately 4 hours  to  mitigate  the possibility  of a malfunction  in the cooling 
system from improper handling during transportation. 

 

Clean the interior surface with warm water using a soft cloth. 

Installing the Freezer 

 

This appliance is designed to be free standing only, and should not be recessed or 
built-in. 

 

There  are no wheels  on the bottom of the unit, please lift it up when move the 
appliance. 

Don’t push or pull it  when it sits on the flooring which might be  

damaged or scratched.

 

 

Allow at least 10cm of space between the back and sides of the Freezer to allow 

proper air ventilation. 

Insufficient space will result in cooling and working life issue 

and voiding warranty. 

 

Place  the  Freezer  on a 

leveled/even

  floor  surface  that is strong enough to support 

the weight of the Freezer when it is fully loaded to prevent vibrations.  

 

Place the Freezer on a concrete, tile floor or waterproof floor is recommended.

 

The fridge will produce defrost water or condensation moisture, it might cause 

water damage in some extreme circumstances. 

 

The bottom feet can be adjusted to level the appliance properly. 

Adjust the two  

feet to keep the Freezer leveled or elevated. 

 

Situate the Freezer away from direct sunlight and sources of direct heat (stove, heater, 
radiator, etc.). Direct  sunlight may also  affect the acrylic coating and  heat sources 
may cause an increase power consumption.   

 

This unit is not designed for outside installation. 

 

Avoid situating the Freezer in moist OR 

pest infestation

 areas.  

 

Plug the Freezer into dedicated, properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under 
any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any 
questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified 
electrician or an authorized service center.   

 

After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, turn the unit on and allow the unit to 
cool down for 4-6 hours before placing food in the Freezer. 

 

Do not place heavy items on the top of this appliance.  

 

ENERGY SAVING TIPS 

 

 

Allow hot foods to cool to room temperature before placing in the Freezer. Overloading 
the Freezer forces the compressor to work harder.  Foods that freeze too slowly may 
lose quality, or spoil. 

 

Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the 
Freezer.  This cuts down on frost build-up inside the Freezer. 

 

Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches.  Remove as 
many items as needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
