IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Your safety and the safety of others ar e very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance.
Always read and obey all safety messages.
This is the Safety Alert Symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential
hazards that can kill or injure you and others. All safety messages will
follow the Safety Alert Symbol and either the word DANGER or
WARNING”.
DANGER means that failure to heed this
safety statement may result in severe
personal injury or death.
WARNING means that failure to heed
this safety statement may result in
extensive product damage, serious
personal injury, or death.
Safety messages wi ll al e rt you to what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance
of injury, and let you know what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
Before the freezer is used, it must be properly positio ned and installed as
described in this m anual, so read the manual carefull y. To reduce the risk
of fire, electrical shock or injury when using the freezer, follow basic pr e-
cautions, including the following:
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Do not remove grounding pro ng, do not use an adapter,
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. And 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, make sure the power line of the
unit is disconnected.
Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
Unplug the freezer or disconnect the power before cleaning or servicing. Failure to do so can
result in electrical shock or death.
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.
2
Use two or more people to move and install the freezer. Failure to do so can result in back or
other injury.
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, radiators or other sources of high heat.
The freezer must be installed with all electrical connections in accordance with state and local
codes. A standard electrical supply (115V AC only, 60 Hz), properly grounded in accordance
with the National Electrical Code and loca l codes and ordin anc es , is required.
Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord of the freezer.
The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amperes.
It is important for the freezer to be leveled in order to work properly. You may need to make
several adjustments to level it.
Never allow children to operate, play with or crawl inside the freezer.
Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners may
damage or discolor the interior.
Do not use this apparatus for other than its intended purpose.
THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR MEDICAL OR PHARMACEUTICAL USE ONLY. IT IS
NOT INTENDED FOR USE AS A HOUSEHOLD FREEZER.
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
refrigerators and freezers 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 or drawers in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the refrigerator/freezer.
THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE BY YOUNG CHILDREN OR INFIRM
PERSONS UNLESS THEY HAVE BEEN ADEQUATELY SUPERVISED BY A RESPONSIBLE
PERSON TO EN SURE T HAT TH EY CAN USE T HE AP PLIANC E SAF ELY. YOUNG CHILDREN

Installation Instructions
Before Using Your Freezer
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
:
Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:
3 drawers
1 short drain tube
2 keys (VT65ML and ALF620L models only)
CAUTION: After unpacking you MUST allow this appliance to stand upright for at
least 2 hours to allow the lubricant and refrigerant to drain back into the
compressor and stabilize. Failure to do so may adversely affect performance and
the lifetime of your unit.
Remove the drawers and clean them and the interior surfaces of the unit with
lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Installing the Freezer
Place the unit on a floor that is strong enough to support the appliance when it is fully
loaded. To level the unit, adjust the two leveling legs at the front.
:
Unless the model numbers include the letters BI, these appliances are designed to be
free-standing only, and should not be recessed or built in. When installing, allow at
least 5 inches of space at the sides and top of the unit and 2 inches at the rear, which
will allow the proper air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser.
If your model has the letters BI in its model number, the appliance can be installed
either free-standing or built-in. If the unit will be built into an enclosure, you must still
allow at least 3/16” of clear space on both sides and at the top, and 2” at the back.
Take care that the air vents at the front are never covered or blocked in any way.
Locate the unit away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (oven, heater, radiator,
etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase
electrical consumption. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also affect the
unit's performance.
Avoid locating the unit in moist areas. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to
form quickly on the evaporator, requiring more frequent defrosting of the freezer.
Plug the unit into an exclusive, properly installed and 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 authorized service center.
Electrical Connection
:
7
This unit should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this unit is
equipped with a three-prong plug that mates with a standard three-prong wall outlet to
minimize the possibility of electrical shock. Do not under any circumstances cut or
remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied.
This unit requires a standard 115-volt AC/60Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet
is properly grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your
responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall
outlet.
To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the unit and not left
exposed or dangling.
The unit should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet having a
voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best
performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire
hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug the unit by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull
straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately any power cord that has
become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion
damage along its length or at either end. When moving the unit, be careful not to
damage the power cord.
Extension Cord
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a
qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance.
