IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
?WARNING ?
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
or injury when using your freezer, follow
these basic precautions:
? Read all instructions before using the freezer.
DANGER or WARNING: Risk of child entrapment.
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
freezer are still dangerous, even if they will “just sit in the garage a few days.”
? Before you throw away your old 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.
? Never clean freezer parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard
or explosion.
? Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other freezer. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Freezer
? Remove the exterior and interior packing.
? Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:
? 1 Storage Basket
? 1 Divider (CF142 & CF199 only)
? 1 Instruction Manual
? 1 Plastic Scraper
? Before connecting the freezer to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours.
This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during
transportation.
? Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Installing Your Freezer
? This appliance is designed to be free standing only, and should not be recessed or built -in.
? Place your freezer on a floor that is strong enough to support the freezer when it is fully loaded.
Allow 5 inches of space between the back and sides of the freezer, which allows the proper air
circulation.
? Locate the freezer away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.).
Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical
consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the freezer not to perform
properly.
? Avoid locating the freezer in moist areas.
? Plug the freezer into an exclusive, 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 Avanti Products service center.
? After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, allow the unit to cool down for 2~3 hours before
placing food in the freezer compartment.
