Important Safety

Read all instructions before using this freezer.

Instructions

Proper Disposal of Your

Refrigerator/Freezer

Risk of child entrapment.
Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or
abandoned refrigerators or freezer are
still dangerous — even if they will sit for
“just a few days.” If you are getting rid of
your old refrigerator or freezer, please
follow the instructions below to help
prevent accidents.

BEFORE YOU THROW AWAY YOUR
OLD REFRIGERATOR/FREEZER:

•Remove doors.

•Leave shelves in
place so children
may not easily
climb inside.

Avoid fire hazard or
electric shock. Do not use an extension
cord or an adapter plug. Do not remove
any prong from power cord.

For Your Safety

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of
this or any other appliance. Read product labels for flammability and other warnings.

Child Safety

• Destroy carton, plastic bags, and any exterior wrapping material immediately after

the freezer is unpacked. Children should never use these items for play. Cartons
covered with rugs, bedspreads, plastic sheets or stretch wrap may become airtight
chambers and can quickly cause suffocation.

• A child might suffocate if he crawls into a freezer to hide or play. Remove

the door of a freezer when not in use, even if you plan to discard the
freezer. Many communities have laws requiring you to take this safety precaution.

Electrical Information

These guidelines must be followed to ensure that safety mechanisms in the
design of this freezer will operate properly.

• Refer to the serial plate for correct electrical rating. The power cord of the
appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for protection against
shock hazards. It must be plugged directly into its own properly grounded three­prong receptacle, protected with a 15 amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker. The
receptacle must be installed in accordance with the local codes and ordinances.
Consult a qualified electrician. Receptacles protected by Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupters (GFCI) are NOT RECOMMENDED. DO NOT use an extension cord

or adapter plug.

• If voltage varies by 10 percent or more, freezer performance may be affected.
Operating the freezer with insufficient power can damage the motor. Such damage
is not covered under the warranty. If you suspect your household voltage is high
or low, consult your power company for testing.

• To prevent the freezer from being turned off accidentally, do not plug unit into an
outlet controlled by a wall switch or pull cord.

• Do not pinch, knot, or bend power cord in any manner.

Other Precautions

• Never unplug the freezer by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly
and pull straight out from the receptacle.

• Turning the control to OFF turns off the compressor, but does not disconnect power
to other electrical components.

Before starting the freezer, follow these important first steps:

Inspection for Damage

• Inspect the freezer and packaging for damage such as a fork truck can cause, or

look for bent corners from dropping the cabinet. If hidden damage is found after
uncrating, immediately call the delivery carrier and request an inspection. Retain
all packaging and crating materials until the inspection is complete.

Uncrating and Set-Up

• Using a utility knife with a sharp, short blade, cut along the perimeter of the carton

as indicated.

• Lift the carton off the freezer.

• Using a pair of wire cutters, carefully snip the cable tie from the basket. Set the

basket to the side.

• Remove the cardboard box containing the glass lid and casters from the freezer.
This box will contain the following items:

• One (1) wrench

• Sixteen (16) screws

• Four (4) casters

• One (1) upper glass lid

• One (1) lower glass lid

Casters:

• With an assistant, tilt the freezer until it is resting on its back. Take care to protect

the back from being scratched during this process.

• Using the wrench provided and the sixteen (16) screws (Figure 1), install all four
(4) casters in the tapping holes in the bottom of the unit. Tighten securely.

• With an assistant, tilt the freezer back up onto the casters.

• Return the wire basket to the unit, resting it on the side rails of the freezer.

Glass Lid:

• There are two glass lids, a smaller one that fits in the lower track of the freezer and

a larger one that fits in the upper track. The lower track has two (2) round retaining
studs and the upper has four (4) round retaining studs (Figure 2).

• Install the lower glass first. Again, the lower glass is the smaller of the two. It has
a flexible vinyl seal (Figura 4) and a lock plate. The flexible seal should be facing
up and positioned on the end away from the two (2) round retaining studs. Place
the panel in the center and slide along the lower track until it is secure under the
two retaining studs.

• Place the upper glass panel over the lower panel already in place. Slide it over the
lower lid past the flexible seal. You will notice a slight resistance with the lower lid
gasket. Slide the upper panel under the four (4) studs on the upper track of the
frame.

• When properly installed, there is a seal formed by the flexible vinyl seal between
the two glass lids.

Lock:

• To lock the glass lid, simply insert the key and lock into the lock plate. Turn key

clockwise. Remove key and store in safe place.
