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.
• Allow at least 5cm 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 front feet can be adjusted to level the appliance properly. Adjust the two
front 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.
