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
1 Instruction Manual
Before connecting the freezer to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from improper handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth. (Cleaning instruction on page 7)
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 ventilation. Adjust the feet to keep the freezer level.
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. Ambient temperature below 50°F or above 85°F will hinder the performance of this appliance. This unit is not designed for use in a garage or any other outside installation.
Avoid locating the freezer in moist 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. This unit is not designed to be installed in an RV or used with an inverter.
After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet, turn the unit on and allow the unit to cool down for 2~3 hours under before placing food in the freezer compartment.

Electrical Connection
WARNING
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized service center.
This freezer should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this freezer is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets 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 freezer requires a standard 115/120 Volt A.C. ~/60Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground.
This freezer is not designed to be used with an inverter.
The cord should be secured behind the freezer and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.
Never unplug the freezer by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle.
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. Use of an extension cord can negatively effect the performance of the unit.
The “POWER” light (Green) indicates that the freezer is properly connected to the electrical power.
The “RUN” light (Red) will not illuminate when the unit is operating below freezing.
The “RUN” light will illuminate when the temperature inside the unit increases above freezing. Please be advised that the “RUN” light may come on for a period of time when the lid is opened, when new items are stored inside the unit or when the lid is forced open by irregular contents.
OPERATING YOUR FREEZER
Temperature Control
Your freezer has one control for regulating the temperature. The temperature control is located on the lower right hand corner.
The first time you turn the unit on, adjust the temperature control knob to “3” and run for at least 2 hours before putting frozen foods inside. This will ensure the cabinet is thoroughly chilled before food is put in.
The range of the FREEZER temperature control is from position "1" the warmest to "5"
the coldest. Adjust the temperature control to the setting that best suits your needs. The setting of “3” should be appropriate for home or office freezer use.

NOTE;
If the unit is unplugged, loses power; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the freezer will not start.
Large amounts of food will lower the cooling efficiency of the appliance.
If you choose to change the thermostat setting, adjust thermostat control by one numerical increment at a time. Allow several hours for temperature to stabilize between adjustments.
Defrosting Your Freezer
When? For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the freezer when the frost on the freezer walls is excessive or ¼ to ½ inch thick.
Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low.
CAUTION
Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In addition, never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils and will void the warranty.
Remove the frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to protect the food.
Unplug the freezer. The Power Supply light should be off (green light out).
During defrosting, the ice melts into the cabinet.
Remove the drain plug on the inside floor of the freezer by pulling straight out.
Place a shallow pan outside drain outlet. The defrost water will drain out.
Check the pan occasionally so the water does not overflow.
Clean the interior of the freezer.
Replace the plug on the inside floor.
Adjust the temperature control knob to “3”.
Allow the cabinet to cool for one hour.
Return food to the freezer.
HELPFUL HINT:
Defrosting usually takes a few hours. Leaving the door open will help speed the process. Also, pouring warm water (not boiling) on the ice/frost will help speed melting.
WARNING
Scraping ice from the freezer compartment can damage the unit.
The Freezer Compartment
This compartment is designed for the long-term storage of frozen food. Storage time period is up to three months.
The storage life of frozen foods varies and the recommended storage time should not be exceeded. The instructions regarding the care of frozen foods should be followed when defrosting the freezer.
Pre-packed commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen foods manufacturers’ instructions for a three star frozen food storage compartment or home freezer.
Place frozen food into the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase. If there are instructions on the packet, carefully follow these instructions regarding storage times.
The freezer lid is susceptible to breaking due to excessive ice build up. Be sure to defrost when the ice reaches ¼ to ½ inch thick.
A storage basket is provided for the organization of odd-shaped items. To reach other packages in the freezer, just slide the basket to one side, or lift it out.
