Readall instructions before using this appliance.
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
to play. Cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads,
plastic sheets or stretch wrap may become airtight
chambers, and can quickly cause suffocation.
• Remove all staples from the carton. Staples can
cause severe cuts, and destroy finishes if they
come in contact with other appliances or furniture.
• An empty, discarded ice box, refrigerator, or
freezer is a very dangerous attraction to children.

Electrical Information
These guidelines must be followed to ensure that
safety mechanisms in the design of this appliance
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 three-prong
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. Receptacleswith
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI)are NOT
RECOMMENDED. DO NOT use an extension cord
or an adapter plug.
• If voltage varies by 10 percent or more, appliance
performance may be affected. Operating the
appliance with insufficient power can damage the
motor. Such damage is not covered under the
warranty. If you suspect your voltage is high or low,
consult your power company for testing.
• To prevent the appliance from being turned off
accidentally, do not plug the unit into an outlet
controlled by a wall switch or pull cord.
* Do not pinch, knot, or bend the power cord in any
manner.
Other Precautions
• Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the power
cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight
out from the receptacle.
• Toavoid electrical shock, unplug the appliance
before cleaning.
Note: Turning the control to OFFturns off the
compressor, but does not disconnect power to other
electrical components.

With an assistant, tip unit up so it is standing
upright on its casters. Roll unit to the place where
it will be installed. If floor is not flat and level,
unit may tip from side to side. If it does tip, the
C-shaped washers can be use to shim unit up.
They should be installed between caster and
freezer base. Remember to securely tighten all
nuts when unit installation is satisfactory.
Inspection for Damage
Inspect the underside of the cabinet and packaging
for damage such as a fork truck can cause, or took for
bent base members 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.
Uncrate and Set Up
1. Remove carton and all loose parts from inside of
freezer.
2. Tip unit onto its back.

Appliance Placement
Leavea three (3) inch space on all sides and the back
of the cabinet for adequate air circulation. Choose a
place that is near a grounded electrical outlet. Forthe
most efficient operation, the appliance should be
located where surrounding temperatures will not
exceed 110°F (43°C). Appliance should not be
operated in ambient below 32°F (0°C). Additional
compressor heaters are not recommended.
Insulation
The insulated space of this cabinet is sealed to
maintain peak efficiency. Holes drilled in the cabinet
may destroy that seal and damage electrical wiring
located in the insulated space.
DAMAGED ELECTRICALWIRING OR WET
INSULATION CAUSED BY DRILLING WILL VOID

Back of Unit
Figure B
Position of knob
at end of defrost cycle.
Once the appliance has been located in its permanent
location and the proper power and grounding has
been provided, the following items must be checked
or completed:
Cool Down Period
For safe food storage, allow 24 hours for the
appliance to cool down completely before loading
with food. The appliance will run continuously for the
first several hours. Do not place any food in the
appliance until after the first 24 hours of operation.
Thermostat Settings
The appliance is shipped from the factory with the
thermostat set at about the mid-point of the
operating range. Adjustments colder or warmer can
be made after the appliance has been running for at
least 8 hours. Allow at least 8 hours for temperature
stabilization before re-adjusting the thermostat.
Defrost Setting
The appliance is designed to defrost automatically
every 12 hours. To set the time of defrost, wait until
the desired time to defrost. With the notch on the
timer knob aligned with the line on the bracket
(Figure A), turn the defrost timer knob clockwise
slowly. The timer will click several times, then once
loudly, at which point the defrost cycle begins. The
timer knob will advance through the defrost cycle,
then click loudly at the end of the cycle (Figure B).
The appliance will defrost automatically every 12
hours after the first defrost cycle.
For example, to set the appliance to defrost at 10:00
a.m., turn the timer knob clockwise at 10:00 a.m.
until the timer clicks loudly. The appliance will defrost
daily at 10:00 a.m. and again 12 hours later at 10:00
p.m. Note: The products' internal temperature will rise
during the defrost cycle every 12 hours.

Energy Conservation Measures
The appliance is designed for efficiency with heavy
foam insulation. However, there are things that the
user can do to maintain the appliance in operating
condition:

necessaryto maintain safe, product storage
temperatures.
2. Make sure the appliance is located to prevent
direct exposure to sunlight, air ducts, etc.
3. Keep the door closed except for normal use.
Inspect the door often to see that it self-closes and
the gasket is in good condition.
4. Do not overstock the product in the cabinet
because it will block the normal air flow.
5. Have at least annual inspections by a qualified
service company to seethat the fan motor is
functioning properly and that the refrigerant charge
iscorrect.
6. This appliance operates more efficiently in a cooler
ambient than in a hot ambient. Try to maintain an
ambient below 80°F (27°C) and 65% RHfor
maximum efficiency.
