Product Registration

These instructions include information which is intended to
assure the operator of correct installation, operation and service.
Before attempting installation, adjustment or maintenance, be
certain of the following:

Important Safety Instructions

Read all 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 unit 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 appliance 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 the appliance to hide
or play. Remove the door/lid of the appliance when not in use,
even if you plan to discard the appliance. Many communities
have laws requiring you to take this safety precaution.

• That you have read and fully understand the instructions.

• That you have all the tools required and are trained to use

them.

• That you have met all installation and usage restrictions and
are familiar with the functions and operations of the unit.

• That you follow all instructions exactly as given.

All the fittings, measurements, recommendations and procedures
are significant. Substitutions and approximations must be
avoided. Improper handling, maintenance, installation and
adjustment, or service attempted by anyone other than a qualified
technician, may void the future warranty claims and cause
damage to the unit and/or result in injury to the operator and/or
bystanders.

Record your Model and Serial Numbers

Record the model number and serial number of this appliance
in the space provided below (the serial plate is located on the

Proper Disposal of Freezer

Risk of Child Entrapment

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past.
Junked or abandoned refrigerators or freezers 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:

• Remove the lid.

• Have the refrigerant removed by a qualified technician.

Electrical Information

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

Avoid fire hazard or

electric shock. Do not use an extension cord
or an adapter plug. Do not remove any

prong from the power cord.

Installation and Setup

Inspection for Damage

Inspect the underside of the cabinet and packaging for damage
such as a fork truck can cause. 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 product.

• Remove the package containing the casters from the unit. This

package will contain the following items:

• One (1) wrench

• Sixteen (16) screws

• Four (4) casters

• 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.
Receptacles with Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are
NOT RECOMMENDED. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION

CORD OR AN ADAPTER PLUG.

• If the 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.

• To avoid electrical shock, unplug the appliance before
cleaning.

NOTE: Turning the control to “OFF” turns off the compressor
but does not disconnect power to other electrical components.

Casters

• With an assistant, tilt the unit 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, install
all four (4) casters in the tapped holes in the bottom of the
unit. Tighten the screws securely.

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

• To prevent unintended movement, block casters once the unit

is in place.

Appliance Placement

Leave a 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. For the most efficient operation,
the appliance should be located where surrounding temperatures
will not drop below 40ºF (43ºC) or exceed 110ºF (43ºC).
Additional compressor heaters are not recommended.

Insulation

The insulated space on this cabinet is sealed to maintain peak
efficiency. DO NOT drill holes in the cabinet. Holes drilled in the
cabinet may destroy that seal and damage electrical wiring
located in the insulated space. It may also pierce and damage
the sealed refrigeration system in the insulated space.

DAMAGED ELECTRICAL WIRING OR WET INSULATION
CAUSED BY DRILLING WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

Glass Lid (Glass Lid Models)

• There are two (2) glass lids, a smaller one that fits in the lower
track of the ice cream 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

• Install the lower glass first. Again, the lower glass is the smaller
of the two. It has a flexible vinyl seal and a lock plate. The
flexible seal should be facing up and positioned on the end
away from the two 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 glass 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 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.

Features

Interior Lighting (Some Chest Freezer Models)

The light comes on automatically when the lid is opened. To
replace the light bulb, turn the temperature control to “OFF” and
UNPLUG THE ELECTRICAL CORD. Replace the old bulb with
a bulb of the same type and wattage.

Four (4) Swivel Casters

The freezer comes with four (4) swivel casters. The casters allow
the appliance to be moved with ease. Refer to the Installation
and Setup section for caster installation instructions.

Appliance Start-up

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 Setting

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.

Commercial Grade Basket

The NSF certified basket helps organize odd-shaped items. To
reach other packages in the freezer, slide the basket aside or lift
out.

Security Lock

This security lock fastens the lid snugly, ensuring that stored
food is secure. To lock or unlock the freezer, slide the key into
the lock and turn. The key pops out of the lock after it has been
turned.
