LOCATION

The top of the cabinet requires free air access for proper operation. Allow a minimum of four-inch
clearance on the top, rear, and sides of the cabinet. The cabinet should also be levelled when it
is placed in its permanent location.

ELECTRICAL

Check the proposed electrical service outlet to be used to insure that the voltage, phase, and
current carrying capacity of the circuit from the electrical panel correspond to the requirements of
the cabinet. Never use an extension cord to wire any unit. Refer to the serial tag for all
pertinent electrical information.

Observe all Warning Labels. Disconnect power supply to eliminate injury from electrical
shock or moving parts when servicing equipment.

GENERAL OPERATION

COLD CONTROL ADJUSTMENT

The temperature control knob is located on top behind the facade of the upright model and
behind the lower front panel on the undercounter model. To make a small increase or decrease
in the internal cabinet temperature, rotate the control knob as needed.

DEFROSTING FREEZER MODELS

Because of the cold wall design, it will be necessary to occasionally manually defrost the cabinet.
To do this, shut off the switch and open the door. Wipe dry when the defrost is complete.
