IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

have thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are still

cold-below 40˚F”.

“…Thawed ground meats, poultry, or ﬁsh that have any oﬀ-odor

or oﬀ-color should not be refrozen and should not be eaten.

Thawed ice cream should be discarded. If the odor or color of

any food is poor or questionable, discard it. The food may be

dangerous to eat.”

“…Even partial thawing and re-freezing reduce the eating quality

of foods, particularly fruits, vegetables, and prepared foods. The

eating quality of red meats is aﬀected less than that of many

other foods. Use refrozen foods as soon as possible, to save as

much of its eating quality as you can.

10. This freezer should not be recessed or built-in an enclosed

INSTALLING YOUR FREEZER

UNPACKING YOUR FREEZER

1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive

tape holding the freezer accessories inside and

outside.

2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed

materials before powering on the freezer.

ADJUSTING YOUR FREEZER

• Your freezer is designed for freestanding installation only. It should not be

recessed or built-in.

• Place the freezer on a surface strong enough to support it fully loaded.

• When moving the freezer, never tilt it more than a 45-degree angle.

This could damage the compressor and the sealed system.

• If the freezer is tilted let it stand in an upright position for at least 24 hours

prior to plugging in. This is to allow the refrigerant to settle.

PROPER AIR CIRCULATION

• To assure your freezer works at the maximum eﬃciency it was designed for,

you should install it in a location where there is proper air circulation, plumbing

and electrical connections.

• The following are recommended clearances around the freezer:

Sides……………4” (102mm)

Back..................4” (102mm)

Top....................4” (102mm)

INSTALLING YOUR FREEZER CONT.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT

• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps

outlet) with proper grounding to power the freezer.

• Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting oﬀ the third grounding in order to

accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous

practice since it provides no eﬀective grounding for the freezer and may result in

shock hazard.

USE OF EXTENSION CORD

• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under

certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire

extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that will

accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord must be equal to or

greater than the electrical rating of the appliance. DO NOT USE EXTENSION

CORD LONGER THAN 12 FT.

INSTALL LIMITATIONS

• Do not install your freezer in any location not properly insulated or heated e.g.

garage etc. Your freezer was not designed to operate in temperature settings

below 55˚ Fahrenheit.

• Select a suitable location for the freezer on a hard even

surface away from direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators,

baseboard heaters, cooking appliances etc. Any ﬂoor unevenness should be

corrected.

• Once the freezer is in its proper place, plug it in an electrical outlet

having 115 volts and 15 amps.

• Set the temperature, on the temperature control knob. “1” being the warmest

and “7” being the coldest. Initially set the temperature on “4”. Place food inside

the freezer. After using the freezer for 24 hours set the freezer to your desired

setting.

• In case you unplug your freezer or experience an electrical outage, allow 5

DEFROSTING

• For most eﬃcient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost

whenever the frost becomes 1/4” thick. Never use a sharp or

metallic instrument to remove the frost, as it may damage the cooling coils.

(A punctured coil will void the warranty). Use only a plastic scraper. Do not use

boiling water as it may damage the unit.

• Remove frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to

protect the food.

• Turn the temperature control to OFF position and unplug the unit. Defrosting

usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster keep the freezer door open.

DEFROST DRAIN

Place a narrow defrost pan (not included) in front of the freezer, gently slide the

defrost drain outward. Water that has accumulated at the bottom of the freezer

during defrosting will drain into the pan.

NOTE: Monitor the defrost pan to avoid overﬂow.

• When defrosting is complete, wipe the interior of the freezer with a soft cloth.

Plug in power cord back into the electrical outlet.

•Reset the temperature control to the desired setting.

•Return the food into the freezer.

FOOD STORAGE INFORMATION

Frozen Food:

•Wipe containers before storing to avoid needless spills.

• Hot food should be allowed to cool before storing in the freezer. This will prevent

unnecessary energy use.

• When storing meats, keep in the original packaging or rewrap as necessary.

• Proper freezer storage requires correct packaging. All foods must be in packages,

which do not allow the ﬂow of air or moisture in, or out. Improper storage will

result in odor and taste transfer and will result in the drying out of the improperly

packaged food.

•Follow package or container instructions for proper storage.

•Packaging Recommendations:

Plastic containers with air tight lids

Heavy duty aluminum foil

Plastic wrap made from saran ﬁlm

Self-sealing plastic bags

•Do not refreeze defrosted/thawed foods.

• It is recommended that the freezing date be marked on the

packaging.

These are some suggestions for safe storage:

•TV Dinners 3 - 4 Months

•Fresh Shrimp, scallops, crawﬁsh 3 - 6 Months

•Hamburger & stew meats 3 - 4 Months

•Ground Turkey, veal, pork 3 - 4 Months

•Chops 4 - 6 Months
