GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be
connected to an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified
electrician of serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.
Use an exclusive wall outlet; Do not connect your freezer to extension cords, or together with any other
appliance in the same wall outlet. Do not splice the cord.
IMPORTANT WARNING: An empty freezer is a very dangerous attraction to children. Remove either the
gasket, latches, lids, or doors from unused appliances, or take some other action that will gaurantee it harmless.
INSTALLATION
Remove exterior and interior packings, wipe the outside thoroughly with a soft dry cloth and the inside with a
wet, lukewarm cloth. Avoid placing the cabinet in a narrow recess or near any heat source, direct sunlight, or
moisture. Let air circulate freely around the cabinet. Keep the rear of the freezer 5 inches away from the wall.
Location:
1) Select a place with a strong, level floor.
2) Allow 5 inches of space between the back of the freezer and any adjacent wall.
3) Avoid direct sunlight and heat. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating. Heat sources nearby will
cause higher electricity consumption.
4) Avoid very moist places. Too much moisture in the air will cause frost to form very quickly on the
evaporator, and your freezer will have to be defrosted more frequently.
OPERATION
To avoid vibration, the cabinet must be set level.This is accomplished by adjusting the
(2) front leveling legs located under the freezer cabinet. To start the freezer, turn the
temperature control to the position corresponding to the desired cooling.
0 = No Cooling
3, 4 = Medium Cooling
The freezer temperature will vary depending on the quantity of the food stored and
on the frequency with which the door is opened.
DEFROSTING
INSTRUCTIONS
Defrost and clean your freezer when frost has built up to about 1 1/4"(6mm) thickness. Complete defrosting
and cleaning should be done at least once a year. In high humidity areas, a freezer may need more frequent
defrosting and cleaning.
IMPORTANT: Do not use an ice pick, knife or other sharp-pointed tool to defrost freezer. Damage can occur.
1) Turn temperature control to '0'(off) and unplug power cord.
2) Remove all frozen food.Wrap frozen food in several layers of newspaper and cover with a blanket. Food will
say frozen for several hours OR store frozen food in a cooler, additional refrigerator-freezer or in a cool area.
3) Place pans of hot water in freezer with door open to speed melting. Directing air from an electric fan into
freezer will also help. Do not place fan in freezer.
4) Remove frost.
5) Wipe water from walls and bottom of freezer with a towel or sponge.
6) Wash inside walls.
7) Rinse and dry thoroughly.
8) Replace all frozen food.
9) Plug in power cord and refer to "Operation."

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current.
