Moving
the
freezer
When
transporting
the freezer
it
must be kept
in the upright
position.
If the freezer
is inadvertently
tilted
beyond
45 degrees
or was
in a lay
down
position
for any
reason
e.g.
shipping,
the unit must not be
operated
for at least 24 hours,
It
must be placed
in the upright
posi-
tion for this period
to allow
the inter-
nal oil and refrigerant
to stabilize
in
the system.
Ignoring
this precaution-
ary measure
may
result
in damage
to the sealed
system
and compressor.
Defrost
whenever
frost
on the wall
of
the freezer
compartment
becomes
1/8"
thick.
Never
use a sharp
or
metallic
instrument
to remove
frost
as
it may
damage
the cooling
coils.
(A punctured
cooling
coil will cause
serious
damage
to the product
and
will void
the warranty).
We
do not
recommend
using
any kind
of
scraper.
Do not use any electrical
device
in defrosting
your
freezer,
Turn the temperature
control
to "0"
and unplug
the freezer.
Remove
all
foods
from
the freezer
compartment.
Slide
a shallow
pan
under
the
freezer.
Defrosting
usually
takes a few hours.
To quicken
defrosting
you may,
keep
the door
open
and place
a bowl
of
warm
water
in the freezer.
After
defrosting,
empty
water
from
the
drip
tray.
Be sure to check
the pan to
aviod
overfill
Sponge
remaining

(see care
and cleaning).
Plug in the freezer
