WARNING  
ElECTRICAl INFORMATION  
FIRST STEPS  
These guidelines must be followed to ensure that safety  
mechanisms in the design of this freezer will operate prop-  
erly.  
This Owner’s Guide provides specific operating instruc-  
tions for your model. Use the freezer only as instructed in  
this Owner’s Guide. Before starting the freezer, follow  
these important first steps.  
Refer to the serialplate for correct electrical rating.  
The power cord of the appiiance is equipped with a  
three prong plug for your protection against shock  
hazards. It must be plugged directly into a properly  
groundedthree prong receptacle, protected with a 15  
amp timedelay fuse or circuit breaker. The receptacle  
must be installed in accordance with local codes  
and ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician.  
Receptacles protected by Ground Fault Interrupters  
(GFI) are NOT RECOMMENDED. DO NOT USE AN  
EXTENSION CORD OR ADAPTER PlUG.  
INSTAllATION  
Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical  
outlet. Do Not use an extension cord or an adapter  
plug.  
For the most efficient operation, the freezer should  
be located where surrounding temperatures will not  
exceed 110°F (43°C). Temperatures of 32°F (0°C) and  
below will NOT affect freezer operation. Additional  
compressor heaters are not recommended.  
If voltage varies by 10% or more, freezer performance  
may be affected. Operating freezer with insufficient  
power can damage the motor. Such damage is  
not covered under the warranty. If you suspect your  
household voltage is high or low, consult your power  
company for testing.  
Allow space around the unit for good air circulation.  
Leave a 3 inch (75 mm) space on all sides of the  
freezer for adequate circulation.  
To prevent the freezer from being turned off  
accidentically, do not plug unit into an outlet controlled  
by a wall switch or pull cord.  
Do not pinch, knot, or bend the cord in any manner.  
OThER PRECAUTIONS  
To defrost freezer, always unplug unit first.  
Never unplug the freezer by pulling on the cord.  
Always grip the plug firmly, and pull straight out from  
the receptacle.  
Turning the temperature control to OFF turns off the  
compressor, but does not disconnect the power to the  
light bulb or other electrical components.  
NOTE: The exterior walls of the freezer may become quite  
warm as the compressor works to transfer heat from the  
inside. Temperatures as much as 30° F warmer than room  
temperature can be expected. For this reason it is particu-  
larly important in hotter climates to allow enough space for  
air circulation around your freezer.  
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.  
lEVElING  
Grounding type  
wall receptacle  
The freezer must have all bottom corners resting firmly on  
a solid floor. The floor must be strong enough to support  
a fully loaded freezer. NOTE: It is VERY IMPORTANT for  
your freezer to be level in order to function properly. If the  
freezer is not leveled during installation, the door may be  
misaligned and not close or seal properly, causing cooling,  
frost, or moisture problems.  
Do not, under any  
circumstances,  
cut, remove,  
or bypass the  
grounding prong.  
To level Upright Models:  
After discarding crating screws and wood base, use a car-  
penter’s level to level the freezer from front-to-back. Adjust  
the plastic leveling feet in front, ½ bubble higher, so that  
the door closes easily when left halfway open.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS  
To level Chest Models:  
If needed, add metal or wood shims between foot pads  
and floor.  
The freezer should be located in  
the coolest area of the room, away  
from heat producing appliances  
or heating ducts, and out of direct  
sunlight.

ClEANING (PRIOR TO USE)  
Wash any removable parts, the freezer interior, and  
exterior with mild detergent and warm water. Wipe dry.  
Do not use harsh cleaners on these surfaces.  
Let hot foods cool to room  
temperature before placing in the  
Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments,  
which can scratch the appliance surface when  
removing adhesive labels. Any glue left from the tape  
can be removed with a mixture of warm water and mild  
detergent, or touch the residue with the sticky side  
of tape already removed. Do not remove the serial  
plate.  
freezer. Overloading the freezer forces the compressor  
to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose  
quality or spoil.  
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers  
dry before placing them in the freezer. This cuts down  
on frost build-up inside the freezer.  
Freezer shelves should not be lined with aluminum foil,  
wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold  
air circulation, making the freezer less efficient.  
To allow door to  
close and seal properly, DO NOT let  
food packages extend past the front  
of shelves.  
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and  
extended searches. Remove as many items as needed  
at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.  
SETTING ThE TEMPERATURE CONTROl  
COOl DOwN PERIOD  
For safe food storage, allow 4 hours for the freezer to  
cool down completely. The freezer will run continuously  
for the first several hours. Foods that are already  
frozen may be placed in the freezer after the first few  
hours of operation. Unfrozen foods should NOT be  
loaded into the freezer until the freezer has operated  
for 4 hours.

Freezer must be unplugged (to avoid electrical  
hazard) from power source when defrosting unit.  
Some upright freezers are frost-free and defrost automati-  
cally, but should be cleaned occasionally.  
BETwEEN DEFROSTINGS  
To avoid frequent defrosting, occasionally use a plastic  
scraper to remove frost. Scrape with a pulling motion.  
Never use a metal instrument to remove frost.  
DEFROSTING  
It is important to defrost and clean the freezer when ¼ to  
½ inch of frost has accumulated. Frost may tend to accu-  
mulate faster on the upper part of the freezer due to warm,  
moist air entering the freezer when the door is opened.  
Remove food and leave the door open when defrosting the  
freezer.

Use these clever dividers to custom-arrange a variety of  
different-sizedstoragebinsinthebottomofyourchestfreezer.  
Use the peel-n-stick labels found in your literature packet to  
help remind you which items are stored where. If you have  
an item that isn’t already covered by one of the pre-printed  
labels then use one of the blank labels and a permanent  
marking pen to make your own custom label. Labels can be  
peeled off when no longer needed and replaced by new and  
different ones.
