WARNING  
Child Safety  
Do not, under  
any circumstances,  
cut, remove,  
• Destroy carton, plastic bags, and any exte-  
rior wrapping material immediately after the  
unit is unpacked. Children should never use  
these items for play. Cartons covered with  
rugs, bedspreads, plastic sheets or stretch  
wrap may become airtight chambers and  
can quickly cause suffocation.  
or bypass the  
grounding prong.  
Power cord with  
3-prong grounded plug  
• An empty, discarded appliance is a very  
dangerous attraction to children.  
• Remove the door(s) of any appliance that is  
not in use, even if it is being discarded.  
WARNING  
Electrical Information  
These guidelines must be followed to ensure  
that safety mechanisms in the design of this  
appliance will operate properly.  
WARNING  
Proper Disposal of your Appliance  
Risk of child entrapment  
• Refer to the serial plate for correct electrical  
rating. The power cord of the appliance is  
equipped with a three-prong grounding plug  
for your protection against electrical shock  
hazards. It must be plugged directly into a  
properly grounded three-prong receptacle,  
protected with a 15-amp time delay fuse  
or circuit breaker. The receptacle must be  
installed in accordance with the local codes  
and ordinances. Consult a qualified electri-  
cian. Receptacles protected by Ground Fault  
Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are NOT RECOM-  
MENDED. Do NOT use an extension cord or  
adapter plug.  
• If the power cord is damaged, it should be  
replaced by an authorized service technician  
to prevent any risk.  
• Never unplug the appliance by pulling on  
the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly,  
and pull straight out from the receptacle to  
prevent damaging the power cord.  
• Unplug the appliance before cleaning and  
before replacing a light bulb to avoid electri-  
cal shock.  
• If voltage varies by 10% or more, appliance  
performance may be affected. Operating the  
unit 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.  
To prevent the appliance from being turned  
off accidentally, do not plug unit into an outlet  
controlled by a wall switch or pull cord.  
• Do not pinch, knot, or bend power cord in  
any manner.  
Child entrapment and suffocation are not  
problems of the past. Junked or abandoned  
appliances are still dangerous – even if they  
will sit for “just a few days. If you are getting  
rid of your old appliance, please follow the  
instructions below to help prevent accidents.  
We strongly encourage responsible  
appliance recycling/disposal methods. Check  
with your utility company or visit www.  
recyclemyoldfridge.com for more information  
on recycling your old appliance.  
Before you throw away  
your old appliance:  
• Remove door/lid.  
• Leave shelves in place  
so children may  
not easily  
climb inside.  
• Have the  
refrigerant  
removed by a  
qualified technician.  
WARNING  
Avoid fire hazard or electric shock. Do not use  
an extension cord or an adapter plug. Do not  
remove any prong from power cord.

OPTIONAL FEATURES  
CARE AND CLEANING  
Compressor-Mounted Drain Pan  
CAUTION  
(most upright frost-free models)  
Damp objects stick to cold metal surfaces. Do  
not touch interior metal surfaces with wet or  
damp hands.  
Most upright frost-free freezers are equipped with  
a compressor-mounted drain pan that collects  
condensate during each defrost cycle. This  
compressor-mounted drain pan takes advantage  
of the heat generated by the compressor to  
evaporate condensate water, so there is no need  
to empty the pan during each defrost cycle.  
Some upright freezers are frost-free and defrost  
automatically, but should be cleaned occasionally.  
Between Defrosting  
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.  
CAUTION  
Freezer must be unplugged (to avoid electrical  
hazard) from power source when defrosting unit.  
Drain Pan  
Defrosting  
It is important to defrost and clean freezer when  
¼ to ½ inch of frost has accumulated. Frost may  
tend to accumulate faster on 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.  
• On upright models with a defrost drain  
(Figure 1), remove drain plug on the inside  
floor of the freezer by pulling straight out.  
To access external drain tube on models  
with a base panel, first remove the 2 screws  
from the base panel. Locate the drain tube  
near the left center under the freezer. Place  
a shallow pan under the drain tube. Defrost  
water will drain out. Check pan occasionally  
so water does not overflow. A ½ inch garden  
hose adapter can be used to drain the freezer  
directly into a floor drain. If your model is  
not equipped with an adapter, one can be  
purchased at most hardware stores. Replace  
the drain plug when defrosting and cleaning  
are completed. If the drain is left open, warm  
air may enter freezer.  
Compressor  
ENERGY-SAVING TIPS  
• The appliance should  
be located in the  
coolest area of the  
room, away from heat  
producing appliances or  
heating ducts, and out  
of direct sunlight.  
• Let hot foods cool  
to room temperature before placing in the  
unit. Overloading the appliance 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  
unit. This cuts down on frost build-up inside  
the unit.  
• Shelves and baskets should not be lined with  
aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.  
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making  
the freezer less efficient.  
• Organize and label food to reduce door  
openings and extended searches. Remove as  
many items as needed at one time, and close  
door as soon as possible.

Drain Pan  
Figure 4  
Defrost water will drain out. Check pan  
occasionally so water does not overflow. Replace  
the drain plugs when defrosting is completed.  
Figure 1  
• On chest models with a defrost drain,  
place a shallow pan beneath the drain outlet  
(Figure 2). A ½ inch garden hose adapter can  
be used to drain the freezer directly into a floor  
drain (Figure 3). If your model is not equipped  
with an adapter, one can be purchased at most  
hardware stores. Pull out the drain plug inside  
the freezer, and pull off the outside defrost  
drain plug (Figure 4).  
• On models without a defrost drain, place  
towels or newspapers on the freezer bottom  
to catch the frost. The frost will loosen and  
fall. Remove towels and/or newspapers.  
• If the frost is soft, remove it by using a plastic  
scraper. If the frost is glazed and hard, fill  
deep pans with hot water and place them on  
the freezer bottom. Close the freezer door.  
Frost should soften in about 15 minutes.  
Repeat this procedure if necessary.  
Cleaning the Inside  
Drain  
Pan  
After defrosting, wash inside surfaces of the  
unit with a solution of 2 tbsp. (25 g) of baking  
soda in 1 qt. (1 l) warm water. Rinse and dry.  
Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth  
when cleaning in the area of the controls, or any  
electrical parts.  
DrainTube  
Wash the removable parts with the baking soda  
solution mentioned above, or mild detergent and  
warm water. Rinse and dry. Never use metallic  
scouring pads, brushes, abrasive cleaners, or  
alkaline solutions on any surface. Do not wash  
removable parts in a dishwasher.

CARE AND CLEANING  
POWER/FREEZER FAILURE  
If a power failure occurs, frozen foods will stay  
frozen for at least 24 hours if the appliance is kept  
closed. If the power failure continues, pack seven  
or eight pounds of dry ice into the unit every 24  
hours. Look in the Yellow Pages under "Dry Ice,"  
"Dairies," or "Ice Cream Manufacturers" for local  
dry ice suppliers. Always wear gloves and use  
caution when handling dry ice.  
WARNING  
If leaving door open while on vacation, make  
certain that children cannot get into the  
appliance and become entrapped.  
WARNING  
If the appliance has stopped operating,  
see "Appliance does not run" in the BEFORE  
YOU CALL section of this manual. If you cannot  
solve the problem, call an authorized servicer  
immediately.  
Do not open door unnecessarily if unit is off for  
several hours.  
Vacation and Moving Tips  
Short Vacations: Leave the appliance operating  
during vacations of less than 3 weeks.  
If the appliance remains off for several  
hours, follow the directions above for the use of  
dry ice during a power failure. If necessary, take  
the food to a local locker plant until the unit is  
ready to operate. Look in the Yellow Pages under  
"Frozen Food Locker Plants."  
Long Vacations: If the unit will not be used  
for several months, remove all food and unplug  
the power cord. Clean and dry the interior  
thoroughly. Leave the freezer door open slightly,  
blocking it open if necessary, to prevent odor and  
mold growth.  
Moving: Disconnect the power cord plug from the  
wall outlet. Remove food, defrost, and then clean  
the appliance. Secure all loose items such as base  
panel, baskets, and shelves by taping them securely  
in place to prevent damage. In the moving vehicle,  
secure the unit in an upright position, and secure to  
prevent movement. Also protect outside of unit with  
a blanket, or similar item.
