Important Safety Information

READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

WARNING

ELECTRICAL RATING: The serial rating plate indicates the

voltage and frequency the freezer is designed for.

Due to possible variations in line voltage (caused by overloading of circuits), it is advisable to install a separate fuse cir-

cuit from the meter panel. This will help to eliminate current ﬂuctuation which might cause motor trouble.

IMPORTANT WARNING

An empty freezer is a very dangerous attraction to children. Remove either the gasket or lid from

unused appliances, or take some other action that will guarantee it harmless.

DANGER: Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old freezer:

• Take off doors.

• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb in.

DON’T WAIT! DO IT NOW!

WARNING! EXPLOSION HAZARD!

Risk of ﬁre or explosion due to puncturing of refrigerant tubing. Do not use sharp objects to aid in

defrost. Please handle with care. Keep ﬂammable materials and vapors such as gasoline away from

the freezer. Use nonﬂammable cleaner.

Disposal of this unit should be in accordance with federal and local regulations.

Please ensure that component parts shall be replaced with like components and that servicing shall be done by

factory authorized service personnel, so as to minimize the risk of possible ignition due to incorrect parts or

improper service.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into 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 or

service agent 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 115V wall outlet. Do not connect your freezer to extension cords or together with another appliance in

the same wall outlet. Do not splice the cord.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

Important Safety Information

READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capabilities

may be different or reduced, or who lack experience or knowledge, unless such persons receive supervision or train-

ing to operate the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

• Do not use extension cords or ungrounded (two prongs) adapters.

• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similar qualiﬁed person in

order to avoid hazard.

WARNING

• Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in

the built-in structure, clear of obstruction.

• Do not use mechanical devices or other means to acceler-

ate the defrosting process, other than those recommended

by the manufacturer.

• Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

• Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage

compartments of the appliance, unless they are of the type

recommended by the manufacturer.

This unit is 153.5 cm (60.4 inches) wide by 83 cm (32.7 inches) high by 75.4 cm (29.7 inches) deep, please make sure

that you leave a minimum of 12.7 cm (5 inches) of space between the unit and all surrounding walls. Please make sure

that you leave 12.7 cm (5 inches) of space between all ventilation openings and any object near the unit. Do not cover

any of the ventilation openings with any material as the unit needs adequate space to breathe.

Installation Instructions

Remove exterior and interior packaging, wipe the outside thoroughly with a soft dry cloth and the inside with a wet, luke-

warm cloth. Avoid placing the unit in a narrow recess or near any heat source, direct sunlight, or moisture. Let air circulate

freely around the unit. Keep the rear of the freezer 5 inches away from the wall.

1. Locate the freezer in such a manner that extension cords are not necessary.

2. Due to lid and hinge arrangement, it is impossible to install your freezer directly against the wall. The spacing on the

back is essential for maintaining proper air circulation around the freezer.

3. Select a location with consistent year round temperatures. We do not recommend operating the freezer when sur-

rounding air temperature is below 5°C (41°F), though it will not harm the freezer to stand in any temperature below

5°C (41°F), provided the temperature control is set to avoid running the unit. In order to keep operating cost down,

do not place freezer near a stove, furnace, heat register or in direct sunlight. If the place selected for your freezer is

damp or moist, as in basements, place freezer on wooden blocks (two or three 2x4’s under entire length will ensure

adequate support).

LOCATION

CAUTION:

The hinge of a chest freezer is under tension. You must exercise EXTREME

CAUTION when attempting to remove, replace, and/or adjust.

1. FRONT MOUNTED THERMOSTAT: Easy access control knob controls the desired temperature inside the freezer.

The proper food storage temperature is -18°C (0°F). The compressor turns on as soon as the temperature rises

above the desired level.

2. DEFROST DRAIN: For easy removal of melted ice during defrosting. It is recommended that you defrost your freezer

once or twice a year.

3. LED LIGHT

4. RUST RESISTANT INTERIOR: Aluminum liner for long lasting durability (not pictured).

5. LOCK: When the lid is closed, insert the key and rotate it 90° counterclockwise. To unlock, insert the key and rotate

90° clockwise. To prevent a child from being entrapped, keep key(s) out of reach of children and not in the

vicinity of the freezer.

FEATURES

Operating Instructions

The freezer is ready to operate as received, when connected to the power supply. After connecting to the power supply,

close the lid and allow the freezer to operate. The unit will run from 1 to 2 hours (possibly longer, depending on conditions)

before operating temperature is reached. It will then start and stop (cycle) at fairly regular intervals. It is recommended

that food not be placed in the freezer until you are satisﬁed that it is operating (cycling) regularly and no ﬁnal adjustments

are necessary.

Once your freezer is starting and stopping (cycling) regularly, it is ready to freeze and store foods. The proper food stor-

age temperature is -18°C (0°F). Do not operate freezer at temperatures below -19°C (-3°F), as this does not improve food

preservation and only results in longer unit (cycle) running time. It is not advisable to freeze more than 25 kg (50 lbs.) of

food in any 24 hour period. It will take 15 or more hours of unit running to freeze this amount of food.

When adding fresh, unfrozen food packages, store them against the walls. The sensing bulb of the thermostat is fastened

to the liner wall on the “insulation side” of the freezer. In view of the value of the contents of your freezer, it is advisable to

inspect contents and check freezer operation regularly.

Note:

This unit is not designed for outside installation, including installation anywhere that is not temperature controlled (garag-

es, porches, carports, etc.). Before connecting the appliance to an electrical power supply, let it stand 6 hours. This will

reduce the possibility of malfunctions in the cooling system due to transport handling.

STARTING THE FREEZER

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

The temperature of the freezer compartment is controlled by adjusting/ setting the thermostat control knob, located on the

front of the freezer cabinet. To start the freezer and achieve maximum cooling quickly:

• Turn the temperature control knob clockwise to the furthest (maximum) setting on the darker blue (wide) section of the

graduated control dial.

• Allow the freezer to run at this setting for 3-4 hours.

• When maximum cooling is achieved, turn back the temperature control knob setting to the 2 o’clock position on the

graduated blue control dial. See Fig.1.

• To turn off the freezer (no cooling), rotate the control knob to the “0” (off) position. See Fig.2.

Fig. 1 Fig. 2

Care and Maintenance

DEFROSTING

Moisture will be introduced to the liner during lid openings and the addition of unfrozen food packages. The moisture will

accumulate in the form of frost, mostly on the upper part of the liner walls.

Accumulation of frost up to 6 mm (1/4”) on the liner is not harmful. However, when it becomes heavier, it should be

removed as it slows cooling, resulting in longer running (cycle) times. Under average conditions, defrosting will not be

necessary more than once or twice a year. Besides frost, food particles and other foreign substances may accumulate

and soil the liner.

For proper defrosting and cleaning, the following method is recommended:

1. Unplug freezer.

2. Quickly remove all frozen food and store in baskets, cartons or other suitable containers. Keep food well covered with

blankets to avoid excessive temperature rise (ensuring food does not defrost).

3. With the help of a wooden spatula or a plastic defrosting scoop, remove the frost and ice off the liner walls as soon

as it becomes loose (approximately 15 minutes from start) - do not use any sharp instruments as this may result in

damage to the liner wall and/or sealed system, voiding any and/or all warranties which may be in effect. Using a piece

of cloth soaked in hot water, the process can be considerably accelerated. As soon as the ice has fallen to the bottom,

remove it. Do not let it melt in the freezer as this will increase defrosting and cleaning time.

CLEANING

Now the liner is ready to be cleaned. Sprinkle baking soda on the bottom and walls. This will help in cleaning and with

odor removal. In order to retain the ﬁnish of the freezer cabinet inside and outside, wash only with warm water and mild

soap, then rinse and dry. Do not under any circumstances use a gritty soap or a kitchen scouring cleanser, as these tend

to scratch the ﬁnish.

VACATION TIME

For short vacation periods, leave the control knob at its normal setting. During longer absences,

1. remove all food,

2. disconnect power cord from electrical outlet,

3. defrost and clean the freezer thoroughly,

4. leave lid open to avoid possible formations of condensation, mold or odors.

ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL FAILURE

In the event of mechanical or electrical failure of the freezer, contact a service agent immediately and give complete infor-

mation of your freezer, the model number and serial number. These are shown on the serial plate located on the exterior

(rear) cabinet wall.

POWER FAILURE

Most power failures are corrected within an hour or two and will not affect your freezer temperatures. However, you should

minimize the number of lid openings while the power is off. During power failures of longer duration, take steps to protect

your food.

IF YOU MOVE

Remove or securely fasten down all loose items inside the unit. To avoid damaging the leveling legs, turn them all the way

into the base.

Care and Maintenance

SOME IMPORTANT RULES FOR THE CORRECT USE OF

THE FREEZER

• Never place hot foods in the freezer.

• Never place spoiled foods in the unit.

• Don’t overload the unit.

• Don’t open the lid unless necessary.

• Should the freezer be stored without use for long periods, it

is suggested, after careful cleaning, to leave the lid open to

allow the air to circulate inside the unit in order to avoid the

possibility of condensation, mold or odors.

Troubleshooting

Occasionally, a minor problem may arise, and a service call may not be necessary - use this troubleshooting guide for

a possible solution. If the unit continues to operate improperly, call an authorized service depot or Danby’s Toll Free
