Unpacking Your Freezer

1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive tape

holding the freezer accessories inside and outside.

2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed

materials before powering on the freezer.

Adjusting Your Freezer

• Your freezer is designed for freestanding installation only. It should not be recessed

or built-in.

• Place the freezer on a surface strong enough to support it fully loaded.

• When moving the freezer, never tilt it more than a 45-degree angle. This could

damage the compressor and the sealed system.

• If the freezer is tilted let it stand in an upright position for at least 24 hours prior to

plugging in. This is to allow the refrigerant to settle.

Proper Air Circulation

• To assure your freezer works at the maximum eﬃciency it was designed for, you

should install it in a location where there is proper air circulation, plumbing and

electrical connections.

• The following are recommended clearances around the freezer:

Sides……………4” (102mm)

Back..................4” (102mm)

Top....................4” (102mm)

6INSTALLING YOUR FREEZER

Operating Your Freezer

• Once the freezer is in its proper place, plug it in an electrical outlet having 115 volts

and 15 amps.

• Set the temperature, on the temperature control knob. “1” being the warmest and

“7” being the coldest. Initially set the temperature on “4”. Place food inside the

freezer. After using the freezer for 24 hours set the freezer to your desired setting.

• In case you unplug your freezer or experience an electrical outage, allow 5 minutes

before plugging it back in.

General Features

Adjustable temperature dial:

Your freezer will automatically maintain the temperature level you select. The

temperature control dial has 7 settings plus OFF. “1” is the warmest, “7” is the

coldest. Turning the dial to OFF stops cooling the freezer. Set the dial to “4” and

allow 24 hours to pass before adjusting the temperature to your needs.

Normal Operating Sounds You May Hear

• Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the result of the

refrigerant circulating through the cooling coils.

• The thermostat control will click when it cycles on and oﬀ.

Defrosting

• For most eﬃcient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost whenever

the frost becomes 1/4” thick. Never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove

the frost, as it may damage the cooling coils. (A punctured coil will void the

warranty). Use only a plastic scraper. Do not use Mboiling water as it may damage

the unit.

• Remove frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to protect the food.

• Turn the temperature control to OFF position and unplug the unit. Defrosting

usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster keep the freezer door open.

NOTE: If the freezer has been placed in a horizontal or tilted position for any period

of time wait 24 hours before plugging the unit in.

defrost drain outward. Water that has accumulated at the bottom of the freezer

during defrosting will drain into the pan.

• When defrosting is complete, wipe the interior of the freezer with a soft cloth.

Plug in power cord back into the electrical outlet.

• Reset the temperature control to the desired setting.

• Return the food into the freezer.

Leveling Your Freezer

of your freezer. After properly placing your freezer in its ﬁnal position, you can

level your freezer.

• Leveling legs can be adjusted by turning them counterclockwise to raise your

freezer or by turning them clockwise to lower your freezer. The freezer door will

close easier when leveling legs are extended.

8FREEZER FEATURES AND USE

Food Storage Information

Frozen Food:

• Wipe containers before storing to avoid needless spills.

• Hot food should be allowed to cool before storing in the freezer. This will prevent

unnecessary energy use.

• When storing meats, keep in the original packaging or rewrap as necessary.

• Proper freezer storage requires correct packaging. All foods must be in packages,

which do not allow the ﬂow of air or moisture in, or out. Improper storage will

result in odor and taste transfer and will result in the drying out of the improperly

packaged food.

• Follow package or container instructions for proper storage.

• Packaging Recommendations:

Plastic containers with air tight lids

Heavy duty aluminum foil

Plastic wrap made from saran ﬁlm

Self-sealing plastic bags

• Do not refreeze defrosted/thawed foods.

• It is recommended that the freezing date be marked on the packaging.

These are some suggestions for safe storage:

• TV Dinners 3 - 4 Months

• Fresh Shrimp, scallops, crawﬁsh 3 - 6 Months

• Hamburger & stew meats 3 - 4 Months

• Ground Turkey, veal, pork 3 - 4 Months

• Chops 4 - 6 Months

Gaskets must be kept clean and pliable to assure a proper seal.

• Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge side of gaskets will keep the gasket

pliable and assure a good seal.

• Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or other

causes. Remove the power cord from AC outlet when a power outage occurs.

When power has been restored, replug power cord to AC outlet. If outage is for

a prolonged period, inspect and discard spoiled or thawed food in freezer. Clean

DIAL to the OFF position and clean the door gaskets according to “General

cleaning” section. Prop doors open, so air can circulate inside. When moving

always move the freezer vertically. Do not move with the unit lying down. Possible

damage to the sealed system could occur.
