Unpacking and Leveling - Upright Freezers
Before starting the freezer, follow these important first steps:
Installation
• Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical outlet,
• For the most efficient operation, 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,
• Allow space around the unit forproper air circulation, Leave a 3 inch (75 mm)
space on all sides of freezer, for adequate circulation.
Leveling
Freezer must have all bottom corners resting firmly on a solid floor. The floor must be
strong enough to support a fully loaded freezer. Check the cabinet with a level from
side to side. After discarding crating screws and wood base, level the freezer cabinet.
Once leveled, slightly raise adjustment of front feet, so door closes easily
when opened about halfway.
Cleaning
• Wash any removable parts, and the interior and exterior with mild detergent
and warm water. Wipe dry. Do not use harsh cleaners on these surfaces.
• Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments, which can scratch the
appliance surface when removing adhesive labels. Any glue left from tape or
energy label 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
serial plate.
