Electrical Requirements

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

Before you move your freezer into its final location, it is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.

Recommended grounding method

A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your freezer be provided. Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension cord.

NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning, or removing a light bulb, turn the Temperature Control to the OFF position as shown and then disconnect the freezer from the electrical source.

FREEZER USE

Using the Control

Turn the freezer temperature control to 4. This setting is designed to maintain the temperature at or near 0°F (-17.8°C) under normal operating conditions.

Allow the freezer to cool 6 to 8 hours before filling with frozen food. Let the freezer cool overnight before adding large amounts of unfrozen food. Do not add more than 2 to 3 lbs (0.907 to 1.360 kg) of unfrozen food per cubic foot of freezer space.

NOTE: When the freezer is first started, the compressor will run constantly until the cabinet is cooled. It may take 6 to 8 hours (or longer), depending on room temperature and the number of times the freezer lid is opened.

After the cabinet is cooled, the compressor will turn on and off as needed to keep the freezer at the proper temperature.

The outside of your freezer may feel warm. This is normal. The freezer’s design and main function is to remove heat from the contents and air inside the freezer. The heat is transferred to the room air, making the outside of the freezer feel warm.

Adjusting the Control

Turn control to a higher number for colder temperatures.

Turn control to a lower number for less cold temperatures.

Defrost Drain Cover

(on some models)

1.Remove defrost drain cover from the literature package.
