Leveling Instructions for all Refrigerator/Freezer Pair:

•Remove two leg levelers provided in literature bag. While unit is lying on its back for wood skid removal, install both leg levelers in rear of unit.

•Level door of first unit using all four levelers and slide unit into place. Recheck for levelness and adjust if necessary.

•Measure distance from floor to bottom of door on first unit. Adjust and level second unit so door height matches.

•Leg Level Adjustments

•One full turn of all four leg levelers will raise door 5/32”.

•One full turn of both front leg levelers will raise door 3/16” and tilt top of door back 7/16”.

•One full turn of both rear leg levelers will lower door 1/32” and tilt top of door forward 7/16”.

•One full turn of both side leg levelers will raise door 3/16” and tilt top of door 3/8”.

•Slide second unit into place leaving a minimum gap of 3/16” between units for door swing clearance.

•This last step may require at least one extraction of the second unit to properly align units in a “built-in” application.

TEMPERATURE CONTROLS

COOL DOWN PERIOD

•For safe food storage, allow 4 hours for the freezer to cool down completely. The freezer will run continuously for the first several hours. Foods that are already frozen may be placed in the freezer after the first few hours of operation. Unfrozen foods should NOT be loaded into the freezer until the freezer has operated for 4 hours.

•When loading the freezer, freeze only 3 pounds of fresh food per cubic foot of freezer space at one time. Distribute packages to be frozen evenly throughout the freezer. It is not necessary to turn the control knob to a colder setting while freezing food.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

The temperature control is located inside the freezer on upright models. The temperature is factory preset to provide satisfactory food storage temperatures. However, the temperature control is adjustable to provide a range of temperatures for

your personal satisfaction. If a colder

temperature is desired, turn the temperature control knob toward COLDEST and allow several hours for temperatures to stabilize between adjustments.
