NOTE: The exterior walls of the freezer may become quite warm as the compressor works to transfer heat from the inside. Temperatures as much as 30° F warmer than room temperature can be expected. For this reason it is particu- larly important in hotter climates to allow enough space for air circulation around your freezer.
LEVELING
The freezer must have all bottom corners resting firmly on a solid floor. The floor must be strong enough to support a fully loaded freezer. NOTE: It is VERY IMPORTANT for your freezer to be level in order to function properly. If the freezer is not leveled during installation, the door may be misaligned and not close or seal properly, causing cooling, frost, or moisture problems.
To Level Upright Models:
After discarding crating screws and wood base, use a carpenter's level to level the freezer from
Wash any removable parts, the freezer 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 the tape can be removed with a mixture of warm water and mild deter-
gent, or touch the residue with the sticky side of tape already removed. Do not remove the serial plate.
