Installing Your Freezer

Replace or repair all electric service cords that have become damaged or frayed.

Never unplug your freezer by pulling on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.

Be careful not to roll over or damage the cord, when moving the freezer.

Unplug your freezer before making repairs or cleaning. It is our recommendation that servicing be done by a qualified technician.

Unplug your freezer or turn power off at the circuit breaker or fuse box in order to avoid touching a live wire, when replacing a burned-out light bulb. Turning the control to OFF turns off the compressor, but does not disconnect power to other electrical components.

Do not pinch, knot, or bend power cord in any manner.

If your electricity goes off follow this procedure:

Call your power company to see how long the power will be out.

If service is to be interrupted for less than 24 hours, keep freezer closed. This will help food stay frozen.

If service is to be interrupted for more than 24 hours, either remove food and store in frozen food locker or another freezer.

PRONG FROM THE PLUG.

To prevent the freezer from being turned off accidentally,

do not plug unit into an outlet controlled by a wall switch or pull cord.

If voltage varies by 10 % or more, the performance of the freezer may be affected. Operating the freezer with insufficient power can damage the motor. The warranty does not cover this damage. If you suspect your household voltage is high or low, consult your power company for testing.

Picking a Location:

Locate the freezer so that extension cords are not necessary and the freezer is away from any flammables such as gasoline.

Make sure that the floor you choose to place your freezer on will support the weight of the freezer when it is full.
