Due to possible variations in line voltage (caused by overloading of circuits), it is advisable to install a separate fuse circuit from the meter panel. This will help to eliminate current fluctuation which might cause motor trouble.
IMPORTANT WARNING: An empty refrigerator is a very dangerous attraction to children. Remove either the gasket or lid from unused appliances, or take some other action that will guarantee it harmless.
DANGER: Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:
•Take off the doors.
•Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
DON’T WAIT! DO IT NOW!

This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD. Use an exclusive wall outlet. Do not connect your freezer to extension cords or together with any other appliance in the same wall outlet. Do not splice the cord.
INSTALLATION
POINTS TO CONSIDER WHEN LOCATING YOUR FREEZER:
1)Locate the freezer in such a manner that extension cords are not necessary.
2)Due to lid and hinge arrangement, it is impossible to install your freezer directly against the wall. The spacing on the back is essential for maintaining proper air circulation around the freezer.
3)Select a location with reasonable year round temperatures. We do not recommend operating the freezer when surrounding air temperature is below 0°C (32°F), though it will not harm the freezer to stand in any temperature below 0°C (32°F), provided the temperature control is set to avoid running the unit. In order to keep operating cost down, do not place freezer near a stove, furnace, heat register or in direct sunlight. If the place selected for your freezer is damp or moist, as in basements, place freezer on wooden blocks (two or three 2x4’s under entire length will ensure adequate support).
