Unpacking Your Freezer
1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and
all adhesive tape holding the freezer accessories inside and outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials
before powering on the freezer.
Adjusting Your Freezer
• Your freezer is designed for freestanding installation only. It should
not be recessed or built-in.
• Place the freezer on a surface strong enough to support it fully loaded.
• When moving the freezer, never tilt it more than a 45-degree angle.
This could damage the compressor and the sealed system.
• If the freezer is tilted let it stand in an upright position for at least 24
hours prior to plugging in. This is to allow the refrigerant to settle.
Proper Air Circulation
• To assure your freezer works at the maximum efficiency it was
designed for, you should install it in a location where there is proper
air circulation, plumbing and electrical connections.
• The following are recommended clearances around the freezer:
Sides……………4” (102mm)
Back..................4” (102mm)

Your freezer will automatically maintain the temperature level you select. The
temperature control dial has 7 settings plus OFF. “1” is the warmest, “7” is the
coldest. Turning the dial to OFF stops cooling the freezer. Set the dial to “4” and
allow 24 hours to pass before adjusting the temperature to your needs.

Food Storage Information
Frozen Food:
• Wipe containers before storing to avoid needless spills.
• Hot food should be allowed to cool before storing in the freezer. This will prevent
unnecessary energy use.

which do not allow the flow of air or moisture in, or out. Improper storage will
result in odor and taste transfer and will result in the drying out of the improperly
packaged food.

• Packaging Recommendations:
Plastic containers with air tight lids
Heavy duty aluminum foil
Plastic wrap made from saran film
Self-sealing plastic bags
• Do not refreeze defrosted/thawed foods.
• It is recommended that the freezing date be marked on the packaging.

• TV Dinners 3 - 4 Months
• Fresh Shrimp, scallops, crawfish 3 - 6 Months
• Hamburger & stew meats 3 - 4 Months
• Ground Turkey, veal, pork 3 - 4 Months
