Temperature Control

• Located at the lower right hand side of the cabinet.

• At setting No. 4, the temperature will be at or near 0°F (-17.8°C) under

normal operating conditions.

• Turning the temperature control all the way to the left or past "0" until it

clicks will switch off power to the compressor.

• To adjust the thermostat control: turn control to higher number for colder

temperatures, lower number for less cold temperatures. It is recommended

that you adjust by one numerical increment at a time, allowing several hours

for temperatures to stabilize between increments.

• Some of the models are equipped with preset thermostats which do not have a knob.

• Some models may have the temperature control mounted on cabinet rear.

Freezer Features

Sliding Basket (on some models)

• Number of baskets can vary with different models.

• Use your sliding basket(s) to keep frequently used

food within easy reach.

• Due to the lid and hinge arrangement, it is impossible to install the freezer directly against the wall.

The spacing on the back is essential for maintaining proper air circulation around the freezer. It is

recommended that you leave a 3 inch (75 mm) space on all sides of the freezer.

• Locate the freezer where it will be convenient to use and away from direct sunlight or heat

sources such as the range, dishwasher, laundry equipment or furnace. Freezers are designed to

operate efficiently between 4°C to 32°C (40°F to 90°F). Temperatures above or below this range

will cause the freezer to operate less efficiently. Additional compressor heaters are not

recommended

• If the place selected for your freezer is damp or moist, as in some basements, place freezer on

wooden blocks. (Two or three boards under entire length will assure adequate support.)

• The freezer should never be placed on a carpeted floor.

• In order for your freezer to work properly, it must be level with the floor. If not, you may add metal or

wood shims between feet pads and floor.

Note: the floor must be strong enough to support a fully loaded freezer.

• If there is tape residue on the freezer, remove with a mixture of warm water and mild detergent or

touch the residue with the sticky side of tape already removed.

• DO NOT REMOVE THE SERIAL PLATE.

Starting the Freezer:

• The freezer is ready to operate when you receive it. Just connect the cord to the power outlet.

• Turn the temperature control knob (located at the lower right hand side of the cabinet) to No. 4. This

setting is normal for providing safe long term freezing. For colder temperatures turn to a higher

setting.

• NOTE: Some models have a preset temperature and no control knob.

• Allow the freezer to operate for approximately 2 hours before placing frozen food inside.

Cool Down Period

• To ensure proper food storage, allow 4 hours for freezer to cool down completely. The freezer will

run continuously for the first several hours. Already frozen foods may be placed in after the first few

hours of operation, however you must wait 4 hours before placing in any unfrozen food.

IIMPORTANT: Freeze approximately 22 pounds (10 kg) of fresh room temperature food at one time.

There is no restriction for adding already frozen food. Distribute packages to be frozen evenly

throughout the freezer. When freezing food, it is not necessary to set control knob to colder setting.
