SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Read all of the instructions before using this appliance.

When using this appliance, always exercise basic safety

precautions, including the following:

1) Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this use

and care guide.

2) This freezer must be properly installed in accordance with the

installation instructions before it is used. See grounding instructions in the

installation section.

3) Never unplug your freezer by pulling on the power cord. Always grasp

the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.

4) Repair or replace immediately, all electric service cords that have become

frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or

abrasion damage along its length, the plug or the connector end.

5) Unplug your freezer before cleaning or before making any repairs.

Note: If for any reason this product requires service, we strongly

recommend that a certified technician performs the service.

6) Do not use any electrical device or any sharp instrument in

defrosting your freezer.

7) If your old freezer is not being used, we recommend that you remove the

doors. This will reduce the possibility of danger to children.

8) After your freezer is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces in the

freezer compartment, particularly when hands are damp or wet. Skin may

adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.

9) Do not refreeze foods, which have been thawed completely. The United

States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69

reads: "…You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if they

still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold-below 40˚F".

"…Thawed ground meats, poultry, or fish that have any off-odor or off-

color should not be refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream

should be discarded. If the odor or color of any food is poor or

questionable, discard it. The food may be dangerous to eat."

"…Even partial thawing and re-freezing reduce the eating quality of

foods, particularly fruits, vegetables, and prepared foods. The eating

quality of red meats is affected less than that of many other foods. Use

refrozen foods as soon as possible, to save as much of its eating quality

as you can."

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.

• Your freezer is designed for freestanding installation only.

It should not be recessed or built-in.

• Place the freezer on a floor 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. This is to allow the refrigerant to settle.

• 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 refrigerator:

Sides……………4" (102mm)

Top....................4" (102mm)

Electrical Requirement

• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet)

with proper grounding to power the freezer.

• Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding in

order to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous practice

since it provides no effective grounding for the freezer and may result in

shock hazard.

• Do not install your freezer in any location not properly insulated or

heated e.g. garage etc. Your freezer was not designed to operate in

temperature settings below 55˚ Fahrenheit.

• Select a suitable location for the freezer on a hard even

surface away from direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators,

baseboard heaters, cooking appliances etc. Any floor unevenness

should be corrected.

Freezer Features And Use

General Features

Adjustable temperature dial:

Your freezer will automatically maintain

the temperature level you select. The

temperature control dial has 3 settings

plus OFF. “I” is the warmest, “III” is the

coldest. Turning the dial to OFF stops

cooling the freezer. Set the dial to “II”

and allow 24 hours to pass before

adjusting the temperature to your needs.

(Note: If the freezer has been

placed in a horizontal or

tilted position for any period

of time wait 24 hours before

plugging the unit in.)

English

• Once the freezer is in its proper place, plug it in an electrical outlet

having 115 volts and 15 amps.

• Set the temperature, on the temperature control knob. “I” being the

warmest and “III” being the coldest. Initially set the temperature on “II”.

Place food inside the freezer (green light will come on indicating that the

freezer is in operation). After using the freezer for 24 hours set the

freezer to your desired setting.

• In case you unplug your freezer or experience an electrical outage,

allow 5 minutes before plugging it back in.

Operating Your Freezer

• Defrost whenever the frost becomes 1/4" thick. Never use a sharp or

metallic instrument to remove the frost as it may damage the cooling

coils. (A punctured coil will void the warranty)

• Turn the temperature control to OFF position and unplug the unit.

Remove the drain plug from the inside of the freezer (see fig. #1a).

Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster keep the

freezer door open.

• For draining, place a tray beneath the outer drain plug. Pull out the

drain dial (see fig. #1b) and rotate it so that the arrow points down-

ward. This will let the water flow out into the tray. When done, push the

drain dial in and turn the arrow to the up position. Re-plug the drain

plug inside the freezer compartment.

Note: Monitor the container under the drain to avoid overflow.

• Wipe the interior of the freezer and replace the electrical plug in

the electrical outlet.

• Reset the temperature control to the desired setting.

Defrosting and Draining The Freezer

English

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.

• When storing meats, keep in the original

packaging or rewrap as necessary.

• Proper freezer storage requires correct packaging. All foods must be in

packages, 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.

• Follow package or container instructions for proper storage.

• 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.

Food Storage Information

• Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the result of

the refrigerant circulating through the cooling coils.

• The thermostat control will click when it cycles on and off.

Proper Freezer Care and Cleaning

Cleaning and Maintenance

Door Gaskets:

Warning: To avoid electric shock always unplug your

freezer before cleaning. Ignoring this warning may

result in death or injury.

Caution: Before using cleaning products, always read and

follow manufacturer’s instructions and warnings to

avoid personal injury or product damage.

General:

• Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of

baking soda mixed with warm water. Use sponge or

soft cloth, dampened with the cleaning solution, to

wipe down your freezer.

• Rinse with clean warm water and dry with a soft cloth.

• Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia,

chlorine bleach,concentrated detergents, solvents or

metal scouring pads. SOME of these chemicals may

dissolve, damage and/or discolor your freezer.

• Clean door gaskets every three months according to

general instructions. Gaskets must be kept clean and

pliable to assure a proper seal.

• Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge side of

gaskets will keep the gasket pliable and assure

a good seal.

English

11

• Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or

other causes. Remove the power cord from AC outlet when a power

outage occurs. When power has been restored, replug power cord to

AC outlet. If outage is for a prolonged period, inspect and discard

spoiled or thawed food in freezer. Clean freezer before reusing.

• For long vacations or absences, empty food from freezer, move the

temperature DIAL to the OFF position and clean the door gaskets

according to "General cleaning" section. Prop door open, so air can

circulate inside. When moving always move the freezer

vertically. Do not move with the unit lying down. Possible damage to the

sealed system could occur.

MESURES DE SECURITE

Lire l’ensemble des instructions avant d’utiliser l’appareil.

Lors de l’utilisation de cet appareil, prendre toutes les

mesures de sécurité de base, y compris les suivantes:

1) N’utiliser cet appareil que pour l’usage pour lequel il est prévu, tel qu’il est

indiqué dans le guide d’utilisation et d’entretien.

2) Ce congélateur doit être correctement installé conformément aux

instructions d’installation avant d’être utilisé. Consulter les instructions

de mise à la terre du chapitre Installation.

3) Ne jamais tirer sur le cordon d’alimentation pour débrancher le

congélateur. Toujours saisir fermement la fiche et la retirer

complètement de la prise.

4) Réparer ou remplacer immédiatement tout cordon électrique effiloché ou

endommagé d’une quelconque manière. Ne pas utiliser un cordon fissuré,

abrasé ou dont la prise ou le connecteur est endommagé.

5) Débrancher le congélateur avant de le nettoyer ou d’effectuer des

réparations. Remarque: Si ce produit doit faire l’objet d’une

maintenance pour quelque raison que ce soit, il est vivement

recommandé de confier cette tâche à un technicien agréé.

6) Ne pas utiliser d’appareils électriques ou d’objets pointus pour dégivrer le

réfrigérateur.

7) Si vous n’avez plus l’usage de votre ancien congélateur, nous vous

conseillons d’en retirer les portes. Ceci permet d’éviter tout danger

potentiel pour les enfants.

8) Une fois le congélateur en fonctionnement, ne pas toucher les surfaces

froides du compartiment de congélation, en particulier avec des mains

mouillées ou humides. La peau risquerait d’adhérer à ces surfaces

extrêmement froides.

9) Ne pas recongeler les aliments qui ont été complètement décongelés. Le

bulletin Maisons et Jardins du Ministère de l’Agriculture des États-Unis n°

69 stipule que: « ...Les aliments congelés peuvent être recongelés en toute

sécurité s’ils contiennent toujours des cristaux de glace ou si leur

température reste inférieure à 4,5°C".

« …Les viandes hachées, la volaille et le poisson présentant une odeur

désagréable ou une couleur suspecte ne doivent ni être recongelés, ni être

consommés. La crème glacée dégelée doit être jetée. Tout aliment

présentant une odeur ou couleur douteuse doit être jeté. L’ingestion d’un

aliment de ce type peut s’avérer dangereuse. »

Français

2

« …La décongélation ou la recongélation, même partielle, fait diminuer

les qualités gustatives des aliments, en particulier des fruits, légumes et

plats préparés. La qualité gustative des viandes rouges est affectée à un

bien moindre degré que celle de nombreux autres aliments. Utiliser les

aliments recongelés dès que possible, afin de conserver la majeure partie

de leurs qualités gustatives. »

10) Ce congélateur ne doit être ni encastré, ni enclos dans un placard. Il a

été conçu pour être installé tel qu’il se présente.

11) Ne pas faire marcher le congélateur en présence de fumées pouvant

entraîner une explosion.
