please follow the instructions below to help prevent
accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Freezer:
Ŷ Take off the freezer lid.
Ŷ Leave the baskets in place so that children may not
easily climb inside.
PROPER DISPOSAL OF YOUR OLD APPLIANCE
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. For
personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard
3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the outlet is properly
grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it
is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
The freezer should always be plugged into its own
individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating
that matches the rating plate.
A 115 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded
electrical supply is required. This provides the best
performance and also prevents overloading house
wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated wires.
Never unplug your freezer by pulling on the power
cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out from
the outlet.
Immediately discontinue use of a damaged supply
cord. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by a qualified service professional with an
authorized service part from the manufacturer.
When moving the freezer away from the wall, be
careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.

Defrosting Instructions
In most climates, defrosting will be necessary only about
twice a year.

To remove frost, scrape with a plastic or wood spatula or
scraper.
Do not use an ice pick, metal, or sharp-edged
instrument as it may damage or scratch the freezer.
Do not use boiling water as it may damage the freezer.
Do not use any electrical device in defrosting your
freezer.

3. Place a tray (not included) in front of the freezer,
beneath the exterior drain plug to collect the water.
Pull out the drain plug about 1" (2.5 cm) until the
drain hole on the plug shows completely. Turn the
drain plug clockwise until the arrow is pointed down.

CARE AND CLEANING
Care And Cleaning
Cleaning Your Freezer
ŶOutside. Protect the paint finish. The finish on the
outside of the freezer is a high quality, baked-on paint
finish. With proper care, it will stay new-looking and
rust-free for years. Apply a coat of appliance polish
wax when the freezer is new and then at least twice a
year. Appliance polish wax also works well to remove
tape residue from freezer surfaces.
Keep the finish clean. Wipe with a clean cloth
lightly dampened with appliance polish wax or mild

TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
Troubleshooting Tips... Before you call for service
Problem Possible Causes What To Do
Moisture forms on
outside of cabinet
Not unusual during periods of
high humidity.
Wipe surface dry.
Lid may not be seating properly,
causing cold air from inside the
freezer to meet warm moist air
from the outside.
See Preparing to install the freezer.
Lid won’t fully close by
itself
Package holding lid open. Move package to a different location.
Slow starting time after
being off
Built-in overload protection. This is normal after being off.
Excessive frost buildup Lid left open. Check to see if package is holding lid open.
Too frequent or too long lid
openings.
Open the lid less often.
Not unusual during periods of
high humidity.
Wipe surface dry.
Freezer external surface
temperature is warm
The external freezer walls can be
as much as 30°F (16.7° C) warmer
than room temperature.
This is normal while the compressor works
to transfer heat from inside the freezer
cabinet.
Louder sound levels
whenever freezer is on
Modern freezers have increased
storage capacity and more stable
temperatures. They require a high-
efficiency compressor.
This is normal. When the surrounding noise
level is low, you might hear the compressor
running while it cools the interior.
Higher sound levels
when compressor comes
on
Freezer operates at higher
pressures during the start of the
ON cycle.
This is normal. Sound will level off or
disappear as freezer continues to run.
Popping or cracking
sound when compressor
comes on
Metal parts undergo expansion
and contraction, as in hot water
pipes.
This is normal. Sound will level off or
disappear as freezer continues to run.
Bubbling or gurgling
sound, like boiling water
Refrigerant (used to cool freezer)
is circulating throughout the
system.
This is normal.
Moisture forms on inside
freezer walls
Weather is hot and humid, which
increases internal rate of frost
buildup.
This is normal.
Lid may not be seating properly. See Preparing to install the freezer.
Lid is kept open too long, or is
opened too frequently.
Open the lid less often.
Odors in freezer Interior needs to be cleaned. Clean interior with sponge, warm water and
baking soda.
Foods with strong odors are in the
freezer.
Cover the food tightly.
