IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
■
■ This freezer must be properly installed and
located in accordance with the Installation
Instructions before it is used.
■
■ Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang
on the shelves in the freezer. They could damage
the freezer and seriously injure themselves.
■
■ After your freezer is in operation, do not touch
the cold surfaces, particularly when hands are
damp or wet. Skin may stick to these extremely
cold surfaces.
■
■ Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
■
■ Unplug the freezer before cleaning, making
repairs or changing the light bulb.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing be
performed by a qualified individual.
■
■ Turning the control to the OFF position does
not remove power to the light circuit on models
with interior light.
■
■ Do not refreeze frozen foods which have
thawed completely.
■
■ The maximum amount of food your freezer is
designed to freeze at one time is approximately
3 pounds (1.5 kg) per cubic foot of freezer
capacity. In normal position, your freezer’s
temperature control will maintain sufficiently
low temperatures in the freezer to freeze
recommended quantities of food.
■
■ Caution should be used when removing the door
of a freezer. Particular caution should be used
when removing the lid of a Chest freezer, as most
Chest freezer lids are under spring tension.
Contact the manufacturer’s representative for
a method of safe removal.
■
■ This product is UL471 recognized.

USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against
the use of an extension cord.
However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed (in the United
States) or a CSA-listed (in Canada), 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding
type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and 120 volts.
DANGER! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE FREEZER
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
refrigerators and freezers are still dangerous…even
if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting
rid of your old refrigerator or freezer, please follow
the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
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.
Refrigerants
All refrigeration products contain refrigerants,
which under federal law must be removed prior
to product disposal. If you are getting rid of an
old refrigeration product, check with the company
handling the disposal about what to do.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
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.
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, 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.
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.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords that
have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not
use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either end.
When moving the freezer away from the wall, be
careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

Small objects are a choke hazard to children.
Refrigerated Cabinet Shelves (on some models)
These shelves contain cooling coils to
freeze foods quickly and allow cold air
to constantly circulate throughout
the freezer.
Key-Ejecting Lock (on some models)
The key for the spring-loaded lock is
automatically ejected–key will not remain in
lock in either the open or closed position.
Keep the key out of reach of children and away

Troubleshooting TipsOperating InstructionsSafety Instructions Installation Instructions
In most climates, defrosting will be
necessary only about twice a year.
To have your freezer operate most efficiently,
do not permit more than 1/2 ″ (13 mm) of
frost to accumulate on the shelves.
To remove frost, scrape with a plastic or
wood spatula or scraper.
Do not use an ice pick or sharp-edged
instrument as it may damage or scratch the
freezer.
Do not use any electrical device in
defrosting your freezer.
For Complete Defrosting
Turn the temperature control to OFF
and unplug the freezer.
Remove all food and place it in
corrugated boxes, insulated bags,
picnic coolers, etc. Use towels and
newspapers for insulation as needed.
With the door/lid open, use pans of
hot water to speed loosening of frost.
Remove large pieces before they melt.
On models without a defrost drain,
place towels or newspapers on the
freezer bottom to catch the frost. The
frost will loosen and fall. Remove towels
and/or newspapers.
a. Some Upright models have a hose
adapter and a drain hose behind the
base grille which carry the defrost
water out from the freezer. Remove
the base grille; then remove the drain
plug and let the defrost water drain
into a pan.
To remove the base grille (on some
models), use a screwdriver to press the
tab toward the center of the grille, then
pull the grille away from the cabinet.
b. Some Chest models have a defrost
water drain at the front and a hose
adapter that is packaged in a bag in
the bottom of the freezer. Remove
the drain cap on the front of the
freezer, insert the hose connector
and attach the hose. Remove the
drain plug inside the cabinet.
NOTE: Water may drip from the
back flange of the lid cover during
defrosting. This is normal. Ice builds
up in the lid insulation when the lid is
open for adding or removing food,
and melts during the defrosting
operation.
Sponge excess water from the bottom
of the freezer as it collects to prevent
overflowing.
After defrosting, clean the inside of the
freezer (see Care and Cleaning).
a. On Upright models, be sure to
replace the drain plug and return the
drain tube to its position. Replace the
base grille.
b. On Chest models, replace the drain
plug inside the cabinet and the cap
on the defrost drain. Fold over and
dry the gasket on the hinge side of
the lid.
Plug in the freezer. Return the
temperature control to its previous
position and return food to the freezer.

Care and cleaning of the freezer.
Cleaning Your Freezer
■ 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 liquid dishwashing
detergent. Dry and polish with a clean,
soft cloth. Do not wipe the freezer with
a soiled dishwashing cloth or wet towel.
Do not use scouring pads, powdered
cleaners, bleach, or cleaners containing
bleach.
CAUTION: Care should be taken in moving the
freezer away from the wall. All types of floor
coverings can be damaged, particularly cushioned
coverings and those with embossed surfaces.
■ Inside. Clean the inside of your freezer at
least once a year. We recommend that the
freezer be unplugged before cleaning. If
this is not practical, wring excess moisture
out of sponge or cloth when cleaning in
the vicinity of switches, lights or controls.
Use warm water and baking soda
solution–about a tablespoon of baking
soda to a quart of water. Rinse thoroughly
with water and wipe dry. Do not use
cleaning powders or other abrasive
cleaners.
An open box of baking soda in the
freezer will absorb stale freezer odors.
Change the box every three months.
8
No Defrosting (on No-Frost models)
You never have to defrost your new
No-Frost freezer. It has been pre-set at
the factory to defrost itself automatically.
Package labels always remain clearly legible,
and packages will remain easy to separate
and remove.
During defrosting, a slight noise may be
noticed if the door is opened while the
freezer is in the automatic defrosting cycle.
To Remove the Freezer Door (on Upright models)
Remove the plastic hinge cover by
either lifting it off or folding it back
(depending on model).
Remove the screws holding the hinge
to the top of the cabinet using a
screwdriver, 5/16″ socket driver or
wrench (depending on model).
Remove the top hinge from the cabinet
and lift the door up and off the lower
hinge pin. Set the door aside.
Remove the two screws from the bottom
hinge.
To replace the doors, reverse the order of
the above instructions.
CAUTION: It is very important that all hinge screws
are securely tightened to ensure a secure assembly
and prevent hinge slippage.

Preparing for Vacation
To maintain freezer in operation during
vacations, be sure your house power is not
turned off. For sure protection of freezer
contents, you may want to ask a neighbor
to check the power supply and freezer
operation every 48 hours.
For extended vacations or absences, you
may prefer to move your frozen foods to a
storage locker temporarily. If your freezer is
to be left empty, disconnect power cord
plug from wall outlet. To prevent formation
of odors, place open box of baking soda in
freezer and leave freezer door/lid open.
When the freezer is not operating, it can be
left in an unheated house or room without
damage to cabinet or mechanism.
Preparing to Move
Disconnect the power cord plug from
the wall outlet. Remove foods, defrost
(on Manual Defrost models) and clean
the freezer.
Secure all loose items such as grille and
shelves by taping them securely in place
to prevent damage.
Be sure freezer stays in upright position
during actual moving and in van. The
freezer must be secured in van to prevent
movement. Protect outside of freezer
with blanket.
In Case of Extended Power Failure
■ Keep freezer door/lid closed. Your
freezer will keep food frozen for 24 hours
provided warm air is not admitted.
■ If freezer is out of operation for 24 hours
or more, add dry ice. Leave ice in large
pieces. Add more ice as required.
WARNING: Handling of dry ice can cause
freezing of the hands—gloves or other protection
is recommended.
■ If dry ice is not available, move food to a
frozen food locker temporarily—until
power is restored.

Troubleshooting Tips
Installation Instructions Safety InstructionsOperating Instructions
Preparing to install the freezer.
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Freezer Location
Your freezer should be conveniently located for
day-to-day use in a dry, well-ventilated room.
Do not install the freezer where the temperature
will go below 0°F or above 110°F, because it will
not maintain proper temperatures.
Be sure to install your freezer on a floor strong
enough to support it when it is fully loaded.
The freezer must be solidly positioned on the floor
if it is to function at its best. Shims may be used to
accomplish this wherever the floor is too uneven.
If the place selected for the freezer is damp or
moist, place 2 X 4’s (51 mm X 102 mm) under its
entire length to assure adequate support.
Clearances
On all models, allow 3″ (76 mm) on top, back and
sides for proper air circulation.
Adjustable Legs (on Upright models)
Legs at the front corners of the freezer
should be set so the freezer is firmly
positioned on the floor, and the front is
raised just enough so the door closes easily
when opened about halfway.

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES.
LISEZ D’ABORD TOUTES LES DIRECTIVES.
AVERTISSEMENT!
N’utilisez cet électroménager que pour l’usage auquel il est destiné, comme expliqué dans
le présent manuel.
MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ
Lorsque vous utilisez un appareil électrique, observez toujours les mesures de sécurité de base,
y compris les suivantes.
■
■ Installez le congélateur conformément aux
directives d’installation avant de l’utiliser.
■
■ Ne laissez pas les enfants grimper, s’asseoir,
se tenir debout ni se pendre aux clayettes du
congélateur. Ils pourraient endommager le
congélateur et se blesser gravement.
■
■ Après la mise en route du congélateur, ne
touchez pas les surfaces froides de celui-ci,
surtout si vous avez les mains humides ou
mouillées. La peau risque d’adhérer à ces
surfaces très froides.
■
■ N’entreposez et n’utilisez pas d’essence ou
autres vapeurs et liquides inflammables à
proximité de cet appareil ou de tout autre
appareil électroménager.
■
■ Débranchez votre congélateur avant de le
nettoyer ou de le réparer, et avant de remplacer
l’ampoule.
REMARQUE : Nous vous recommandons vivement de
confier toute réparation à un technicien qualifié.
■
■ Lorsque vous réglez la commande sur OFF
(éteint), le courant alimentant le circuit
électrique de l’ampoule n’est pas coupé sur
les modèles avec une lampe intérieure.
■
■ Ne recongelez pas les aliments surgelés qui
ont complètement dégelé.
■
■ La quantité maximum d’aliments que vous
pouvez placer d’un seul coup dans votre
congélateur est environ 3 livres (1,5 kg) par
pied cube de volume intérieur. Au réglage
normal, la commande de température de votre
congélateur maintiendra une température
suffisamment basse pour la congélation de la
quantité recommandé d’aliments.
■
■ Soyez prudent lorsque vous enlevez la porte
d’un congélateur. Soyez particulièrement
prudent lorsque vous enlevez le couvercle d’un
congélateur coffre puisque la plupart de ceux-ci
sont à ressort. Communiquez avec un
représentant du fabricant pour connaître
la meilleure méthode d’enlèvement.
■
■ Ce produit est reconnu par la norme UL471.
