Freezer Location

Your freezer should be conveniently located for 

day-to-day use in a dry, well-ventilated room.
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 3² (76 mm) on top, back and

sides for proper air circulation.

(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.

These things are normal and
