It is VERY IMPORTANT for your appliance  to 

be level in order to function properly. If the unit 

is not leveled during installation, the door/lid may 

be misaligned and not close or seal properly, 

causing cooling, frost or moisture problems.

•  To defrost appliance, always unplug unit first.
•  Never unplug the unit by pulling on the power 

cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull 

straight out from the receptacle.

•  Turning the control to OFF turns off the 

compressor, but does not disconnect power to 

other electrical components.

The appliance must have all bottom corners 

resting firmly on a solid floor. The floor must be 

strong enough to support a fully loaded unit.  

This Use & Care Guide provides general operating 

instructions for your model. Use the unit only as 

instructed in this Use & Care Guide. Before starting 

Choose a place that is near a grounded  

electrical outlet. 
For the most efficient operation, the appliance 

should be located where surrounding 

temperatures will not exceed 110°F (43°C). 

Temperatures of 32°F (0°C) and below will 

NOT affect operation. Additional compressor 

heaters are not 

recommended.
Allow space 

around the 

unit for good 

air circulation. 

Leave a 3 inch 

(75 mm) space 

on all sides 

of the unit 

for adequate 

circulation.

To level Upright Units:
After discarding crating screws, use a carpenter’s 

level to level the appliance from front to back. 

Adjust the plastic leveling feet in front, ½ bubble 

higher, so that the door closes easily when left 

halfway open.
