HOW TO OPERATE

Before first use, remove all adhesive tape from the drawers, shelves, trays and drain tube
plug.
INSTALLATION
1. The freezer should be placed on a completely flat surface. Allow 6 inches of space on each
side of the freezer and between the freezer and the wall. Also allow at least 28 inches of
space between the top of the freezer and the ceiling.
2. Choose a location for your freezer that is not exposed to sunlight, high temperature or
humidity, as humidity may stain and damage the freezer.
3. The appliance can be adjusted by rolling the two legs on the bottom right of the freezer if it
becomes unstable. Raise the freezer by rolling the adjustable feet clockwise.
4. The surface of the location where the freezer is installed should be firm and flat. If freezer is
not secured in a proper location, noise and vibration may occur. The noise may be increased
if the floor is not firm. If you have to position the freezer on a carpeted floor, place a sheet
underneath the freezer, such as plywood or a plastic mat, to prevent heat emissions from
ruining the carpet.
5. Make sure that legs are pressed firmly into the floor.
PLACEMENT OF FOOD
1. There should always be some space between items inside for air circulation.
2. Food should be kept in sealed containers to avoid becoming dry, spoiled or creating odors
in the freezer.
3. Hot food should be cooled down before placing into the appliance. Otherwise, bacteria will
grow in food.
4. Reducing the frequency of opening the doors can lower the electronic consumption.
NOTE: Do not use any electronic equipment inside the appliance.
ADJUSTING TEMPERATURE
The temperature of the freezer can be controlled manually by the thermostat dial. As a
general rule, it is best to set thermostat in the middle.
DEFROSTING
Heavy frost will effect the efficiency and performance of the freezer and can create
increased energy consumption. If the frost inside of the freezer gets as thick as ¼ inch, you
must defrost the freezer. Follow these steps to defrost the freezer:
1. Remove the storage basket and all food from the freezer.
2. Unplug the power supply cord.
3. Place a tray beneath the outer drain plug, then open the drain dial by rotating it 180
degrees.
4. Open the doors and wait for the appliance to thaw completely.
5. Clean up the water with dry towels.
NOTE: DO NOT use any other equipment or method to force the defrost process. It may ruin
the cooling system.
DISCONNECTING THE APPLIANCE
After a power failure the freezer can keep food cool for several hours if doors are kept shut.
If the power fails, do not put additional food into the freezer or open the doors.
