1.
Pick a safe place, indoors, away from
Room to open lid at back
flammables such as gasoline.
2. Check the strength of the floor. It should
hold the weight of a fully loaded freezer.
3. Allow at least 3 inches (7.5 cm) of air
space on both sides of the freezer and
2 inches (5 cm) between the back of the
freezer and the wall. Leave room above
the freezer to open the lid.
4. It should not be necessary to remove the
lid during installation. If, for any reason,
the hinges need adjustment, see the
label on the back of your freezer and
contact an authorized Whirlpool service
company.
NOTE: Do not cover the freezer with items
such as blankets, sheets, tablecloths, etc.
This reduces air circulation.
Completing the installation
Level the freezer from side to side and front
to back so that the lid will seal properly. Use
shim(s) to level the freezer if necessary.
Installing the defrost drain cover
(on some models)
1.
Remove defrost drain cover from the
literature package.
2. Push drain cover into drain hole
as illustrated.
