(an solve yourself without the wasted time and possible ex-
Ijense of a needless service call. After all, who needs a service-
lnan to plug back in an electric cord that’s been accidentally
l)ulled out?
1. Locate it properly - For best performance, your freezer
should be located in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place out of
the direct sunlight and away from such heat sources as radi-
ators. Allow space above and at the back of freezer for air
to circulate -~ at least 3” above and 1” at the back between
the condenser and the wall. Also, check the strength of your
floor. Make certain it can support the weight of the freezer
when loaded.
Before you use your freezer
l
Be sure your freezer is properly installed in an appropriate
level area and a place suitable for the size, function and
protection of the freezer.
2. Keep
it
level - Level your freezer by adjusting the two
leveling legs at the front corners. (Adjust door-hinge side
first. 1 Turn left to raise the corner; right to lower it. When
freezer is sitting level, the freezer door (when o,?ened) will
stay at any open position. After the freezer has been filled,
recheck to see if it is sitting level.
l
Properly connect to electricity.
. Remove the Consumer Buy Guide label before freezer is
used.
NOTE: Before turning freezer on, you may want to wash the
inside of the freezer with a solution of two tablespoons bak-
ing soda to a quart of warm water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.

designed to perform.
Electrical Connection - Your freezer should be connected to
its own individual outlet, one not controlled by a wall switch.
Make sure the outlet provides 120 volt, 60 Hz AC current.

equipped with a three-pronged grounding plug. It should be
plugged into a matching grounded three-pronged type wall re-
ceptacle. Attach retaining clip for cord plug. Do not remove
the ground prong. See electrical requirements and ground-
ing instructions sheet for complete information.
