Installation Instructions

PREPARING TO INSTALL THE FREEZER.

Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Freezer Location
Your freezer should be conveniently located for day-to-day use in a dry, well-ventilated room.
Do not install the freezer where the temperature will go below 0°F or above 110°F, because it will not
maintain proper temperatures.
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 3" (76 mm) on top, back and sides for proper air circulation.
