3. Leveling
Use the adjustable leveling legs to ensure the freezer is stable and level. Proper leveling is crucial for efficient operation and to prevent excessive vibration.
4. Initial Power-On
After placement and leveling, plug the freezer into a dedicated 115V AC outlet. Allow the freezer to stand for at least 2-4 hours before loading with food to allow the refrigerant to settle and the interior to reach the desired temperature.
Operating Instructions
1. Temperature Controls
The freezer features a 6-setting adjustable thermostat to maintain optimal freezing temperatures for various food items. Setting '1' is the coolest, and '6' is the coldest. Adjust the dial according to your storage needs and the ambient temperature.

Maintenance
1. Cleaning
To clean the interior, unplug the freezer and remove all food items. Wash the interior surfaces with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. Wipe dry with a soft cloth. The shelves can be removed for easier cleaning. For the exterior, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap, then dry thoroughly.
2. Defrosting
This freezer is not frost-free and will require manual defrosting periodically. When frost accumulation reaches about 1/4 inch (6 mm) thick, unplug the freezer, remove all food, and allow the frost to melt naturally. You can place towels at the bottom to absorb water. Once defrosted, clean and dry the interior before plugging it back in and returning food.
