If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
Use the upright refrigerator/deep freezer only for its intended function. This appliance is designed for house-hold, non-commercial use only. Any other use will void the warranty.
Do not plug this upright refrigerator/deep freezer into the power source before setup is completed.
An empty upright refrigerator/deep freezer can be dangerous for children and small animals. If disposing of the upright refrigerator/deep freezer, remove gaskets, latches, and the entire upright refrigerator/deep freezer door from your unused appliance so that children or small animals cannot be trapped inside.
The upright refrigerator/deep freezer is an electrical appliance. To avoid serious injury from electrical shock, do not operate the upright refrigerator/deep freezer with wet hands, while standing on a wet surface, or while standing in water.
To avoid the risk of shock, the product should never be used in bathrooms, shower rooms, or in any other steamy or wet areas.
During installation, the power supply must not be excessively or dangerously bent or flattened.
Do not tamper with controls.
Make sure the power plug is placed fully and firm into the power source. If the wall receptacle you intend to use is not adequately grounded or protected by a time delay fuse or circuit breaker, have a qualified electrician install an outlet that is appropriate to local electrical codes and requirements.
Do not use multiple socket or an extension cord as it may overheat and become a risk of fire. Please ensure that the upright refrigerator/deep freezer is plugged directly into the electrical outlet.
The cord should be secured behind the unit and should not be left exposed or dangling
Make sure the power plug is clean before usage.
Make sure hands are dry when connecting the power plug. The appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounded plug on the power cord for your protection. Never modify, remove or attempt to repair the power plug yourself.
Never pull the power cord to disconnect the unit from an outlet. Grasp the plug directly and pull it from the outlet.
Never lift or carry the upright refrigerator/deep freezer by the power cord.

Performance may vary based on operational and ambient conditions.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard 3- prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance. Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. Do not use an adapter. The freezer should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating plate.

A 115 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15- or 20-amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required. This provides the best perfor- mance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.

Never unplug your freezer by pulling on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the freezer away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord

EXTENSION CORD

Because of potential safety hazards, it is strongly recommended that you do not use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3- wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rat- ing of the cord be 15 amperes and 115 volts. Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire, electric shock, or death.

NORMAL SOUNDS

Your new upright refrigerator/deep freezer may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Hard surfaces like the floor, walls can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the kinds of sounds that might be new to you and what may be making them.

Ratting noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or the water line, items stored on top of the upright refrigerator/deep freezer can also make noises.
The surface temperature of the compressor can reach 158 - 194°F when running.
The high efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high-pitched sound.
The noise emitted by the cooling fan on the condenser is a normal function.
It is normal for the fan in the power supply to run all the time.
As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your upright refrigerator/deep freezer.

STORING FROZEN FOOD
For safe food storage, allow 4 hours for the upright refrigerator/deep freezer to cool down completely. The upright refrigerator/deep freezer will run continuously for the first several hours. Foods that are already frozen may be placed in the upright refrigerator/deep freezer after the first few hours of operation.

Unfrozen food should NOT be placed until it has operated for 4 hours. Allow several hours after each one-step adjustment for the temperature to stabilize.
When loading, freeze only 3 pounds of fresh food per cubic foot of space at a time. Distribute packages evenly throughout the cabinet.
Storage recommendation printed on the packaging of frozen food by the manufacturers should be al- ways be followed.

FREEZING FRESH FOOD
Ensure that your freezing operations are carried out under the most hygienic conditions as freezing alone does not sterilize the food.

It is advisable to freeze the food by packing it into separate meal portions and not in bulk form. Never put hot or warm food stuffs into the upright refrigerator/deep freezer.
Prior to storing the frozen food, pack it in plastic bags, aluminum sheets or freezing containers and place into the upright refrigerator/deep freezer.
Fresh foods should not be stored together with frozen foods.
When the temperature is set below 32°F, do not keep glass-bottled drinks such as beer and lemonade or soda cans, as the glass and cans might shatter.
Do not use this deep freezer as a refrigerator when the ambient temperature is below 41°F as food can become frozen.

Note: For best performance, leave enough space inside the upright refrigerator/deep freezer cabinet for air to circulate around the packages.

An open box of baking soda in the upright refrigerator/deep freezer will absorb stale odors. Change the box every three months.

PROLONGED OFF PERIODS

If the upright refrigerator/deep freezer is not to be used for a long period of time, disconnect upright refrigerator/deep freezer from main power supply. Clean and dry the inside as instructed. Leave the converti-ble refrigerator/deep freezer door open to prevent any mold and mildew growth.
Usage Tips:

Keep the upright refrigerator/deep freezer’s door closed as much as possible. Try not to open the door too frequently, especially when weather is hot and humid
Ensure that the unit has sufficient clearance for ventilation
For normal household use, it is recommended to set the thermostat in the middle setting.
Before loading the upright refrigerator/deep freezer with an item, make sure they are cooled to ambi-ent temperature.
Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, defrost when frost is 3-5 mm thick

PREPARING FOR VACATION

To maintain upright refrigerator/deep freezer in operation during vacations, be sure your house power is not turned off. For extended vacations or absences, you may prefer to move your frozen foods to a storage locker temporarily. If your upright refrigerator/deep freezer is to be left empty, disconnect power cord plug from power source. To prevent formation of odors, place open box of baking soda in upright refrig-erator/ deep freezer and leave upright refrigerator/deep freezer door open.

IN CASE OF EXTENDED POWER FAILURE

Keep upright refrigerator/deep freezer door closed. This will keep food frozen or refrigerated for up to 24 hours provided warm air is not admitted.
If upright refrigerator/deep freezer is out of operation for 24 hours or more, add dry ice. Leave ice in large pieces. Add more ice as required.
If dry ice is not available, move food to frozen locker temporarily—until power is restored

NOTE: Handling of dry ice can cause freezing of the hands—gloves or other protection is recommended.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

The upright refrigerator/deep freezer should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat- producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight. Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the upright refrigerator/deep freezer. Overloading the upright refrigerator/deep freezer forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality or spoil. Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the upright refrigerator/deep freezer. This cuts down on frost buildup inside the upright refrigerator/deep freezer.

Freezer shelves should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the upright refrigerator/deep freezer less efficient. Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
